In addition to the techniques outlined by those who have already replied, you should also take a good cleaning cloth to polish off the greasy marks left on the glass by members of the public. I use a macro lens rather than a wide angle and press the lens hood up against the area I have just polished.
Cleaning the glass surface was already mentioned, but you are right, the public usually smears the glass within minutes after it has been cleaned by staff. :thumbup:

You might also find a rubber lens shade to be useful - it can be pressed against the glass yet allow you a little leeway to tilt side to side (or up/down) and still prevent the reflection from the aquarium glass from hitting the lens.

Ive tried shooting thru the glass a few times. I never got results that I wanted. I like the idea of a rubber lens shade. I'll be heading to seaworld in a few months, I may look for a shade for that trip. Thanks, and again very useful info here on UHH
Mamyia has some rubber lens hoods. I just bought a 77mm one . It will allow for some side to side mobility.

02Ra, are you using this lens hood on a Mamyia lens or will it screw into a Canon 77mm?
