So, I have too many tanks in my possession, two of which are 20L's. I feel bad just having them in one, because I can't make the substrate quite deep enough, and can't give them super high things to climb on, or they start walking around on the ceiling and getting stuck!
What do you think of putting another 20 on top of there, upside down, basically getting a double tank? I'd probably have some sort of door cut into it so I could get any crabs out before I took it off, if that makes any sense.
So, I'd love your thoughts!

Re: Stacking aquariums?
A 20 gal tank would be awkward, but it has been done with 10 gal tanks. Also having a hole cut in the side and connecting tanks that way too. Check out what beetlebug did:
