I'd like to color the water, is there a recommended way to do this? Are there ways that could damage/ruin the tank?

You can get this directly from waterrower.com 1-800-852-2210 Here is the info from their site. Bill at Lifestyle Sports A blue tinted dye for the water in your tank.Colors your water and enhances the look of your WaterRower.*Note: If you use the blue dye in your tank, it is not recommended that you use the chlorine tablets. Discoloration may occur if you do so. Instead, please visually monitor water quality and change when necessary. It is recommended that dyed water is changed out every year.

I honestly don't know. I'd probably contact the manufacturer who, I'm certain, would be able to address this question. I wouldn't want to void any warranties by coloring the water and would want to make certain that the company says it's fine.

ha! you prob want to talk to the water rower guys directly - deep on pigment it could stain the tank - but I'm sure a few drops of food coloring won't hurt

As mentioned before it is probably best to contact the manufacturer about how to do this without damaging the tank. I know WaterRower does carry a blue dye kit for their rowers.

No I wouldn't you need something with a bigger reserve tank. It will either burn up the motor from constant running. Or you will drain the air before it has a chance to compress more air resulting in a crappy paint job

Lay it on a table and break it with something like a screwdriver or something. Put about 1/6 of it in. It works by raising the ph, which kills the fungus on the betta. You can do partial water changes every day. Maybe halfish. I didn't fully empty it. But keep putting a shard of it every day, and within a few days it'll look better. Continue to use a little bit a few days after you think it is fully healed just to be sure. Also, make sure the betta has good water conditions and is warm. Cold water is bad for bettas, but in a 1.2 gallon you probably won't need a heater. If you have any more questions or concerns, feel free to email me at caindanielle @ rocketmail . com.

can the refrigerator paint be tinted or mixed with other water based paint?

I would think you could use water with no problem. Paint is a very poor product in it though. It just can't seem to work very well.

After my response to you I watched two youtube videos on refilling it as suggested by another post to you, using regular water. It can be done and it looks easy enough to do.

try red and blue sharpie markers, simply color the hot water side red and the cold water side blue. half red half blue.

Yes you can but rinse it really good before you put it in there. And it's more brown then black, which really bothered me, so Fyi in case you want a certain color substrate. You can definitely add more but rinse it very good or it will make your tank look like crap and clog your filter.

I may not be as much help as you would like because my project was much smaller. I bought two gallons to do a 17 foot speedboat, where I went up the sides of the floor a foot and back in the well. I did two coats and used less than one gallon. By the way, if you don't like the colors that are offered, I bought the light gray and took it to our local hardware store where they tinted it for me just like they would've done with a white base coat. It came out just a little darker than the sample in the store but not much. I was very happy and almost matched my boat color perfectly. Sorry I couldn't have been more help.

You can use charcoal. Or anything. It works pretty nicely. Though it may smear on to another page. It won't bleed through.

Use a thick cheap foam roller. Dip it in paint and roll it on the trey repeatedly until it's soaked into the sponge and very little is left on the surface and lightly roll it on. Put several light Coates on this way and use a pin to clear any holes that may get plugged before they dry. This way is tedious but it looks great when complete

This one is just bleach, so the water will be clear. There is another one that does make the water blue, if you would prefer that instead.

I have no clue and gave up trying after a day. Try looking on youtube. I also found that the fish really, really don't like rapid changes in lighting or colors. Slow fades are ok if that's your thing, but rapid changes gave some of my fish what looked like seizures, so I'd suggest picking a color for mood lighting and leave it there. Change the color as you like, but don't have it cycling rapidly between colors. I feel the health of the animal is more important than my amusement.

You'd just need to bleach the bottom part of the shirt before applying the dye. I'd recommend bleaching it, washing, drying, and then starting the dying process.

I just used water to mix it to the consistency that I needed. Using Latex paint depends on what you're using the paint for.

Use a polypropylene style drum since those are easily found in unused and food grade quality unlike the steel ones. Also try and keep it out of the sun. The make a larger version of this product that would be just right for treating such water so it will not develop slime, etc. over it's storage period. You can also use bleach but the water will taste more like a swimming pool and if you are just doing 1 drum while you decide. When you get around to using it I would still send it through a filter unless you are just watering plants so you can refresh the supply.

I haven't but I would think it would poison the water if there were fish in the tank. Check with your pet shop to see what they suggest......
