    Day 3 we moved the tank out of my shop and set it up in its resting place we rinsed the tank several times before letting the water stay in it. and hooked up the canister filter down below the tank. also added a Megalodon sharks teeth me and my son found, and a peice of drift wood we got some moss started on.










    day 4 pictures are in the first post...

    this was are first time giving it a shot. we had a lot of fun doing this and i think we will do it again shortly so what do you guys think look good?

    Welcome to FF! That does not look like a first time vivarium , very nice family project! If including carnivorous plants, you might want to read this and ensure your milk frogs are large enough: http://www.frogforum.net/vivarium-te...a-vivaria.html. Good luck !
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​

    thanks for the sticky! there's some D.capensis, typical & green in the tank as well as some D. Burmannii green and giant reds in The tank. i'm working on getting some N. bellii or N. gracilis for my pitchers. but i guess i should read the sticky before every thing roots haha. thanks again!

    Welcome to the forum. Very nicely done. I second Carlos' suggestion about the carnivorous plants. I am fascinated by carnivorous plants, but I wouldn't in a frog vivarium. That would be a great dart frog vivarium. Add some leaf litter, and let it grow in.

    thanks ed one of the reason we are going with Amazon Milk frogs (tree frogs) is they don't require the leaf litter, i'm not a fan of that stuff. and there plenty big enough not to get stuck in the sundew plants. there's some carnivorous plants in it about 8 including a a bladder wart to kinda control the spring tails. but originally we were debating on just putting a bunch of pitchers in it and passing on the frogs. but it turned out to cool in are opinion it looks like frog heaven to us.
