Raffs new home is a 90 gallon aquarium with a cascade 1500 series canister filter.. UVB/UVA light with a brand new heater and custom made dock... I added a under water bubble river and plants to kinda hide the hoses and stuff and try and make it pretty..[/b]

Out of PVC pipe like many others here.. But instead of building platform inside tank we made it so it hooks on the outside of the tank

it is about 6 feet of PVC used and 10 PVC elbows plus a piece of plexie glass I already had and turtle carpet covering all the plexie and edges
whole project cost about $9.00

In that first pic it looks as though he can pull him-self over the top and escape! Is this true? If not, how are you preventing him from doing so?

[Mama_Mouse]
