Things You'll Need
- Small water pump
- Rocks of various shape and size
- Small container
- Silicone caulk
Instructions
Fill a small container with water and place the pump into it. Test the pump to get an idea of how fast the water flows. If the pump has an adjustable rate, you can use this feature to attain a nice steady stream of water.
Arrange rocks around the pump. Build up a base of rocks that will conceal the pump and also keep your pet from getting at it. Use silicone caulk to secure the rocks in place, but do so in a way that will allow the pump to still be removed and serviced if necessary.
Arrange more rocks to create the path of the waterfall. You may choose to have a slowly descending bed of rocks for a slow water trickle or a steep drop off that will create a more dramatic fall. Again, use caulk to secure the rocks in position once you're happy with the set up.
Transfer the pump and assembled waterfall to the water area of your terrarium once the caulk has dried. Plug in the pump and power it on.
