    I don't enter the Photo of the Month competition, but I thought I would try this competition for once. Here is my Golden Poison Frog (Phyllobates terribilis) terrarium in April this year. You can see a single frog in the foreground in the plants to the left.

    I didn't do it all in one go. The false bottom took a couple of days. Cutting and gluing the tree fern panels for the background took a night+a few days of curing. Drilling the lid glass took a while, as did getting all of the mistking setup. Getting the vent right took quite a while too. Substrate and the outer facia of gravel took a few hours too due to the heat cable setup and planting. The terrarium looked pretty bare until the plants grew in. I had been designing/planning this terrarium for a year (!).

    Its tropical moss... I'm told you can get it from your local florist... I got mine locally ,( on the ground by a lake across the street from my house...) but you must take precautions using locally collected moss like this... but from the florist you may be OK or at least should be!!
