Whites Tree Frog Vivarium Build Thread

Uhhh yeah, wound up working on this throughout the night and then some..

I took some pictures but they didn't come out that well, but here they are.

I needed a way to access my filter and heater... I luckily had a flat stone from an old aquarium wood decoration, I used this to make a trap door of sorts.. should work for what I need.


So this is what the tank looks like right now, I haven't added substrate yet. I figure I will mess with that when I have a fresh mind.


The background is still a work in progress. I woefully underestimated how much foam you get in those cans, it's not a lot. This background took 4 cans. I was able to adhere it to egg crate, so now the background is completely removable. I also ran out of silicone but I don't think it will be all that noticeable once the plants and moss are in. I was able to do 4 'holes' to rest my planters in, I will take more pictures of the background tomorrow because it's really not near done yet. I can say the absolute worst part is spreading the silicone, what a mess!



I have a box fan blowing on the background right now. I assume it will need at least one day to cure. I don't think I will be putting this all together until Monday night at the earliest, I used a lot of foam.

Hopefully it will come together nicely!
