Well i went to PetLand to pick up some small crickets. I was looking at some air-valves to make some DIY drippers. I saw that ZooMed makes something called a Betta Hammock, i guess for your Betta to relax on. Its pretty much a leaf with a sturdyy metal backbone and a suction cup.
My problem was , i would place my drip tube to drip on a leaf that would then drip into a catch-pan. I guess from my Chams movements he would either move the dripline or move the leaf out of position and i'd often come home to a soaked tank from the dripper dripping stright to the floor.
Well i had an idea with the Betta Hammock and it worked like a charm!!
Video of it in acion.. Would work best with a glass enclosure. But i'm working on getting some 4" x 4" squares of plastic or plexi-glass and put holes in the corners and ziptie it to my screened cages, so i have a surface to place the suctioncup to.
