Converted an old dosing chamber system to a three room copapod resort. Thoughts? Going good so far. D8D7B5AD-5127-4BB5-9FA7-7F4E4AFA5321.png FF40C45D-EF2C-4873-B4E4-0088A081D627.png 440F9AB8-F0F2-4B8A-87C0-4E271B01F9F2.png 3EA9F53C-3E1F-4896-A398-71C499DCBDE6.jpeg

I’ve built what I call Pod Condos, by taking that Corrugated Plastic Sign Material, available at Lowe’s, Home Depot and other hardware stores. Cut it into Squares, glued them together to create a stack, and buried them under the gravel and live rock.

Nice. I use the same material. In the pics, the white disks in the outside chambers are exactly that. Great minds think alike.

I think this is a cool and fun experiment. I would put a block of course foam in each one though, personally. Pods seem to like a place to breed and shelter. Substitute for whatever item as mentioned above.
Edit: I see you have something in there. Following to see how this works out. :)

It would be neat to see how different materials perform. The corse foam is a great idea. Maybe some kind of bio ball in the third container.
