A large natural looking cave... I have a 13" Pleco and he's long out grown his cave... I have him in a 55 gallon aquarium with a very natural looking setup... I've looked at all the LFS around and on Ebay... I can't seem to find one to suit my needs... Maybe one that looks like a rock, a cave, a log, etc. Help me out please... People have said they they tend to not hide anymore when they're this big, but he still tries to hide and gets stuck... And the Oscar and him still get in their little skirmishes sometimes...
 
You will have to make one, or find just the right piece of wood/rock. Not an easy task, nor something I would personally bother with. Just put lots of driftwood, and he will be happy.
 
Or find some natural looking slate put them together a little "randomly" but so it makes a cave.
 
take a large piece and cut it just below the half way mark so that it looks like a 3/4 moon. apply aquarium silicone in multiple coats and apply your substrate.keep in mind this must cure for 2 days! soak this in regular tap water overnight or at least 8 hours and rinse and bury in your tank. :woot:
