    Glad I'm still young! If you did another 40B, why not put a tree frog in, like amazon milk frogs? You could do a screen door to allow ventilation. Just a thought

    I am find of tree frogged out for now. I love our Reds, but wish they were up and awake during the day so we could watch them do their thing without disturbing them. I have fallen in love with Darts and Mantellas.

    Brief update: I had nearly given up on the though of converting this to a vertical tank. I don't want to put tree frogs in it, and I was having a hard time coming up with a creative way to make the vertical space usable by largely terrestrial darts/mantellas. I had started planning this tank out as a horizontal again until this past wednesday.

    I was on a road trip with the family this weekend so naturally I was day dreaming about this tank while watching the highway slide under the hood of my car. When I got an idea for how I will use the vertical space to maximize the tank for Dart or Mantellas. I am not 100% sure how I am going to do it yet, but I am going to go buy some supplies tomorrow and start a rough layout to see how it looks. I will post some Pics once I have something to show, but if I can pull this off It should be cool looking. Stand by for an update in the next day or two.

    Bill,

    For my idea I need some low light plants for the tank, well for at least part of the tank. Any ideas?
