knocked over poop bowl!

Ok I just saw for the first time the ig actually pooping in the water bowl in the new enclosure. I had only pooped him myself on the floor level and seen poop in his water bowl before but almost always right next to it. I thought it was pooping next to it. Now I know why!
The bowl is too light!!!! He WAS pooping only in the bowl but he is heavier now and when he crawls off he drags the bowl and spills some of it off! The bowl gets overturned about 45 degrees then it falls back into the original place.
So I will try ot put in a heavier bowl today. Wonder if he'll be freaked by the change again.

Merlin, I do have a kitty litter tray in there. He is very scared of it. Won't go in it and when I put it in there he freaks. It seems really afraid of swimming in water, even if its warm.
I will get a similar sized bowl that is porcelain but I won't be able to get one that looks similar as the one I have now is plastic and transparent.

Should be ok though, as I changed his foodbowl before as he started eating more and more and he took to it immediately.
