How to secure branches?

[TylerWortman]

Hey guys I just purchased a big climbing branch for Sydney my jungle carpet python. She's in a 20 high right now and Im setting up her 40 gal breeder while she grows. I am wondering how I can secure the branch so that she wont knock it down when she gets bigger. I was going to place it from the bottom corner to the top corner of the tank. At the top corner I will be placing a big resting area so she can relax a little higher up.

Whats the best way to secure the branch? I was thinking silicone maybe but Im not sure.

What are some things you have done in the past?

Feel free to post any pictures to give me examples.

Thanks,
Tyler
