40B Vertical Conversion Build Journal

They're lovely . I'm good. Thanks so much! I have quite a few begonias. If you'd like any, let me know.

Any other plants you're looking for?

I am always looking for more plants lol. I only have 3 more coming for this tank... maybe 4. Forgot ifI canceled one of them or not.

I would like some low grown cover type of plants to put in the tank and let it go nuts, but couldn't find anything, everything I wanted at stoves leaves was sold out :/ With how dark the back ground is in this tank I am looking for color (hence the begonias I picked out). The lower area is also going to be mostly shade due to the large land section in the middle of the tank. If you have any clippings you want to part with I can find a home for them. Either in this tank, Mantella's tank, or the Red. My Vent tank is packed and is in need of Maintenance at the moment so I won't be adding to it.

Wow this is a really cool build. I wanted to convert the 40 gallon custom built tank I have but at 48" long it was a bit more work than I'm capable of lol. I'm starting to wonder if the false bottom I have will be high enough since I'm going to have a water section. Good luck with the frogs

Done, finally lol. All the plants arrived today. They were cleaned and split (because they were freaking huge plants from Steve's Leaves) and then planted.



Here is the final tank layout. Planted and all. Part 5 video should be done in a day or 2 and will be posted as well. Thanks for following along in this process. It is always fun!

One of the best I've seen so far, I don't think I'm going to cancel the 40L build anymore
