where can i get this fluid?

@yulianaz Do a google search for ferro fluid. There are several places that sell neodymium magnets and ferro fluid for experimentation purposes. I bought this stuff from a company called ferrotec.

How come it doesn't make spikes?

@nin0nn - It doesn't make spikes because it stays contained in the fluid. If you could see it from the side, you'd see that it is actually forming ribbons that are the depth of the fluid. We tried it with deeper fluid, but that's when the spikes begin to form.

That's awesome! What clear liquid do you have covering the magnets? Also, can the ferrofluid stay in it indefinitely?

@schneemonkey - the fluid is 70 % alcohol. It starts to break apart after a short time and tends to stick to the dish in certain spots sometimes. Mind you, this is a very small amount of ferrofluid in a ceramic saucer.
