I am trying to understand what that is, is it to hang inside your tank to place a small coral and be able to take a macro shot? is that a boriqua design? :D

Roger its an enclosure for your slr, U can take some niiice pics of your corals underwater , and if u ad a macro the possibilities are endless.
Its a cheap underwater enclosure for your camera.
 
What it is a box design for taking picture underwater, but not completely submerged. I think the black acrylic is to shield oncoming light so all thats left is the image or view of the coral/thing that is being looked at.

Basically this is a cheap alternative for anyone who has ever wanted to take top down pictures without spending so much money on a waterproof enclosure for their camera. In some cases, an underwater enclosure does not even exist.

Ok....I may be a little slow, but I can not figure out how it works.
Please explain....
OK OK OK the camera goes inside of the enclosure -the enclosure goes in the water with the camera inside- then u take your pictures underwater. GOT IT LOL

I've always known is as a "viewing box." Have used them to see in the midts of all the ripple.

If youre worried about dunking the camera in water, you dont really have to put the camrea _inside_ the box, you can take a picture from half arm distance, standing on top of the tank. Snap a clear picture thru the bottom of the box as the box is a few inches submerged in water, but not entirely. The handle is a clever idea to keep your hands dry which is better since you're handling a digi cam that shouldnt be getting wet.
