Watch out for nature's invaders! Algal blooms choke aquatic habitats, turning peaceful waters into toxic hues. Our lifelike replica is part of @USACEHQ's Invasive Species Trunk. Made durable with @smoothon UreCoat and UVO pigments. Thanks, @ramaterials, for your support!

Plumbing problems? Blame it on these pesky Zebra Mussels! Watch how fast they clog pipes in our visual timeline from 0 to 6 months. Our project for @USACEHQ educates on invasive species. Each mussel crafted with care by @fgcicorp's deep pour resin. #InvasiveSpecies #ResinArt

Our Round Goby fish, crafted through 3D printing and intricate hand painting before being encased in resin, awaits final touches. We chose Deep Pour Epoxy Resin Liquid Glass by @fgcicorp for its suitability with our deep molds, despite its longer setting time.
