That 5 Gal tank looks really neat. It looks like the font and sides are one piece of glass (rounded front corners). It looks like the back is another piece and the only vertical silicone joints are in the back.

Do you know who the manufacturer of that tank is?

You could make one. There's an ATBA thread stickied at the top of the habitat indoor forum with pictures and ideas.

Or get a piece of cork bark and wedge it between the glass. Cork bark works really well, though it's getting harder to find. In the US it's sometimes available in the reptile section of the petstores. It's also used to mount orchids so it's sometimes also available in gardening type stores. Not sure about Albania, but if you can find cork bark it's cheap and easy.

Check gardening centers and local reptile groups, I'm sure you can find something locally.
