    Securing vines inside enclosure?

    Wondering how you guys go about securing vines inside of your tanks... Right now im using this rigged up suction cup thing and not only is it not going to hold my ball python within the next few months but it looks terrible

    I just use suction cups and wet them a little before sticking them. I've thought about hot-gluing them, but have never tried it.

    I've often wondered about this too, hot glue gun sounds like a good idea, forgetting about the suction cups you could just glue them straight on. Dunno how much weight that would support though.

    At the very least, hot glue would support a heck of a lot more weight than a small suction cup
