Anyone know how to keep them on the bottom? Can I use epoxy to hold it down like I do my plastic plants?
People call me Donnie. I've got one Tiger O in a 55USG.

If you're talking about the ones that consists of a long rubber pipe then they normally come with little weights that you spread along to keep them down.

If you haven't got those, you could always weigh them down with something, I don't know a small rock with some fishing line tied onto it? Alternatively, lots of people bury them under the substrate. Not that I actually use one now, but that's just the way I always preferred to set them up.
