aquarium safe non slip mat

[celebrist]

what type of non-slip or rubber mat would be safe to me to put in my sump and/or tank? would like to place one under my return pump and have other possible applications in minas well but I am concerned about chemicals leeching into the water. Thanks in advance for your replies.

I wouldn't use rubber. I set my pumps on filter sponge pieces to minimize vibrations. silicone pads should be safe to prevent slippage, I'd go the extra step and make sure it was food safe though.

yeah, that was my concern as well, I will look for some food safe silicone mats. Thanks.
