I made my basking shelf out of pvc pipe and egg crate. Having trouble with liner. I tried artifical turf but when put in water the backing disintegrated. I can't find cork liner that doesn't have mold inhibitors and glue backing. I saw that someone here used that rubberized non slip shelf liner as a temporary thing. I wondered if it would work, considering the basking temp. I don't think it is made of real rubber. If not, any suggestions would be helpful. I have a basking shelf and a shallow underwater resting platform. She is not use to deep water. Thanks.

A piece of slate or ceramic tile from the hardware store?
