    I will be waiting for that day, too...I'm excited for it but I know I have to be patient since it's probably going to be a long time. I know how I'm going to make the money to get my plants...nooo idea how I'm going to make the money to get my frogs...and the misting system I want...lol

    Excellent job on the background and excellent job taking a deep breath and recovering from a simple mistake


    Folius.net has some fans for Vivariums to circulate the air. I think you can get 2 fans for $24 with shipping included or something close to that price. You will need to seek advice on how to cover the fans to keep the frogs from getting hurt, but the fans he offers are great!
    I have always liked Pothos so I'm surprised that I don't love it in the tank. Maybe it's just too big for my liking...I don't know!

    I checked out folius.net and couldn't find their fans. I checked all their categories and searched "fan" and nothing came up...?

    I'm actually happy with the fact that I've only spent a litter over $200 on this tank so far. Considering the fact that if I were to buy ABG for this tank it would cost $170 shipped, I did pretty good, I think...

    ive enjoyed following this build. its coming together so quick and its looking great. I have pothos taking over my HOUSE, but i think this is not the pothos you want. there "ok" but not when its hiding your driftwood. id start some small cuttings in some pots you can decide how and where you want them or just thin out what you got. i think youll change stuff around how you like it and itll look very vice when its all done.

    Adri,
    You made a super enclosure
    You have made a super choice on the frog species also! They will NEVER hide.

    As you continue your build, and if you have made a final decision on the terribilis, they will want some open space right on the substrate floor.
    They love to hang- out.

    You might want to look into bean beetle cultures ( when they are adults - they love these as an occasional treat). There easy to culture. A great occasional food supplement. They are big eaters ! 8 is a lot though ?

    Your "build instructor" has taught you to layer the bottom of your enclosure ( gravel > batting > screening ) they way I make all of mine as well. Once you get more water in there , and the batting is touching the water, you can give that entire front portion of the substrate a good press. Eventually the bating and screening will disappear.

    It looks great !
