    Default Courior Conversion into a RETF heaven...

    Well folks I have put a lot of money into these projects and I cant stop until I am happy. I wont go on to much but I have had Red eyed tree frogs for little over a year now and their pretty sweet. Since I started out with 4 in a 40 gallon Exo Terra and I got sick of it. I have now upgraded their home and added a few friends. Well as of this moment I have 6 and tomorow when the FedEx man comes I will have 9... Pretty excited.. I have done a lot of work to get to where I am at, I have no problem blowing 100s or even 1000s of dollars on these amazing creatures so thats what I have done.. Please enjoy this new thread and give me your feed back.. I have went overboard on some of it and other things I had to create with a little imagination and a lot of head scratching but in the end I feel that I have done a lot of positive things for the amphibians that I own so be ready for a great look into my frog heaven.....Name:  130128_0015.jpg

    All of the plants that are not in the tank are the extra plants that I had left over.... I told you I went overboard.... I paid no more then 3$ for any of those plants most of them were only 1 dollar at Lowes.... Clearance racks really saved me on that one.... Now the fan I really did not like but I had to keep the air moving so that is what I had to do... The shelf is something I came up with since it was such a tall tank.. It is 77-78 inches tall.... Hard to get plants that tall.. I know I still have some work to do but the main things are done... I did water proof the inside of the tank with Drylok which is great stuff to work with..

    Now I know the background looks crazy which is the point... I always wanted to give this tank my own little touch and I did.. I have not added the background yet because I was unsure of the plant placement but it will come.. That is styrofoam and grout with latex paint and im going to seal it with some wood/masonary sealer I got.. Well if it all works out great but I will always be looking for a way to tweak the tank but for now I am done.. Please post your comments and ideas.. Josh....

    Oh ya Lynn they love it so far.. I have the other 4 in a different tank for a while to make sure their ok. I am pretty happy with the tank so far.... Now the pictures of the plants that are not in the tank are the ones that I have left over hahaha went over board.. The background I created from styrofoam and grout which turned out great. This tank converts to a 129 gallon tank so I have plenty of room for 9 frogs...I have to add a few things but I am not sure what I will need to add. If anyones has any ideas please toss them out their... Josh
