Opening and Making MiniVerse Lifestyle Wave 2

if it's any consolation, the bubbles do add realness cos fish tanks have aerators to help add oxygen to the water 😌

Nemo's dad is Marlin. I love how you created Marlin escaping to go and search for his son! Very clever and looks very cool!

i love GB noticing science happen and pointing it out. The resin is foggy from the UV heat! 💕

I love your creativeness with the tank at the end, where the fish was jumping out. That was awesome!

I'm loving this idea of the fish coming out. I like that the coral is elevated as well gives it more motion like everything is falling out.

I've been making the fish bowls and tanks for a while now, and watching other youtubers do it. I think there's no way to avoid air bubbles no matter what you do. One time I got a fish tank and I let it sit uncured for a week just to get all the air out. It looked perfect before I cured it, but as soon as I did, giant bubbles formed. I think it's just the nature of this kind of resin. I've also tried mixing the gravel into the resin, setting it, then setting a layer of resin on top, then doing the rest in layers. Still got bubbles.

You have a pretty extreme black light. I think the resin curing generates a lot of heat, which results in a foggy look to the glass

The clownfish jumping out of the tank was genius!! You always take these to the next level!

Hello! As someone who works with epoxy for my business often, just wanted to share some insight for your bubbles issue. :] Because you are inserting the plant, and placing pebbles around it, tiny pockets for air are forming, when the resin is activating and curing the air is being displaced, this is why it did not occur with your fish, and just your plant, your fish was placed on top of tightly packed pebbles, from the tip of your tweezers. As for the clouding, this can be due to a couple of things, 1. the pebbles could have loose powder on them from rubbing together, this might be very unnoticeable until it is picked up and suspended in the resin, [ you could potentially negate this by rinsing and drying them, but that is hard to say without knowing what they are made of.] or swapping them all together for a fully dry and washable type of crushed stone. [ i would suggest crushed labradite for a very interesting look, as well as easy to clean residue off of and dry] the second reason this could be happening is if the plastic the "tank" is created from isn't made to withstand heat or resin, creating a clouded or fogged look when the heat reaction occurs during curing. Hope this helps! Oh! And finally, if you intended to try this again with a more controlled bubble look, you could reverse your technique, and insert the fish instead of the plant, which in turn would create bubbles around the fish, i think this is an act of free forming, so you will have to have faith in your eye for execution as well as your ability to roll with it. But this could be of use for future projects to create kenetic energy in these pieces such as the free flowing food pieces. :]

Hey GB! First of all...Great video! I love watching you be a little creative and thinking outside the box with the designs! The second fish is called a Beta fish and yes, you cannot put 2 males in a tank together because they are very territorial and will sometimes fight to the death. You can however put multiple females in a tank together and they'll be fine, but the female beta fish are kinda plain and boring looking. As far as the bubbles, you were on the right track with pouring in layers and setting the resin, but also continuing to pour small layers curing it each time all the way to the top. Another trick us "resiners" use is putting things that we're going to add to the resin (ie:the fish and the plant/coral) in a little bit of resin completely covering it and let it sit there for a minute or two first before adding it in, without curing it, it seems to coat things so that air bubbles can't form or escape from little air pockets. Hope that helps! Glad you're feeling better and keep making the cool videos! ❤❤❤

I have fish and we have this bubble thing that makes bubbles come out of everywhere on the statue and the fish. Love it.😊

I think for the fish tank you have to do it in layers to avoid bubbles :)

Bubbles look nice! I’ve seen some creators fill the entire tank with resin and let it sit for 24 hours or more. Supposedly helps dissipate the bubbles but I’ve still seen them get a few smaller ones. I’ve also seen people using epoxy resin use a match or flame to get rid of bubbles. Not sure if that’s an option for UV resin though!

the bubbles in the fish tank make it look more realistic

Fish number 1 looks better with that bubbles ❤️

I haven't seen your channel before this and really like the format of not having to wait for each ball to get all the plastic layers off first. Everything is nice and to the point of getting to the fun parts of the items. I'm definitely going to subscribe.

The bubbles are really nice, I can't think of a healthy fish in a tank without the air/filters in their tanks.

That levitating anemone is actually some great character to the tank, it makes it look like Marlin wants to find his son so bad. He created a whirlpool to launch himself out, and the anemone is being sucked into the center of the tank

Hi, GB! 1) Great you're well now. 2) The Nemo one is a great idea, kudos. 3) Have you seen the big sets? There are a pizza party and an ice cream party, and even a big store with loads of ingredients in a nice case

I think it looks good with the bubbles in side because water makes bubbles so I like I think you did a good job 👍....
