    Default New FBT Enclosure - trying my hand at a larger scale paludarium

    Decided to move the FBTs into a larger tank instead of having them spread out between a few tanks.

    Have spent the past two days redoing my 72 gallon bow front for the FBTs. One of the filter out puts is designed to make a slight waterfall effect. The other is releasing into the overflow compartment and being fed into the tank at three points down the overflow compartment casing. The left side is the land area, the right the water.

    Only a few live plants at the moment, will increase here and there.

    What do you think? So far they seem to approve!

    In the pictures, I was using a setting that helps pop color but blurs movement so the water looks blurry as it comes out the "water fall" feature.
    Also, I added a whole tank shot for scale but I didn't realize how bad the condensation showed in pictures until uploading them. The condensation is not as bad in person.

    I changed the rocks around the "water fall" on the left and I like it much better now.

    There is definitely a popular side to the tank. As much as I hate the floating plastic island, they love it.
