DIY Cholla

[150EH]

The Cholla in my nano tank is starting to break apart but my shrimp love hiding in it, eating it etc. so rather than go search for more I decided to make my own out of pvc pipe, this is only 1" but I wanted it small for my nano tank and it's plenty big for adult shrimp and I made the holes big enough that fry and juveniles could easily escape if needed, I will paint it brown and try my hand at some faux painting and then cover it with some type of moss, subwassertang, etc.

It looks cool.

That's very nice. I bet you could sell that stuff on Aqua Bid or TNT, especially if it is for a nano tank. I like the cholla wood to hide the air tube that comes up from my sponge filter.

Great idea Tim.

Thanks, I thought this might work in a pinch because the shrimp hide more than they swim so I'm don't want to change their surroundings too much and hopefully they will keep on breeding in my fake Cholla.
