I'm currently keeping a brown bullhead catfish on a 40b as a grow out and was wondering, what's a cheap, easy, cave I could make him? I'm trying out bare-bottom for the first time. Thought I'd throw that in there lol.

You could get one of those terra cotta flowerpots and hold it in place with nice sized rocks since there is no gravel to push it down into.

large diameter pvc pipe, if you want to pretty it up, smear silicone all over it and roll it in some dry gravel to coat it
 
Hollow log attached to a piece of slate or tile would work......or if you can find one that sinks
 
Bamboo would be good too

Nice ideas guys,especially the PVC rolled in gravel.
 
get eggcrate and shape it to how you want it then use spray fome on top and coat it with cement mixed with your substraight,rocks,driftwood and fake plants.its like the same way you would make a 3Dbackground. It takes time to make it but looks awesome and makes you look like a pro I think! post pics when you finish :)
