Hi Steve, thanks for replying and yes, this is a canister filter, Fluval FX5. That sounds like it might work, and that’s actually what I had to do with her heater since she would go after that as well. I wonder how many holes it would need to have in order to function properly (and where to place them). The other question I would have is how to secure the bottom of the tube so that she couldn’t move it. She keeps dislodging the filter intake tube and I worry that she will push the intake up into the air and damage the pump. She’s quite a trouble maker! I was also thinking of finding some sort of stainless steel screen to cover it, but that might be hard to find. Thanks again for the idea!
