Yes, you wouldn't be able to do it with a fish, or anything moving at anything quicker than a snail's pace. (Hmm.. I guess snails will still be okay) Unless you can rig together a setup where you've got two cameras kind of taped together side-by-side, and get them to both use the same settings and take the picture at the same instant. THAT would work for fish, etc. and the distance apart would be fairly good too.

Stereo photographs are actually fairly easy, as you can read from other messages above. I've got a whole university degree where I did a huge amount of work analyzing stereo airplane/satellite images of land to do measurements of building heights and all sorts of stuff. Very neat, when you get into professional uses of stereo imagery. But that's a whole other.. uhh.. course.

Take care!
