    Fake plants in tubs?

    So I know it's necessary to fill up tanks with plants and such to add security, but is it needed with tubs? I have my 1500g girl (lost 100g in a crap haha) in a 41qt tub, which has about the same floor space as a 20L. I used to have a plant in there, but it was a pain since it needed to be soaked every time she peed to eliminate the smell. Plus, it would stay wet for a while.

    I don't have a pic with the plant, but it went in the empty spot.


    Is that ok?

    And...

    "Hey! Get outta my tub!"

    Your set up looks fine to me. Im not sure if you wanna crown it up any more. Is the tub in a rack?

    Nah, it's over in the corner of my room on a shelf. Not much foot traffic.

    that should be more than enough.
    Just remember, the more stuff in there the more you have to sanitize.

    True.

    After dumping her water bowl over 3 times tonight, I went and got a tipless dog bowl from Target. I don't know why she was acting weird tonight, maybe the thunderstorms.
