Help making a second level?

JessieMarie · 07-02-2008, 10:49 PM

I'm going to be getting a 27 gal (yay!) and I want to put a second level in, maybe two. Definitly one for their shells, maybe one with a hut on it. Any tips of what to use/how to stick it up there?

may i recommend that you get a 29 gal instead
as for the 2nd level use sucion cup big ones
or just but at target or walmart a all plastic shower caddy( with out metal hooks)

The only place I can buy plain tanks only sells 25, 27, 33. They comepletely skip 29

Okay, thanks for the tips. Thats pretty much what I was thinking.

aah, don't worry. I have a 10 gallon (because that's all I can fit on my dresser!), so you'll be fine.

You're fine with a 27. I think our friend was just trying to tell you to go as big as possible so you don't have to upgrade again

You can find plastic shower caddies at Wal Mart with the bathroom hardwares (plumming), not with the towels and decor. Try to get the ones that have big plastic suction cups. When you put it in the tank, make sure to wipe away any sand grains from the glass or it won't stick well.
You can find corner caddies and I found an oval shaped one that fit nicely across the back of my smaller 10 gallon.
