Does anyone know how to add a second floor inside the tank?

[Chocobo]

I want to add an entire second floor inside the tank with an opening for a net or stairs with a railing so hermits can get up. Does anyone know what this would be called or if it exists?

I have used a wire shelf with craft mesh attached. I attach the shelf to the side with command strios. And use a bird ladder for them to climb.

I used light diffusers from Lowe's on the rear wall and to make a second floor.

I zip tied the wheel onto the rear wall so the base was above the wheel. Then cut a narrow ledge as wide as the wheels base and made it extend out for a second level. I secured it all with zip ties.

On the other side of the tank I zip tied netting for the second level.

Really? Lol how does that work? (or are you being sarcastic?)

It hasn't been working very well! They knock over the toilet daily and still prefer to poop in the wheels, water and food dishes!

I saw the toilet at Petco and had to buy it! It's non functioning of course! Just being sarcastic!

That’s a lot of steps *dies*

It takes some time but isn't hard if you have a good set of diagonal cutters to cut the material. It has been holding up very well even the 20 gallon I did back at the beginning of the year has been doing great. No crabs have knocked over a wheel or got stuck behind it, yet.

Did you hot glue the mesh into the hamster wheel? Trying to glean ideas for my remodel.
