      This question comes from Michelle:

      Could you show how to cast resin in a fishbowl? I have a 12″ wide fish bowl and want to fill it1/3 to 1/2 full as part of an art project. I have a tall centerpiece that will “breach the water” as well as other pieces of coral, etc. I also want to suspend “fish” at various levels. I fear that the resin won’t harden due to the depth. Also, I fear that multiple layer pours to suspend the fish will leave a visual of the layers. I’d love to see a simple example of a resin pour of fish in a fishbowl.

      Hi Michelle,

      I suggest starting with this article: https://resinobsession.com/resin-tutorials/mint-tin-koi-pond It’s the same concepts as what you want to do, but on a smaller scale. To minimize the lines you see between layers, pour the next layer of resin while the previous layer is in the gel phase.
