It's nice to hear these ideas. Chipping a corner out of a 3" terra cotta pot isn't as easy as people might lead you to believe. I had to glue pieces back on with silicone. I just partially bury them on their sides now and block part of the entrance with a rock that has either java moss or a small java fern rubber banded to it. Despite this my aggies (only ones to spawn so far) have preferred the 3 large pieces of lava rock with java moss on top that are arranged to have narrow passageways. >I am going get a couple of dwarf cichlids, and I was wondering how >flowerpots is used as caves... - -Doug Brown debrown@kodak.com
