No not all frogs need UVB. Maybe toads do? I don't have any UVB bulbs going on any of my 18 frogs..... Yes I have a frog addiction..... So what!

Hi Paul, my name is natalija and i have an addiction too.... So what lol and i think last i counted we had over 60 animals in total... I think, that was a number we stopped counting and went to get some wine.....

no i was asking in general. I have uvb for all breeding geckos, some other animals, but i wanna know. Cos when you see mbd in supplemented animal kept under led that is another thing to look at.

Correct. If you are using LEDs, you would need to use supplemental uv lighting if the inhabitant requires it. Sorry, I got a little side tracked on that answer lol

yeah yeah, lol you wanted to confuse me, but actually im glad you went all out i have better understanding now, just gimme time and im gonna be a pro just like you probably not..... Oh well

[deranged chipmunk]

A pro? Me? Please, I just have a bunch of useless knowledge rattling around in my empty head lol

[Lija]

I found your useless knowledge very..... Informative


all right guys, i need a crush course on smth else.... Apparently i destroyed the saw i was using lol because it was my hubby's precious wood saw..... Oh well, women and instruments.... Anyhow, im pretty sure i was using it more then he was lol

PS. Im so glad he is not around this forum lol

ok so while waiting for my new tank that i really hope to pick up today, im slowly ripping nasutas tank apart...... And got bit yesterday as their thanks, was kinda funny in comparison to say pixie....
so that big thing that is supposed to be a flow control in my filter i think works, but not to the point i need. I have no idea what has happened. It was perfect before, during water test and later for like 5-6 months, but now the water is finding its own way and out of the place it used to and into the substrate.... The fact that happened after i cleaned the pipes and that i sucked at making substrate before was not exactly helping. I think my isos and springs are dead in that tank... Or i may just not see them, frogs though are very happy. Anyhow im gonna play around with that thing when i return. Will help me with wait for drying/curing whatever is happening in a new one

so to help contain water in its way to the pond- everything around is covered with silicone. If i spray black foam +silicone/moss/ coco fiber in places water gets away - will it work or i should forget about it and start from scratch?

Obviously i will need to change the substrate too, for the same i do for my new one.

Ok, let's start with A) PVC shouldn't have ruined a saw. The metal is so much harder than PVC. It's actually easier on a saw than cutting something like oak, so now worries there.
Now B) pics, pics, pics!! Help me, help you. Post some pics so we can see exactly what you want to do.

And just for future reference, unless you are using sealed channels, similar to a gutter, controlling water is never going to happen. It's going to go where it wants, there ain't nuttin you can do about it lol

[Lija]

Yeah.... I think it was just the fact itself that i used his saw.... Lol.....

Yes, will do pcs too, i guess what i meant to ask was if foam will adhere to silicone.

[deranged chipmunk]

Foam will indeed adhere to silly cone.

I believe today ...is the day ?????

We're waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaating to see the new tank

[Lija]

it is not how i wanted, but my patience was gone. Lol like long ago gone lol

Advice needed since he didnt do holes for cables.

I got this


Im thinking to cut the wire on a top, glue this thing in, after cables are through cut big piece of black foam to cover the hole so the frogs wont get out.

Yes? Or not? Or smth else?


Got that too, no idea why.... It just looked at me funny


And got that too to mix in my soil. If no go, lemme me know, i will have whete to use it

[deranged chipmunk]

That plug will work just fine. Your idea will work

The plant looked at you funny? Man, I am not even going there lol

That soil is my go to. Combine that with some bark, and some cocofiber and other stuffs and your plants will thrive. The key is mixing in enough large items to promote drainage and prevent compaction. That's why ABG mix is the standard. Peat moss is excellent for drainage. It's also the only part of ABG mix that offers any nutrients. That soil mix have peat moss and other humus substances in it to offer excellent, natural, organic fertilizers.

.???? Whaaaaattttt? Would never guess that day will come! Bill is saying this to me.... Awwwwwwwweeeeeeee!

About that soil we gonna have a separate discussion, mister..... I was going all out looking for tree fern and coco husk and hell knows what all over the place.... And obviously there was a easier solution.... And you all knew..... Rrrrrrrrrrrrrr


yeah yeah... I know i didnt ask lol

but now i have enough soil do to 2 tanks!yeahhhhhh!

[deranged chipmunk]

As far as the soil. I normally don't recommend soil to people because it's against the norm. A lot of people just will toss that soil in and then will regret it down the road because it compacts and bogs out. It must be mixed with other items to make it usable in a Viv.

Thanks Bill! Now the real question is how i will survive without doing anything to the tank for the whole week while im away.

[DigitalPunk]
