DIY reef safe decor

[jna042404]

What type of sealer would I use over plastic? Specifically a small toy to make it salt water safe. I've read everything from silicone type 1 to UV resistant epoxy to you don't even need to seal plastic... I'd like to know from someone who has actually done this with no issues what I would need to do/use. It would be to place in a 10 gallon reef tank! Thanks in advance!!

You still play with toys? me too! those plastics are generally reef safe. what's not reef safe are any metal pieces.

BTW, welcome to r2r!

An action figure

Cool! those are generally made of abs and acrylic paints.

Is it Thor?

I was thinking more along the lines of Daryl Dixon;D

He dies tomorrow night.

I know. And every woman on earth will cry

 

[cromag27]

I don't know for sure.

I don't know for sure.

Haha. Me either. I've gone over this scenario a hundred times (you know, because it's real life) and my gut tells me I won't like this. Haha. Fingers crossed!

I watched the preview and I can see where the blood spatter is on the ground. I then watched last season's episode to see who was kneeling there. I am such a geek.

So who is your real guess? I'm really leaning on Daryl having the biggest impact- but of course, Glen dies in the comics this way, but I'm not sold on it being Glen.

My guess is Carl. Just a gut feeling.

I don't want to spoil it.

I have Hollywood connections and I can usually get early screeners for movies and premiere TV shows. but not for this episode! I was so bummed.

Bummer. I guess you'll have to wait like the rest of us! I'm so stoked. And so many people say they won't watch if a certain character dies, etc. ...and I'm just like "I'll watch it if they all die and it's just random walkers eating things". The struggle is real.

Is there anyway you can provide the type of plastic on the decor you bought? You can try calling the manufacture and find out. You may not need to seal it. Also welcome to the forum!

Good idea. I'll see what I can find out.

I'll watch regardless who dies.

Well if rick or darrel dies im out =). I think its maggie, according to "comic" should be glenn but we all know how that goes. Anywho, yea fine out. A majority of plastics are reef safe regardless
