Decor Question

[BHamilton]

I've had tanks for a while but have never jumped in to this yet. I have many model cars. Is there any way to make them safe for decor?

Good query...

china, paint, lead

I suppose you could roll the dice, boil the car?

dip it in some sort of clear coat ?

someone may chime in...

did you try searching aquarium safe model cars?

I didn’t but I’ll look into it

Good coat of clearcoat, or polyurethane. Well, multiple coats, make sure there are no holes in it and thick. Should be fine. Could be kinda cool.

Don't really see many people doing anything out of the ordinary with their tanks, it's always either natural with driftwood and plants or fluoro gravel and cheap ornaments for the kids.

Not that mine is that interesting, it's the first one.
