Is there a store online that will create my own ornament for a fish tank?

I got one of my bosses for the Secret Santa and I'm not sure what to get him...but then I know he loves fish and has about 4 tanks in his office...I think it would be awesome if I can give him a personalized ornament for his fish tank...what I was thinking was the actual company's logo...I was wondering if there was an online store that I could send them a picture of the logo and they could turn that into a fish tank ornament...do you think it is possible or does anyone know of any store?

Update:

For anyone reading this...if you could give me ideas of what a good gift would be for a fish lover (without spending too much money)...I just want to get him something different...thanks in advance :)

Update 2:

His fish are freshwater but I don't know what kind exactly (he has four different tanks with many different, beautiful fish...all sizes and shapes)...he also already has beautiful ornaments in his tanks so that is why I was thinking of trying to get one personalized with his company's logo to be different...

as to the size of the tank...I would like to get this for his biggest tank, which I am assuming is 100 gallons or so (I always joked that I could give my 3-year-old a bath in it it's so big LOL) so maybe that could help picture the size of the tank...

I really was hoping there was an online store I could just send them a picture and they could make it into an ornament for the tank...

    Not sure about any on-line place that personalizes aquarium decor, but if you would, could you add what type of fish he has, how big the tanks are, and if they are saltwater or fresh. It would make it easier to tell you what to get him.

    Edit: Ok well this is a very difficult thing being that I can not find a single company that will personalize aquarium decorations. My thought was maybe to try to make one, this would take a lot of creativity on your part. You would have to get a suitable type decoration (one with a flat spot on it to put a company logo), even a rock may work as long as the rock was clean and able to go in his tank. Get the logo printed onto a piece of plastic (you may be able to go to a local sign maker and see if they can do this for you) make sure that it is all non-toxic. Make the plastic like a little plaque then mount it to the rock or ordament you choose, you can attach it with silicone that is made for aquariums (you can find it at the pet store). This would be quite a task if you could pull it off, but if you could you could start your own buissness, I'd send you costomers (since there is no competition)LOL. As far as just sending the logo to a company to do this for you, the only thing I could think of is to call a company that handcrafts it's decorations, tell them your idea and see if they may be able to help you. I'll leave you a link to a good company to check out. If I think of anything else I'll e-mail you, sorry this might not be much help.

    Link to company that personalizes pet stuff and makes aquarium decorations, see if they can do both, I tryed getting to their page from this link and can't do it, you may have to call the number.

    I tried to post another link too but it won't let me for some reason, I sent it to you in the e-mail though.

    I'm sure there are sites to send in requests like that, but they would charge A LOT.

    I would buy him a gift card to a local fish store, maybe one he talks about or you see him buy stuff from. Maybe even a subscription to a fish magazine?

    For what you added, you could get him something like this:

    I don't think there is a store.
