    Default New in town!

    Hey,


    As you may have guessed I am new to this forum. So far I have seen many great set ups and lots of caring pet owners on here. I suppose I should say a few things about myself so here goes nothing. I like building Vivariums as I'm sure alot of you do and watching frogs very is entertaining, I could do it for hours, especially when they feed. I love posting pictures so I attached some to this introduction of mine. This is a tank I designed just for fun, I don't know if I have a style maybe this set-up will show something I don't see. Any criticism or advice is appreciated because maybe there is something I am not aware of. Anyways I look forward to those of you I have the chance to meet on here, cheers.

    What a nice post. Welcome to frog forum!
    Your tank looks really nice.
    I like the colorful stone substrate. You have the knack !

    We always have to be careful, however, with sphagnum moss, cocoa husk ( vs cocoa fiber) ,
    and uncovered pebbles as these can cause intestinal obstruction if swallowed by a frog.

    It's always pleasing to me to see stacked slate too ! Looks very nice.

    Welcome to the forum. It's very nice to meet you. What types of frogs are you interested in? Arboreal, aquatic or terrestrial? The gravel/ pebble bottom is a concern unless you decide to keep smaller dart frogs, in which case I'd be prepared to put a few more plants in there for climbing/ hiding and some leaf litter on the ground. I love the stacked slate as well and the use of the broken flower pot.

    Thanks for the welcomes everybody I'd just like to say I no longer have this tank set up. Yes Slate is a better choice then pebbles but I never had any frogs in this tank, it was just for decor. I have kept my share of frogs over the but years mostly Aquatic ones though and I would have to say that they are my favorite! FBT's Forever!
