Cool Toy that may be fun for the tank

Jakks Eyeclops Bionic Eye

Has anyone seen one of these in action. It may be fun to look at some of the micro life in our tanks. The only thing I can't tell from watching the video is if it would work for things that were not right up against the glass.

I dunno, after watching the video several times it would seem that the children were holding the device directly to the subject mater. This makes me wonder if the "eye" were a few inches away if there would be a gross lose of magnification or clairity. Just guessing though. Cool toy for sure, and if it did work through the glass it would be great fun to use.

That was my worry. OK someone with kids get one of these and let the rest of us know how it works :rollface:

I know, you told me the other night. Now I have to get one.... It's funny how every time you talk to anyone you end up adding more things to your wish list.
