If you are shooting with one strobe, then position it above the camera, angled in towards the housing as shown below. Using this technique ensures you light your subject with that nice soft, beautiful edge lighting, which can really make you photos pop. Strobe light is the softest and nicest at the edge of the cone, while light in the middle of the cone is sharper and harsher.

On the plus side, this strobe positioning also provides some benefits in terms of light quality. If you are getting washed out photos with large light patches in them, then you have to bring your strobes back towards the housing, and then either angle them out more or pull them a bit more out to the sides. The other issue you will typically run into is the strobe light hitting your macro port too directly, causing reflections on your lens and port and leading to very washed-out, unusable photos. However, as long as you get very close to your subject, you should not have any issues, unless the visibility is particularly terrible. Note that this strobe positioning will create more backscatter than "traditional" strobe positioning. You just have to angle your strobes inwards, as per the below diagram.
However, if you can find an angle which provides about 6" to 12" (or more) of open water between the subject and the substrate behind it, then you can shoot this with a black background (without using a snoot). If a subject is right in front of the substrate, then no amount of strobe position monkeying will create a black background. Any subject which has some sort of substrate behind it will typically have that substrate lit by your strobe light, which can reduce the quality of your image. When shooting macro with forward-facing strobes, it can be quite hard to find subjects with lots of clear water behind them, making it difficult to shoot black background images.
