Resin means your fish etc are trapped for ever.  There is a re-usable material you can get.  I'll post details later today.

Yes, the aquarium is from the Hengel Family!
And it´s much more than a single aquarium, it´s a complete Sea World Park.
It´s marvellous!
I loved it!  :love:

Here are two links about the same product:

http://www.alwayshobbies.com/Store/Dolls-Houses/1$112-Scale/Finishing-Products/Scenic-Water

There is another product I'm looking for information on.

Daniela: I know and it is indeed an awesome Diorama. I was not trying to dimish it in the slightest. But up till now I hadn't been thinking really about an aquarium yet and the way they made theirs is just so beautiful that I really want to make something similar.

Playmofire: That really looks like marvelous stuff but filling something similar to the Hengel's Aquarium would be a very costly ordeal indeed. I think the Aquarium is something we will do at a later stage anyway because there are still "some" items for us to aqcuire. So I will also keep researching possibilities but thanks a lot for pointing me in this direction!

the scenic water is just a great resin playmofire. i didn't knew it.  :o
to remelt it do you think the klickies trapped inside will stand the heat?  ???
and how do you prevent them from partially "gluing" to this material - is there a sort of a primer that guarantees a "dry" immersion?
  ???

To melt the scenic water you just put it in  hot water so the klickies should be quite safe.
