Night Viewing of Tank

Hi, wonderful wise fish people :)
I am wondering if anyone knows how I might look at my tank at night without freaking out my fish? I never see my lobster - he only ventures out at night (i saw a blur of him once diving back into his cave!) and I would like to watch the night life in my tank sometimes.
Could a black light be used? Or how about a flashlight with colored cellophane over it? ( i remember we used these once on a stargazing trip because the colored cellophane (it was red or blue i forget) kept the light from the flashlights from dilating our pupils.)
I don't have any night-vision goggles handy, so I thought maybe there is some other method for watching my tank at night??

Every time I hear about night vision goggles I think about the weird guy serial killer in "Silence of the Lambs". Creeps the heck out of me.
They would be great for night viewing of the tank though.

It puts the lotion in the basket or it gets the hose again.

Yup, red cellophane. I think you will be suprised at the amount of "NIGHT LIFE" that you will see in your tank. Keep us posted. Oh yeah, how about some pics?
