From an old fish tank? Bearing in mind I don't have any fancy-pants tools or anything!

So that it's removable, but won't easily fall off? I'm setting up an old glass fish tank ready for a couple of gerbils. It's a very deep tank, which I'll half fill with substrate for them to make tunnels in anyway, but I want to add some wooden platforms to make things more interesting. I was...
