You're approaching this backwards.
I have a translucent plastic water bottle. Over the summer, I found that it became more and
more green.
I assumed I had brushed against a freshly-painted green fence, or perhaps picked up grass stains.
Only when I went to scrub the outside did I discover the lush carpet of grass-green slime
growing inside the bottle.
I'm no fashion-addict, but this clashes horribly with my dark blue Mikado. If only I'd bought the
Radisson model, which is green rather than blue.
However, I'd not rather not repaint the bike. And the Marinoni green is a bit darker than this
algae. I'd hate for people to think I tried for a colour-co-ordinated outfit and missed.
So the OBVIOUS solution is to replace the green slime with dark blue slime.
Any suggestions of the proper variety to buy ?
Is this something routinely sold at aquarium shops ?
Personally, I'm surprised that fine bike shops don't sell a line of plankton in different shades
to match one's bike. On top of the colour-matching potential, plankton is a nutritious low-fat
snack. Baleen whales live on the stuff.
Thanks for your help.
btw Has anyone found a source for jersey's which match dried bloodstains ? Much easier than
trying to WASH the suckers .....
