I could maybe put some rubber matting on top of egg crate laid across flat pvc pipes with driftwood drilled up on to it. Hmmmm

How about getting some nice sized rocks and stacking them to the water surface and top it off with a large flat rock?

I think you might be on to something krich. I was also thinking taking a large log and screwing it into the side of the tank half above and below the surface. As if it were floating in the water you know?

That sounds good too.It'd be cool if you could saw the log in half lengthwise to give you that flat surface....Another option,depending on how high the water level is,you could place a cinder block or a ten gallon tank upside down in the center of the tub and place some type of platform on top of it.
