Adding (height) planting space to the sides with cork tubes
I’ve been adding more climbing spaces and planting opportunities in my 3 vampire crab setups using cork bark tubes cut and glued to the glass. It’s a good way to add height to the tanks and could be an alternative to spray foam although I do also have a tall tank that uses spray foam at the back and then spray foam pieces that I’ve carved into planters and siliconed on to the glass.
I fill some of gaps between the tubes with live sphagnum moss and the crabs burrow into it allowing for opportunities to spot them when they think they’re hidden.
