I have got a load of silk and plastic plants at the mo mostly in my corn vivs which i have been holding down with blue tac, but it needs to be replaced every time i clean the vivs. I have tried using hard foam but this is to light and the plants fall over. I need something heavy that isnt going to fall over and is permanant. Any ideas! Will need something for when i move Tilly into her new viv.

i wedge mine behind the hides so they stay up, but invariably my royals will wreck the viv come morning..

curtain hooks work, but make sure the hook bit is bent over to the metal so your snake dont catch itself on the hook..

why dont you rather set them into something of get small terracotta pots and wedge your foam in them and then push the plants in then it gives you the look of real potted plants and are heavy enough for them to stand

Thats what i want to try and do diesel, set them in something. Didn`t really want to use plant pots as i want a wild natuaral look. I wanted to make up a mold or something to set them in, that way it is permanant and can be taken out to clean and put back in. Any ideas what i can use to set them in?
