i have found that some of the large ornaments are very expensive,
so i have tried to find a cheaper solution.

We have lots of left over pool pipe so i drilled some holes into them and connected it bits together with wire.

it looked a bit dodgy so i spray painted it black.

I guess what im say is, will this ornament be able to be used or what coud i do to make it usable, or is it trash.

i think the two things you mention that would worry me,
wire and spray paint, 2 possible killers?

I agree... I paint nothing that goes in the tank... And wire unless aluminum, rusts... I wouldn't risk it!

that is what i thought too...any idea what kind of paint
did you use....if it is marine paint....then perhaps
it will be okey...but for wire...it will oxidized and
prone to entanglement...

Thanks fot the advice, i guess its junk then.
