    I thought that this water dish would be great for my hachling corn im getting because it could hide under it, but im wondering if it could tip it over

    the dimensions of it are 6" w x 6 1/2" d x 2" h (15.2 x 16.2 x 5.1 cm) or the bigger 8 1/2" w x 8 3/4" d x 2 1/2" h (21.6 x 22.5 x 6.7 cm)

    the best thing is their super cheap at 3 bucks each :D

    Yeah, I would be worried about it tiping over. And if it does, the cold water could crack the tank if you have an UTH. Its a neat idea though, I've seen them around.

    I use those in with my smaller snakes and they work great as both a hide and water bowl. I have never had one tip over either.

    I think the weight of the water would hold it down. That's a cool idea.

    If you're worried get a heavier dish. My snake never tipped his, but it might make you feel more at ease.
