I had to laugh when I read this because I go through this every couple of months with Tanveer. He goes through a period where he decides that apparently I don't clean well enough or something so right after I get everything set up again in his tank he kung fu's his bowl and tips it over......sigh. After about 2 days of this he usually stops though LOL. Good luck!!!!

I use Deli Cups (several sizes are available) I hot glue one into place and fill another with water and drop inside the glued one. When time to refill the water you can take the inner cup out and replace with a new one if needed. Also if you need to remove the glued cup you can do so since hot glue removes easily. Just don't place them into a corner or your snake will wedge itself behind the cup and pop it loose. I come off the side of the tub about four or five inches and place it. This offers the ones that like to wrap their water bowls that pleasure without tipping over the water.

Ceramic water bowls and line it with a plastic deli cup!!!

I second the PVC pipe with deli cups. I am looking into that as well. Question for you people out there however, where do you get your deli cups and what size? Websites would be helpful here folks.!

ARS Caging tubs with built in water bowls is what I use, they accept the deli cups

I have half my snakes with ceramic bowls and half with plastic dog bowls. Never fails, the ceramic bowls never get tipped over and every single plastic dog bowl does.

Another bowl I've used was a dog bowl that had non-skid rubber on the bottom and the base was wider than the actual bowl part. One of my females has that bowl and she has not managed to tip it over yet.
