    I tried it before. The most difficult part is to make the ferrofluid rather than magnets. You can use a disc or block magnets to do that.

    There is a company near Bristol that sell used electromagnets for cheap. I got a quote off them years ago when i wanted to manipulate ferro-fluid for some audio visual stuff.
