    Lego hide?

    Hello everybody! I was wondering if anyone has ever tried a Lego hidebox/decor in the BP tank or if it is not safe in anyway. I was thinking you could clean them then cover what you have made in grout. Any ideas?

    Re: Lego hide?

    Sounds like a lot of work and expense for a bp hide. Plus, you would have to seal that grout and I would be concerned with chemical fumes once the hide gets warmed up.

    Just my 2 cents.

    I think that it would be way more work than necessary. I buy these hides from reptile basics, they cost less than $10 are easy to clean and are super durable

    It does sound like a lot of work, but hey, if you're a LEGO nut or something and you WANT to make a LEGO hide, I think you could make it work. You would definitely need to seal it somehow so urine and feces don't get in the cracks between the legos, but I think if you could come up with an effective way of doing it, sounds cool to me...
