Terracotta query

Post by diverchic »

Hello,

I remember finding instructions on how to cut and break terracotta pots for aquariums somewhere on here but have just been searching ages over the past few days and cannot find it. Can anyone remember the thread and where it is? If not, does anyone have any advice as I've got pots waiting to go in George's tank.

Thank you

Well, I've managed to get the terracotta to (mostly) break where I wanted it to (much to bf's surprise) and am letting it soak overnight before putting it in the tank tomorrow :-)

Thanks again Chubber!

George LOVES his new caves... instead of hiding head-first in the back corner of the tank he is hiding in his cave and looking out at the world! :-D

Going to get some more plants after payday so that it will more heavily planted tank as well.

Also, he's figured out that if he follows the siphon around there are sometimes mts hiding in the gravel that turn up which made him extremely happy during his weekly tank clean and water change LOL

I'll put up some pics once I get more plants
