Somebody (although I don't remember who it was, it was someone in Canada) once posted that plastic water bowls for pets that have cut outs on the sides to pick them up are sold at Ikea for only a dollar or so and make great water bowl/hide combos. I looked at them and bought some small ones and some large ones. I have been using the small ones for babies for a good while now and fairly recently have put 2 of the large ones in use. You really can't go wrong for that price. They are black.
