Help me decide between these two camera's (low budget)

[Chaetomorpha]

Ok, getting tired of taking blurry pictures with my android phone, but do not want to spend a lot of money on a camera as it will only be used for the occasional tank pictures and videos. Which one of these is the best one for me to buy? is it worth spending almost double for the panasonic? or should I stick with the basic olympus?

Honestly, I would not go with either. I went with a little pricier point and shoot camera and it takes awesome pics. It was 30 bucks more than the panasonic. I got the canon powershot sx40 hs. You can get it for 384 with a bunch of goodies and free shipping right now.

Thanks took a look at it, only thing that I notice is that its not waterproof, is that really a big necessity for taking aquarium pics? would it be fine just getting a better camera and taking it from the outside through the glass?

I have noticed that waterproof cameras really don't take that great of a pic.

Here is a pic with my new camera and keep in mind I'm still learning:
