What to use to seal up a hollow aquarium decoration

jleasure0614 · Aug 29, 2019

I recently bought my beardie a huge basking platform. it's basically a fake piece of Driftwood that was meant for an aquarium decoration. He loves it, but the problem is that it's hollow with some decent size openings in it (again this was for a fish aquarium) so I am finding crickets climbing their way inside and then they live there until they're big enough so they start chirping and I have to dig them out of there.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can seal this up? I was thinking maybe great stuff? Any suggestions are appreciated
Thanks!

You can use spray foam and seal it after if you want.

An easier alternative though would probably be to just feed him his crickets in a separate bin or container. A lot of people do this so they dont have to hunt crickets out of the tank.

Anything to block the holes should work. Depending on how many and where they are located you may get away with using tape. But if you wanted something a bit more permanent you could use some great stuff. I wouldn't fill the whole thing though, I'd be worried it would expand too much inside and split the log open.
