Hi guys ang gals,

Or if you have a sump than ideally keep them in there.

Get a male then so perhaps it won't grow to large for you. Heater guards are easy to make with pvc pipe if you can't find any.

 

[sonpogi]

is there any sites or do you know someone who carry heater guards? pvc just drilled tp make a holes?

I used a miter saw and made slits rotating around the pvc pipe. I haven't looked for a heater guard but I imagine the large chain stores carry them.
