Hey very cool, Yossam! I already love it!
I had to stop a similar project, because it doesn't match my animation and I have not enough time.

Some suggestions:
Perhaps some suspended solids and some plants to algae? You'll need a high DoF but then they could give the image a deep look.

Good luck! I hope you go on with this - as I said: I love it!

Cool. Some rocks and plants at the bottom and perhaps some fish if u got some would be great.

Gonna have to make the plants a whole lot denser............barely can see them.  :-[


Why do I have a black outline around the large rocks in the background................GSID?

Yup, and a greater variety in the scale as well as more pops of different types, some free floating as seaweed will do.But y got the basic underwater look fine.

It's probably the same as in this thread:

With some combinations of render settings, there's a bug in the renderer that causes objects obscured by atmosphere/cloud have outlines. The outline can be prevented by enabling Defer atmo/cloud or by rendering with max samples (non-adaptive) pixel sampling. For this scene I'd recommend just turning on Defer atmo/cloud.

Just because milk is white doesn't mean that clouds are made of milk.
