If you wana keep prices down, I've heard of people using fray bentos pie tins painted black and put on top of there snorkel. Just remember to cut plenty of holes round the top of the pipe to alow air flow.

I think iceland are doing them for about £1, you get dinner and the top of a snorkel for that, BARGAIN! lol
