I worked on this image since the first beta of povray 3.5 came out, with a
long wait for a photon bug to be fixed, but I eventually found a workaround.

350 fish, some spherical bubbles, thousands upon thousands of sphere sweeps
for the seaweed, an f_ridged_mf for the normal of the water, and a heckuva
lot of media and surface photons. About 40 hours to render the 1400 x 1050
version, although I set the priority down to do other things during the day.
