Soooo...The first attempt was a complete failure. I didnt do enough research, did understand completely on how to set up things, and it was the FIRST time i had ever tried to do such a thing. I had ZERO confidence and you could definitely tell with that way it came out. As of yesterday, i got busy with my razorblade and got everything out. I have too many empty tanks and not one single viv, and if i dont do anything soon my girlfriend is probably going to put me on aquarium buying restriction :P
Im going to document this one like i documented the last one. I figured it be good for me to look back on with my future builds so i can see any mistakes, or good ideas i may or may have not come up with. Hopefully i have better luck this time. Im sure it wont be fancy like a lot of others i see up here, but lets face it...its my second try.
This will house my first pair of darts. Im not sure exactly what im getting yet but i have had my eye on a certains someones near my area. She also brought some lovely plants to the Richmond frog meet that i got my hands on. So a big Thank you goes out to her and her husband!
Also picked up a nice piece of malaysian wood from the pet store today. Not sure how exactly im going to place it yet but im going to put it up against the back glass and GS foam it in.



bottom piece is a piece my uncle gave me.


a brom and some nematanthus. Cant wait for it to grow more. Orange is my favorite color....and lime green...
I will post pictures as i go along. I am using the same false bottom that i used in my last one, just modifying it a bit.
Im going to silicone the black glass first, add a thin layer of GSF and trim it up, add more silicone so i can add my substrate, and then add the wood. After i add the wood i will GSF it in and trim and cover once again. The reason for me doing the back glass first is because im not sure how hard it will be to reach through the small spots of the wood and press in substrate.
