Future Dendrobates Vivarium

That's a lot of big plants for such a small tank. I'm interested in seeing how you plant it.

Maybe the coconut was carried by an African swallow. A European swallow couldn't carry it. But an African swallow, well, that just might. (Gratuitous Monty python reference)

Agree with Bill, those Bromelias will overtake the tank eventually. You could place in now as fillers and thin them out as they grow. Maybe add couple moss/fern like ground covers in there too .

Lol, you need to know these things when your king I have two broms that i plan to use and the pups will be mounted, if they do happen to grow too large later on, i can always move them into another tank. I like the idea of the ferns Carlos, Ill eventually get those

Ive finished the Viv! I can definitely see that the broms will eventually get larger. I used the polka dot plant, broms, and the
china doll. I don't always use all the plants i buy. Right now i only have a screen lid with saran wrap covering, ill get a glass
sheet later for the lid.

Looks good!

Did you sand down the edges of the door on the coco hut? If not than you should do that. It will prevent the very chirp cocoanut shell from hurting your future frogs.

When the "Polka Dot" plants grow up to the top of the tank just cut them back (just above the leaves you want to stay apart of the main plant. The part you cut off can be replanted and it will easily turn into its own plant. In no time at all you can carpet your tank in it

I really do like it. You did a good job maximizing the space of the 20g tank!
