    The caps seem like a good idea, but they might make the supports float which would make them hard to position. Suppose you could get it to work though. Or maybe fill the capped PVC with some sterile water or sand first. Maybe drill a bunch of hole in the PVC to allow flow and detritivors to get in there. This may still result in ditritus accumulation though.

    a good solution may be to split the pvc in half if that makes sense. This way, there is no place for the poo to hide. I'm not sure how difficult this would be as I haven't tried it. I actually do not have my rock lifted. I've never really worried about it. If I had it to do again I would lift my rock though
