So I set out to get Artemis a water fountain he can splash in to his heart's content and well, so it couldn't be tipped over by him either or the top popped off. They were stealing the charcoal filter before. We chained it to the cage side and secured it with some carabiners. The pressure holds it in place pretty well, the only direction they can move it it seems is backwards and upwards. We placed a notch in the front so that the chain would not slide. That was the only real modification. I also suggest taking the regulator off after switching it to max since they just kept stealing it anyway. 
The cookie sheet catches most of the drips. A little while ago, after being out with it all day and not spilling a drop we came in to a pool of water and an empty fountain. Not sure what happened since it was still chained up perfectly. I'm wondering if someone managed to somehow leverage themselves up to tip it from underneath. We'll fix the problem sooner or later, I think we just need a chain in one more place to keep them from being able to push it back or up from below and we'll be all set. Enjoy the pics and videos below and meanwhile we'll keep improving upon things.
