I know that there are ways to build permanent cave systems, etc. However, I think I like just using a bunch of Lava Rock and Tuffa better. This way you can easily rearrange things. My 75 Gal is about half filled with this type of rock... Looks cool, provides lots of places to hide, and more bacteria surface area.

I made a cave out of three pieces of slate. Cheap and easy.
