Want to make a Resin Aquarium Fish Tank? Here's how

#resinaquarium #resinfishtank
Hey lovelies, continuing on in my Ocean series we are creating our deepest piece yet. A Resin Aquarium or fish tank. I loved the idea of trying this and despite the poor quality fish lol I still love the results.
I use Vista Turbo resin for the thin layers and finish it with Vista Ocean for the final inch layer.
Check out Jedrek's Channel .. His work is of course another level ... well, another 10 levels away from mine but his aquariums are so cute. Here are 2 videos from him.

You did a fantastic job Claire. Your commitment to this piece really paid off. How sweet that your grandson now has it displayed in his room ❤️

[@craftienannie2013]

Claire this is amazing, the bubbles are effective, they look like they should be there. I can see air bubbles in my aquarium, x

[@copperowlwoodturning5929]

So beautiful, Claire. This is spectacular. It has all of the elements of an aquarium, but the inhabitants live forever. 😊😊😊

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

And… it doesn’t need constant cleaning!! 😉

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thank yoooo Rob ❤️❤️❤️

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

@@mattersofthehartbynat8815 🤣🤣🙌🙌 so true

[@ps3845]

Claire this is awesome! Can you imagine it with a light in it ? But love it !

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Ohhhh Paula thankyoooo so much yesss I totally wanted lights but lights still make me nervous lol

[@Toonpish]

Claire I was so sad when I saw the scratches 😞😢 but it doesn’t take away from the fact that this piece is absolutely beautiful 😍 I love it and totally get why your grandson wanted it 😀😀😀 love it 🥰 great video Claire and your honesty is so refreshing 😀👍 most KZbin people would have glossed over the bad bits and I love that you show people them so they can learn too ❤️❤️❤️

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

Hey Claire… what an amazing piece of artwork… just stunning and I definitely want to give this a go! But… you have a grandson??? No way!! I was absolutely gobsmacked… 100% total honesty… I would have been shocked enough to know that you even had teenage children, let alone adult kids and grandchildren!!! I’m really sorry, but this is one of the biggest shocks to me! 😯 You just don’t look old enough!! ♥️♥️🇦🇺

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Heyyyyyyyy Nat .. thank you so much ❤️❤️ really glad you love it .. well technically I'm old enough lol I turned 45 a week ago ... but I do not have children xxx My hubby's daughter has two babies aged 4 and 16months ❤️❤️ but plenty girls I went to school with are already Grandparents 🤣🤣 I just skipped having kids. Lol

[@mattersofthehartbynat8815]

@@ClairesCraftyCorner well I’m shocked, to say the least!! And I hope I didn’t offend you in any way!! I first became a grandmummy at 45, so yes, thats totally feasible but… I just found it very hard to believe that you’re 45!! And I’m not trying to be nice, I swear! If you had of asked me, I would have said you looked between 30-35… gods honest truth!! ♥️♥️🇦🇺

[@rebeccahyatt7789]

I LOVE THAT! I have real fish, and you don't need to clean the tank for your fish!!!LOL I love that little turtle in there. This is adorable. YOU, have a grandchild???? I was SO surprised to hear that. You look too young to be a grandma, girl!!!🐟🐠🐢🐚

[@daniel..cooper]

Beautiful work, love this Claire 😀

[@janeenl9167]

Some clear beads placed strategically would give the appearance of bubbles coming up from the bottom. I think that would look awesome with the awesome job you already completed! Watching from Texas, USA.

[@annagravante3884]

Oh how I love this it's stunning has all the elements of an aquarium spectacular Claire love how the colours pop what an amazing artist you are thougherly enjoyed your video thank you so much for sharing ❤️ 😀

Wowweee!! This is so cute and reminds me of a much fancier version of a piece that always sat on the desk in my grandfather's den. 🥰🥰

[@texas8322]

Yup, another project I love watching you try out.

[@SkitchBean_aka_Christine_E]

Claire, I love this piece. I have been toying with the idea to make something similar. Thank you for sharing your ideas. You are such an inspiration. ❤

That is beautiful Claire!!!!!

[@anniek.108]

Wow this is absolutely stunning! Great job

[@elsik2332]

Claire this is gorgeous!! I love the base and the turtle the most, the depth really works so well. And even if the fish were a bit cheap and wonky they really come alive with the placement. And the base is just a stroke of genius.

