I have a few small unlighted fish that were reasonably priced, but they do seem to be getting more expensive lately. I suspect there are fewer producers of these things nowadays.

I did however just buy a big lightled one last week at oceanic arts. I'd still like to try the LED thing with one of my small fish, but the big one they had just looked so good, and when I checked the odds of doing the process myself (slim to none), I decided it was worth the cost. (That ebay price was a lot less than what I paid, but, by god, mine has spikes!) Swanky, the question remains- how do you get the LED into a Glass float? Will a small drill bit work? The staff at Oceanic Arts said they stopped trying to make lighted floats because they shattered 9 out of 10 globes they tried.
