Here's some pics of the 10 gallon converted "practice tank" I've been working on. It will eventually be a grow out/quarantine/green house tank, but right now its serving as a warm up to the 29 gallon converted viv. I figure I'd workout any design issues on a ten gallon before screwing up a bigger one. [emoji6]
As always, comments, criticisms, and suggestions are always welcome!
Even included a built-in deposit for thumbnails....
I like!! I look forward to seeing it when it is done! I wouldn't think it could work as a quarantine tank though since it looks like you would not be able to clean it properly. Is that a GS background? What did you use for the bottom? It is very neat!
Thanks!
I didn't think about the cleaning part of it. So I guess a quarantine is out.
As far as the background goes. Yup, GS foam. The bottom part of the background is all GS foam. I blew up a few balloons in different sizes and foamed them up around the edges.
That is really cool! I love the balloon idea
Looks great abe! That's a perfect thumbnail tank

Getting closer........
Yay! I like! I have been hoping you would post an update soon! Do you have any broms? I think one would look good in place of the plant in the lower left corner. I really like this tank!
I may have some plants I can sell. How much $ ya got? Lol

Update!!
Nothing new to update yet. We found an abandoned kitten crying behind our house, and any money for new plants has been reallocated towards that cute little S.O.B!
No big deal though, the frogs won't be ready for another month or two. In the meantime, I plan on building a stand to house the electronic parts, and fogger. I also need to figure out what to do for a more permanent lighting fixture. The good news is that the plants are holding up well so far, and the humidity and temp. ranges are perfect.
I promise to add updates as I make them, along with what all I did including parts and cost. So far I'm UNDER the price of a new 18x18x24 exo terra, and that's including homemade fogger, lighting, plants, fans etc.
Looking good! for lighting you could use a 9w jungle dawn LED. NeHerp sells them at really good prices.
