Apologies for the long question
I recently read the book "extreme close up photography and focus stacking"
http://www.crowood.com/details.asp?isbn=9781847977199
One idea he had was to make glass observation cells and the results are quite good.
Obviously not essential for ground based inverts but for aquatic like this essential.

(not my photo hence why I linked it)
However
a) I don't like the idea of making these
b) I often travel abroad to visit family. This photo IMHO could have been a lot better if it had been in clear plastic/glass box and the sensor had not been damaged .

However where I took it was 4 flights,2 buses and a 30 min jeep flight from my home and a glass box might not have survived the journey
So are there any plastic boxes that could be used? What do people think about these ones? Has anyone tried something like this?

The ideal solution would be a plastic box that comes with some sort of food free, but I doubt that would be good enough quality.
