Exotic Environments Castle Fortress with Gargoyles Aquarium Ornament, 10-Inch by 3-1/2-Inch by 5-1/2-Inch

Smaller Than Expected, But Good Quality.
I gave this product 4 out of 5 stars, because it is smaller than it seems and there's a few key aspects not mentioned in the product description, so read on.
The castle measures just over 5.5 inches in height, just under 8.5 inches in length and 3 inches in width (width measured at the bottom).
From the picture you can't tell, but the main two windows only measure 1/2 an inch in width and .75 in height, so only small fish can fit through. Also, the top of the towers have very SMALL openings, about the size of a dime, so again, very small fish might be able to fit through. The openings do not have sharp edges, so no need to sand them.
The overall construction is actually very good, sturdy and nicely painted. If you plan to mod it somehow, you'll need a precise and strong tool, I would guess some kind of Dremel attachment. It's made of some kind of hardened plastic.

I ended up not using this castle in my aquarium, because it looked too small in it. I have a 50...
Great
Looks great in tank. Was updating o a new look at this was a good addition. The fish love it.
Love it!
After many years of wanting an aquarium, I recently purchased a 20 gallon aquarium. I bought this ornament as my center piece in the tank and I must admit that I love it! My tank is gargoyle themed so it really balances out my tank perfectly! It is not too big or too small.

Cichlid Stones Giant Stone (Mfg #6803)

Nice rock
ok first off if you have LARGE cichlids <oscars> they can't get in this cave when full grown... however it is MUCH bigger than it looks.. . I have a 48" wide 75 Gallon tank and this takes up about 1/3 of the bottom.. it also has a mostly flat top/bottom

so while the adults can't get IN the cave.. they can easily use the top for egg laying and the fry will be able to hide in it..

I am very happy with this overall!! especially for the price!
Great Item
We have a large catfish which loves it. He hides out in this during the daytime when the lights are on. All the Cichlid's love it.
The best we could find online
We have several aquariums with Large cichlids. We buy caves for helping reproductions of cichlids, but normally at the pet shop they are very very expensive (an equivalent to this one in the pet shop could cost about $80cand.) so this one’s really make a good job.

The only but it’s the entrance whole which could be a little bigger.
