From another topic I read t'other day:

You're looking for "potable" paint

yes and here are the specs of it
Two-part epoxy paint for potable water tanks (NSF 61/USDA/ANSI/AWWA and FDA certified and
approved or UK equivlent)

Take those specs to a paint suppliers (Wicks is proberbly the best bet) and ask them for it.

Failing that, whilst reading about, I found out that many folk use an aquarium safe silicon sealant. Cover your orniment or whatever in it, and roll it about in some [dry] substrate to get a well camoflaged and textured effect! Then leave for 48 hours (although it appears that many claim to set in 24, but just to be on the safe side!)
