PVC Turtle Dock

Use PVC pipe to make a basking area in your turtle’s habitat! Cut pieces of PVC pipe to the lengths needed to hang a platform over the edge of your turtle’s tank and assemble the pipes with PVC connectors. Glue an additional piece of PVC pipe along the edge of the tank to widen the edge if needed. Wrap the top edge of the PVC frame with duct tape to prevent slipping. Cut holes near each corner of a cutting board or piece of plastic and use zip ties to attach the board onto the PVC frame. Use aquarium silicone to glue river rocks across the top of the platform and set a couple large rocks next to the platform for your turtles to use as a ramp.
