    Well I foamed everything last night and shaped it today but a few holes opened up when I wash shaping so I had to refoam a few little spots but I will be sealing and covering the back wall tomorrow. I decided to scrap the water feature because I just keep hearing stories of how they don't work very well and I also forgot to run tubing up the back for it when I set the background in hahaha. This is what it looks like so far and I am pretty happ with the way it is turning out myself! What's everyone think?

    It is shaping up nicely. I'm debating scrapping the pond I was going to put in as well but it means I would need more ABG. Oy veigh

    Well I got the whole background sealed and covered today and I made a huge mess in the process! I got silicon all over the glass but I will just use a razor blade and get it all off tomorrow when it is dry. Here are a couple update pics.

    Coming along nicely. Don't forget to poke 2-3 small drain holes through the foam under the planters to keep plants from drowning. I was warned of this by another member.

    Well I finished the whole thing now and I have stayed up till midnight to do it! I still need a glass top and the mistking is not hooked up yet because I need to be able to get up for school in the morning but I think it looks alright for my first Viv? I just cant wait for it to grow in! What's everyone else think?
