Hi,

I am a new stinkpot keeper, and I have a question about hiding furniture.

The turtles seem to be doing well - eating like hogs and looking good.

The turtles frequently use the half flower pots I have in their tank as hides, but sometimes I also find them sort of standing next to/against the filter. I also broke down and bought one of those floating turtle ramps that attaches to the side with suction cups, and twice they've popped it off by wedging themselves in against the wall and the mount.

They seem to want to hide in other positions than the flower pot halves will allow. I'm wondering what people have used as spaces into which their turtles can cram or wedge themselves in vertical positions. I'm trying to think of something that won't allow them to get dangerously stuck and that they can't destroy.

Thanks,
Billy