[@ilsabailey8195]

WOW!! that is wonderful it would look great in a porthole frame. That is a great idea with using clay to help with leveling. Thanks for the tip

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thankyooooooo babe ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@tinapower9533]

Love that

[@trishscreativecrafts]

Love love love this! Also, you can set this on top of a base light and it can be a cool night light or just cool light-up decor! :)

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thank yooooo Trish .. yes I did imagine lights would be fantastic on this 😍😍

[@maryellenrichards391]

So very cute! I could t see any bubbles.

Awesome 🙂

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

Oh, you are so fun to watch and listen to! Just discovered your channel, and subscribed. I love that mini aquarium...you did a GREAT job! 👍😊 It's such a fun piece, and you make it look very doable without spending a ton of money on expensive marine "stuff". Thank you so much for the video! 😊

[@fairyspunfibers9098]

P.S. I love Louise's and Jedrek's channels! They're both amazing artists!

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thankyoooo so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@wildflowerhandmadeart1750]

I love vista resin. You really don't need to rub it into whatever your adding. It just works itself around everything. It's the same with deep pours and dried flowers 💐

[@gabrielleschmidt1435]

🎉This is SO Cool 😎

[@charleysgoodies290]

This is amazing! Well done! Wish my chest was strong to take resin crafts . Xxx

[@GrandmaWendyCrafts]

Love this just amazing so much depth looks so realistic 😍 ❤️ 🪸🐚🦞🐡🐠❤️❤️❤️

[@art_by_amber]

So so so so beautiful 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@stacy_thecraftycat6611]

That turned out so cool! Only thing I can think might make it better, aside from better quality creatures lol, is maybe use some bubble looking additives so you can add bubbles but exactly where you want them like coming out of the turtles mouth or something. I’ve done that before. Controlled bubbles! Lol

[@andrewmedhurst680]

Wow

[@snugglebuns6969]

What will u think of next, missy? ADORABLE 💜💜💜

[@catherinekenny6500]

Absolutely stunning 😍 ✨️ 👌 😍 Xxx

[@johnibrazzell764]

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@darlenejohnson2662]

Amazing! Is it possible to do this and make coasters? I think the fish look adorable!

[@starrspoter]

my only prob is i wouldnt want to wait so long to get the finished thing lol.i like to make things quick lol. for some layers could u use the fast curring resion? and does it have to be the same resin all the way from start to end?

[@starrspoter]

the mold u used for this project where did u get that from? i always used to get lets resion stuff but then they didn't always send to Australia

[@mariecaldwell4855]

what size circle mold did you use for the fish tank?

[@jahankhan644]

Almost 1 hour remaining

[@FirebladeCBR]

Would you be able to do this in a metal cake tin or would it not come out? I’d love to try it but can’t get a decent size mould with a decent sized price 🤣xx

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Ahhhh it would never come out sadly 😢😢😢

[@starrspoter]

is that like a pot mold?

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

It's more like a cake mould 😁

[@starrspoter]

the molds and shapes is that is pounds so i can work out money in aussie

[@jahankhan644]

Claire I am waiting soooo much time 7 hours pending

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Thanks Jahan 🙌🙌

[@larnalpc7858]

What resin did you use here please

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

I use Vista Turbo .. and Vista Ocean for the final inch x

[@sherryleggett1612]

Just in case anyone wants to try a real one. I had a beautiful vase that my Beta lived in. I thought it would be easier to clean and the plants wouldn’t die if I resined them into the bottom of the vase. Dont do it! My Beta was dead in a week. Coincidence?

[@BlueGrey-sq5vu]

Pretty cool video ❤ , just alot of talking lol. New subscriber tho

[@lauriewilson4741]

6 hours 🙀😱💀😞

[@ClairesCraftyCorner]

Yayyyyy

[@tjsims8891]

This is the kind of aquarium I need since I can't have a real one with 3 cats!! I wonder how big you could make one??. Wouldn't it be awesome to make a huge one that could sit on the floor!! 😆🐠🐟🪼

[@ravynalexander1895]

I am sooooo excited! This is amazing ❤ I have been practicing making fish ponds with my resin and this made it so simple 🐟🐠🦞🐢
