Do you have a Magnifying glass?

[purplegorilla]

Do you ever use a magnifying glass to view your speciments? I am looking for a high quality magnifying glass so I can inspect my corals for any changes or diseases. I went to office depot the other day but they only had 2x and in plastic. Do you know where I can find either 4x and in glass locally?

I would try a craft store such as JoAnn Fabrics, Michael's or Hobby Lobby. Check in the needwork (embroidery/cross-stitch) section.

I use one several times a day to inspect my tanks. This is close to the one I use, but my wife doesn't remember where she got it.

I think I actually got my glass lens at WalMart...

I got a cheap one at the Dollar Store, but I would not recommend it unless you like funhouse mirrors.
