The Build

[Meefloaf]

hey guys, been pestering you for awhile now, got almost everything i need to get started, so on sunday i did. It's an exo terra 60x45x60

I'm still between milk frogs and whites tree frogs, 90%milk frogs, depending on their availability when i get to that stage, i've had a look around and their requirments from an enclosure are fairly similar. I've changed my enclosure idea, i've been advised that whites dont care too much for tree fern/coco backgrounds and will spend most of their time on glass leaves or branches and try to avoid the tree fern/coco, so i have bought myself five pieces of cork bark to cover most of the back and sides (get discount so only cost me £5 for each large section and they are massive). I'll be using expanding foam on top of the silicone, placing my bark, sumba veined vines and plant pots into the foam, for the foam thats in the gaps i will be rockoflex'n and then plastidip'n the foam before adding tree fern to make it look nice. Side note, the plant pots will have aquarium tubing siliconed onto the base to help them drain into the drainage layer, this is where the question comes in, should i run a 6mm aquarium tube up the back of the tank so i can siphon the water from the drainage layer, or do i stick a bit of 1/2 inch pond flexi hose in the corner at the front with a cap on it and turkey baster the water out should it rise too much. here's a few pics of the cork bark and my siliconed tank, missed the top corners, going to finish them when the next tube arrives, you may also notice one side is less siliconed, thats the side i'll be putting my heat matt on







and here's an example of the 2 bits of wood i've bought to be used for the guys to climb, its gorgeous, cant find ghostwood over here tho really wanted that too
