What size are those pipes? What orientation in the tank are they (holes facing the front of tank or holes facing the side of the tank).

Thanks.

The diameter is 2 inches...

When i was taking the photos...it happened to be facing out of the tank...

But most of the time it is random..i just placed it there..sometimes the large clowns will push it away if it is obstructing them or when they want to dig..

I have 6 yoyos. They are around 5 inches nose to tail..with one gravid female...they are very cheap here...Malaysia..could get many more..but i prefer clowns.costs RM2 for 1... :D

Converstion rate : 1 USD ~ RM 3.48..

wow thats a great price. around here, smaller under 2" clowns go for 10$ now. I was getting them for 5.99 before but recently I see them anywhere from 10-20$ for under 2" clowns. The prices keep going up.

Unfortunately..no...couldnt find a big enough pipe for them..im very reluctant to get the pvc pipes because of the rough and sharp edges..dangerous for them as they can dart around REAL fast when they are scared.
