Build varied shallow fish cover from one prepared mix
Create dense nursery refuge without sourcing and cutting every profile yourself. Fine strands, wider limbs and a mix of rigid and flexible reclaimed PVC give fry and forage fish different openings, shade and growing surface. Build connected artificial fish cover in freshwater ponds, lakes and reservoirs.
What is in the pack?
- 65 pounds of cleaned, cut and prepared reclaimed PVC
- More than 500 square feet of surface area
- Pieces about 12–36 inches tall and 1/4–2.5 inches wide
- Rigid and flexible profiles
- Material for 25+ units
- Colors and profiles vary with reclaimed supply
Do I need bases or cement?
Yes. This is loose DIY material, not completed habitat. Divide it among buckets, blocks or other stable bases and set it securely in wet cement. Mix fine and wider pieces in every unit, vary direction and spacing, and let the bases cure before placement.
Is there enough variety for a bigger project?
Tony Haskel described the box as a great Saturday project and reported fish around his finished cover. Leon Jasper reported making a large amount of shallow cover before ordering more and deeper sizes.
For taller transition cover, compare the Mid Depth DIY Kit. Need containers? See fish habitat base containers.
