Did I Miss Anything?

Your viv is absolutely beautiful. I want very much to try orchids someday. My latest acquistion is in a very spare tank as I have been warned that they become entangled in organic matter. I too day dream of vivs.

ARRRggggggg.....silly me done it again - forgot to check at the beginning if the new viv would leak.......took ages making my bark background and sticking lots of mushrooms, moss and orchids - got a bit carried away. Left the viv for over a week to 'set' then filled it up with 1 inch water.......drip drip drip a day before my pygmy chameleons arrived.....sigh.
Had to compromise with my whites - husband found out that males can be very loud ... so with all my other frogs he could bare no more croaks lol.....oh well....Chameleons are cute too!
Note to self - must check my next viv if it leaks BEFORE I start decorating

Didn't I mention something about checking for leaks before doing anything else?

[Bearnandos]

Yeah you did on my last Viv.......kinda got too excited and forgot again lol.

And that is why I don't intend to buy another exoterra. My one and only exoterra started leaking after about 2 months of use. Useless. Buyer beware.
