*GOLDFISH*
Ok, i added these caves today, i used slate in the garden, smashed it up, chiselled it to round off sharp edges and get a better shape, then i rinsed, scrubbed and boiiled =]
Then i dried and used special aquarium silicone to bond the slate together and left for just under 48 hours (with a rinse at 24 hours) this made some rather interesting caves, makes a lovely addition to the tank and all the fish love em,
Best of all, i made one with a straight through hole so both ends are open then i placed this at the same height as the filter outlet so the current goes straight through this cave, I guessed plecs would love it.. At the exit of the cave i put another piece of slate to divert the water current round the tank to keep a current.
looks great to me,
Here's some pics...
There will be plants added on top and round too,
