    Default Fergie's new enclosure

    Just thought I'd post a few pics of Fergie's new enclosure. A local petstore had a killer sale on the 24 x 18 x 12 exo-terra enclosures, only 50 bucks! I couldn't pass it up, but at the same time that size is too big for my little guy. So a quick trip to lowes, a tube of silicone, and a sheet of plexiglass fixed that. I split the tank right down the middle and essentially each side is the same size as a 10 gallon tank. Now I have a home for Fergie and an empty side to put a second frog in as soon as I find one that screams 'take me home!'

    (sorry if they're kind of blurry, I didn't notice my phone was in low light mode until the very end)

    Great setup and good use of space.

    Nice! But you need to make a divider not see through and cover sides
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    The divider is covered with a background on both sides. Fergies open side is covered with plants and a UTH. Once I get a second frog I'll cover that open side.

    Oh that's right, sorry didn't see it in the pic! Did you also silicone it in? That is my issue with divided ranks in general, but front opening ones are making it difficult to waterproof both sides.

    The divider is siliconed in. The backgrounds covering each side are static cling. I ran tape along the top to help keep them in place and the bottom edge is buried down in the substrate.
