I find going slowly with the resin and/or using one of the tips helps pour gradually without a lot of bubbles. Double curing for the fish is necessary. Hope this helps :)
I think you need to push the pebbles down to make them more compact in the bowl so the air bubbles within them or under them can be pressed out prior to adding resin. Its just a thought dont know if thats the cause of the bubbles.
Hi try popping the resin in a hot water bath. This should make it less thick. As for the bubbles they are occurring because of the sand medium. It will trap heaps of air which is realised when you cure it. I would suggest leaving your piece uncured for a least 1/2 an hour but checking every 10 minutes for bubbles. Then cure it. Vibration also can move bubbles to the top gentle tapping the item on a hard surface might work.
Oh no! Well at least the bubbles don't look too bad with the fish, since fish tanks usually have some bubbles. It's weird that they're moving though! It could be an issue with your UV light? Sometimes when I make these they stay a bit sticky no matter how much I shine the UV light on them. You should try setting them outside (or on your windowsill) for a few hours on a sunny day. That usually solves the issue for me.
When you use clear resin in art, you use a small blow torch (like a cooking one you use on crème brûlée) to pop all the bubbles before you cure it. But unfortunately you wouldn’t be able to use it on these as you would melt all the plastic. It’s so frustrating. Also it’s best to do a little bit at a time and then cure it (like the instructions say) and that will stop the trapped moving resin from happening. Another thing if you get the gold fish again, I would suggest using a different colour gravel if you have it? A cool colour like blue, green or purple. This might help the hold fish to stand out. Sorry for such a long message 😂❤
clown fish are quite teritorial so maybe thats why theres only one ;) and I think the pebbles trap some air and they come out after or while its curing maybe mix the pebbles with some of the resin then leave it for about 10 mins the bubbles should come to the surface so you can pop them then add the fish and plant cure it and put the other resin on in a few layers waiting for a few mins for bubbles to rise to the top and pop them :) I do resin quite a lot and usually leave it for 10-15 mins for the bubbles to surface before curing it
Your best bet is to let them sit for about an hour in a dark place to let any bubbles that are going to form to rise to the surface so they can be popped. If you can poke holes in to the air bubbles and direct the resin in they will disappear also they sell UV lights and flashlights just thinking about maybe you're not getting enough UV for some reason. Some windows have a film that blocks out some of the UV light.
You have probably figured this out by now, but I'm watching your videos from the beginning, so I don't know.. 😅The asterisks are to let you know how far to fill the resin (water). You do step 1, add gravel, step 2, add coral and fish, step 3 add resin, but only to the line where 3* is.. Step 4 is to cure in the sun/with uv light. Step 5 add the rest of the resin to where the 5* shows, step 6.. cure again. I hope that made sense. They basically just want you to notice that you don't just add all the resin and cure, I think. I love these.. I haven't opened any candles or plants yet. Hoping I do.
Maybe keep doing a tiny bit of resin and curing in between. I think some of the comments from fans were accurate and helpful. We haven’t gotten a ball yet. They don’t sell them here and we ordered on. Said it would take over a month to come. Ugh. Back to minis. Fish tanks have bubbles naturally with air flow for fish. So that doesn’t bother me as long as there weren’t too many. Candles I am not sure. I think I’ll watch several of you creators more before making ours anyway. Looking forward to them. Understand your frustration. Good video.
Hi cc! I changed my handle and name so you might not recognize me Im reminding you cause I dont want to be forgotten. Good job on the fishtank And drink! ❤
I think you can try waiting a bit for the bubbles to rise up then pop them with a needle/toothpick before curing the resin
Thank you corallite :)

Thank you LorieD :) appreciate you

I will do that next time :) thank you 😊

Thank you for the incredibly good ideas :) will have to give them a try !!!! thank you!

That is a great idea I used the mini verse un light on the kitchen but an outdoor one sure sounds fun

Please don’t apologize:) I am grateful for your advise.

I will certainly try that next time :) thank you!!!!
You have a cute introduction. Good job.
Thank you appreciate you!
Try a cure it in 1/3 sections. I find that work really well and also reduces the bubbles
will certainly give it a try thank you!

Thank you Christina that is a great idea :) i did grab 1 new lifestyle i will give it a try :)
Those who work with resin suggest using a blow dryer to eliminate bubbles before curing
Thank you I will try that next :)
What are you using to cure it? I use a light for your nails and it works really well.
I used the mini verse oven (uv light) i also have a nail uv light maybe that one would work better right? :)

Thank you Shari!!!!!!!!! Appreciate the info very helpful :)
@@ccstoysandcreations My pleasure. Always happy to help, if I can.
They still look cute though. ❤
Thank you!!!!

Thank you! Yes I agree I think a little at a time has helped. I hope you get yours sooner than expected:)

Good job on the fishtank And drink! ❤
You can try following the instructions and it might work
Thank you :)
I think the bubbles in the clown fish one looks like they’re supposed to be there seeing as fish tanks have bubbles anyway.
They do give it some character right :) thank you for stopping bye!!
I believe the *3 an *5 is for you add some resin then set for 3 minutes add the rest an set for 5
Ah makes sense :) i did grab 1 lifestyle capsule the other day so i will give it a try :)
Do the water in thin layers to avoid bubbles
:) thank you will give it a use
Hey friends 🤗 new mini verse make it lifestyle unboxing mini love ❤️
Thank you 🤗

The bubbles are from curing too fast. Let them sit to degas. Your UV light might be too strong. Use the sun or a different UV light.
I hope i can get some more of the lifestyle to retry with your suggestions :)
🎉
TY :) :)

You’re pouring the resin too fast poor slower, and lower and in stages
Will do thank you :)
