Exclamation Aquarium visual noise?

I've been lurking for years and years, but the sudden activity has motivated me to join the thread to say that I'm completely thrilled that 3.0 is on the horizon.

One quick comment/question:

I'm a huge fan of virtual aquariums. However, in some ways they seem almost too perfect. When I was keeping saltwater aquariums, I would set my filter's powerhead to generate millions of tiny bubbles, most would quickly rise to the top of the tank, but many would gently float through the tank on the current. It added a "randomness" that I found kind of hypnotic. Adding similar (tiny - very tiny) "floaters" would add an awesome level of realism to 3.0. Any plans for something like this? A little visual noise?

Thanks again and I can't wait to buy v3.0 when it is released! Great work!
