    Default New Frog rack

    Decided to bring all my frogs into one area
    Still not finished but all in good time

    It will have a large 1500mm x600mm tank up top and 4 700mm x400mm tanks below

    All tanks have:
    -Automatic daylight lighting (not hard to do, the reptile room as a separate circuit with a hardwired in timer for day time)
    -Automatic night lighting (blue LEDS)
    -Automatic Misting system (Mistking nozzles, but the rest is Do It Yourself supplied NZ as shipping was just to much to get it halfway around the world)
    -Automatic overflow
    -Naturally planted


    The night lighting is a lot darker than it came up in the photo


    Have only have 2 700mm tanks half setup at the moment, still need to do the false bottoms, planting and substrate


    Please let me know what you think

    I agree! So professional. Looks like something that could be displayed in a zoo. AMAZING!

    the vines are made of pvc pipe and different sizes of rope. all covered in black silicone and a peat moss sand mix.


    The false bottom is perspex with lots of holes drilled in it, then coconut fiber and finality a peat moss/dirt mix. used perspex because don't no where to get egg crate in new zealand and i think it looks less noticeable.

    the misting system is mistking nozzles. with a 120pis pump connected to a automatic filling water tank. i used a 10mm main water pipe that splits off to 6mm pipes to the nozzles.

    Night lights are just Blue LED's on a timer.

    Happy to answer any questions
