      Yep - Rosie shoved her nose in it and blew bubbles underwater just after I took the photo

        That would make a great TV Jeanied. I would be tempted to do something with the inside first. Maybe a plastic paint or break up some tiles & have a mosaic effect.

            I have hammerite in black or white by the way - and in a sludgy brown to match what is there already.

              Are they fish-friendly paints? I've no idea if there's such a thing...........

                - apparently yes, once it has dried thoroughly - according to a Koi forum

                  Hammerite is totally safe Jeanied once dry.

                    So now I am wondering which colour the fish would like better, black or white?

                      Blue...........sorry, that wasn't an option
                      You'd see them better against white but it would also show up the algae, muck, more

                        Go with black. As VC says, white will only go green & it won't matter if you are installing a TV. The TV will also need cleaning every couple of weeks as it will get a green coat with the sun.

                          Jeanied, when you find a suitable vessel to use for the TV, post a pic & we'll try and fathom out how to fit it.

                              Yet another update:

                              After several weeks tinkering with the inlet/filtration from the stream, yesterday I decided to clean one of the TV's to assess the clarity of the water. To say I'm chuffed is an understatement. In pics 3 & 4, you can actually pick out a few of this years hatchlings. Apologies for the pic quality, my hands were dropping off it was that cold..............

                                They are really cool. Seeing as you are very talented & practical . How about excepting a little challenge ? Rip the guts out of an old CRT TV ( and replace the screen and fill in all the ventilation round the back..... The list goes on.)for your next fishy viewing system .
