Wouldn't you need an algae eater in the tank to keep the glass crystal clear? A user preference to configure a pane of dirty glass would add realism.
Reasons people don't watch Star Trek:
60% - It’s for nerds.
39% - The show’s stupid.
01% - My parents were killed by Klingons and it's still too painful.
