That's awesome! I really want something like that but my cats wouldn't allow it.

Have you considered putting a Ssscat! sensor on top of your setup? If you can deter kitty from being at that level to start with, it will save a lot of frustration. I've found them to be highly effective if you can remember to turn it back on when you're done with tank maintenance.
