It's pretty dark and murky at the bottom of most oceans, what with all the constant rain of dead creatures floating down from higher up - in all but the most tropical of oceans. It wouldn't be long before the glass is coated with a murky layer consisting of fishbones, algae, the corpses of ex-plankton, old boots, pirate treasure - all the usual stuff - what would be needed is some kind of wiping device so that the view of the pitch-black depths could remain unobscured. |
