Where can I find those coral viewing glasses?

[Mattyice008]

One of my LFS had these yellow tinted glasses that make corals look crazy. Any idea where I can find them online? I saw some at s recent frag swap too

Ive never seen yellow ones, but I have seen the regular round floating plexiglass type that just make it so you can see the frag very nicely even in the moving water. Havent really ever shopped for them online but a local store called "That Pet Place" carries them in their store, so you could probably buy them from their online store also, just google them.

I've wondered if the "blue blocker" glasses would work. I have also used yellow shooting glasses from a sporting goods store. Although probably not exactly like the coral glasses.

They are safety glasses for looking at lasers. I will try to post a link in a few

get some polarized glass. should do the same thing. blocks the blue

 

[Lokipsl]

Polarized glasses will not do the same thing. The safety glasses make your corals pop with color. It's like going from daylights to atinics only. The brand my lfs carries are from pyramex

 

[Mattyice008]

Well I checked that website out but there's tons of different glasses idk which ones they are

 

[Lokipsl]

They are called ztek by pyramex. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000F...383175330&sr=8-2-fkmr1&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70 P.S they only work under blue LEDs. Everything else just looks like your looking at your tank with orange glasses on

Crappy phone pic time!!!! Pink zippers under blue LEDs

I know. I know, but hey, I told you they were crappy....

Now with the glasses over the camera lol!

wait, so the purpose of these glasses is to take pictures of corals?

 

[Mattyice008]

I remember the ones at the fish store being yellow. If I buy these orange ones they will do the same thing? And its only 3$!?

I was just trying to give people a example on what they do, but I guess you could take photos with them.

My fiancée ordered me a couple I pairs. They make the corals pop under blue LEDs. I have a tank with t5s and they do very little. My tank with LEDs looks awesome when I switch the whites off. Some my acans look completely different. Hopefully these don't catch on with online retailers. Wysiwyg(with glasses) lol
