best to put the next cage a couple more feet higher up so little hands can't push it off again. think on the bright side there was no T in it atleast

I had a lot of trouble with tanks sliding until I got some not slip matting from the £ shop. It really does do the trick, you get about 1m long x half a mtr wide, if you can't get any give me a shout and I'll post you a roll on.

Depends on what surface it's standing on. I have a 3ft land hermit crab tank full of sand and that still slipped around until I achored it with that matting.
