I think the issue would be that putting the crystals next to the paper clip/tank makes the object appear invisible, but how do you make the crystals themselves invisible?

If you see 4 huge crystals coming at you, you'll probably suspect that there's a tank between them.
Well, duh. You put crystals next to them.
