Pebble Cave I Made From Scratch

[babybell911]

Ok so with a bag of cornish pebbles from homebase (£7) and some silicone aquarium I made me a cave. I think it looks pretty good, but would love your comments. You could see the silicone joining the rocks together so I stuck 3mm gravel into the silicone to cover it. Pretty sturdy and quite natural looking. I also siliconed in a couple of plants too.

Not so bad I thought. Got loads of silicone and pebbles left to so I could make more if i needed. Also some of my fish came out to pose so here's a couple.

Very nice, but I think it would look miles better if you siliconed gravel all over it!

gravel all over?? it'll look like it had been pebble dashed!!!

I think it's pretty cool, looks a little un natural now but give it a month or so to get a little bit of algae on it and it'll blend in laods better.
