How do you make a non-reef safe object reef safe

[fishkeepinginasia]

I'm playing around with ideas for a non-traditional aquascape. I want to put a sword or buddha or something in a reef tank. Hear me out. If I coated it in epoxy to seal it, then did a another layer of epoxy and dredged it in sand, would stuff grow on it?

Besides epoxy, what could seal it up?

Thank you

Clear epoxy is the best way to go. There are some threads on here with similar topics. I'll see if I can search one up for you.

Make sure it's dried first!

Epoxy resin

Is epoxy resin safe in our aquariums? Is there a certain brand or type that is safe? I see a lot of cool resin projects done. It would be interesting to know if we could use this inside of our aquariums safely.

Quickest I could find might help.
