Its kind of cool mine makes a huge mess all over the tank though he moves a lot of sand everywhere. Not sure this would make much of a difference.

well in that project they used .75" PVC, but i would try 1" or 1.25"
if i do try this i think i might try it out at the shop (elite aquatics) first. once i get permission that is. who knows, maybe it would help to settle in our jawfish when we get them the only down side i see to this is you wouldn't really get a chance to watch the jawfish do what they do best..dig with there mouths!

Thats a pretty good idea i also got a bluespot jawfish from a lfs and built him a little structure with rubble after a day of settling in he found it and customized it to say the least lol the coolest thing i noticed is if hes getting bugged by another fish or at night sometimes he'll close his little cavern with nearby hermit shells or rubble
