Well I've been reading tons of great stuff on this siteand decided to join! Special thanks to Bill "derangedchipmunk"! Inspiring stuff!

So, I have a green tree frog and I’m lazy (really just too busy with all kindsof other stuff) and wanted to build a vivarium for less maintenance. So my little guy Kelsio (American Green Tree Frog named by my, atthe time, three year old boy) is staying in a little cheap 10 gallon tank witheco earth and a cool little petco tree and water bowl. I put in a Do It Yourself fogger already there.
But now after an Achilles tear recovery, I’m on to the realbuild! So here are my plans/thoughts and wanted to see if someone can helpanswer a few questions and maybe put me on the right path.

What I have:
24x18x24 exo terra terrarium with background
Silicone, GS, gloves etc
Leca balls (hydroton), landscape fabric, NEHERP mix (wclay added), NZ sphagnum moss, leafs (from magnolia tree outside)
LEDs (homemade from a led site, just for cool colors), Twoexo terra lamps (one 60w normal light one exo black night light)
Eco earth, small pieces of cork bark, some cooldriftwood, net pots (2” and 3”), exo vines
Dehumidifier (modified to fit my tubing) for fogger ofcourse J
What I’ve donethus far:
Water tested my waterfall. I’m using a piece of driftwood that fitsperfect on the right side. Plan onhaving a shallow water spot in front right side. Drilled a hole ¾ the way up and tube runs inthe backside. Plan on siliconing thetube and applying eco earth later. Waterruns right where I want, for now at least.
Soaked all cork bark and drift wood in bleach water (nottoo much bleach) for a day. Soaked itfresh water one day. Rinsed. Its drying as I type. Plan on putting it in BBQ pit at 250-300 degto dry it out after it dries more.
I installed the three LED strip directly across the top ofexo background and fed wire out the back side wire routing conduit thingy. To prevent the lights shining at me, im goingto install a little sheet metal strip bent over and reflecting down. Then silicon and eco the top side to hide it.
Concerns/questions:
I hope I didn’t screw up with the bleach. Hoping that the pit will get it all out. Please tell me im okay!
My driftwood piece that fits perfect is VERY soft andalmost rotty. I thought about sprayingit with urethane or krylon fusion clear to make it so it doesn’t rot more ormold or whatever other bad things can come. But I really like it and I also have a HUGE hard peice that is awesome,in case it doesn’t work out. Think thatokay. Oh, i planned on boiling too sincei read something about tannins, etc. Itwill be submersed a little bit.

The plans (incase your still reading):
The fogger will be in cabinet under tank. The tube willjust go into top (hole cut in screen) run through a hole perfectly placed byGod in the driftwood, and it will fog from out of the branched out bottom ofthe wood water fall, right on top the water. I will coat and eco the tube to look like vine, and then add my exoterra vines to the mix there too.
The background: Iplan on using the one with tank. Then securingthe net pots, cork bark to it and then great stuff here and there. After that, silicone the whole thing and putthe eco earth all over. After its alldone on my table, i will place it in tank and silicone the back at a few smallspots so it stays there. I thought ofthis for a few reasons: #1. Its seemseasier to work this way. #2 if i screwup and dont like it, i toss it and do it like everyone else on the back glasswith foam etc. #3 my pump wire runs rightback there easily hidden.
The floor: Usualstuff with material mentioned above. Except,i plan on getting eggcrate to make a deep side on the left. It will be blocked off completely. So nothing gets in. Nehrp mix on top and crate with mesh aroundsides. Going to have a hatch to put fishin. Reason for this is i read tree frogsdont like deep water and can drown. So theopen side will be about 1.5 in and the deep side about 4-5 in maybe. (Dang...i should have ran an led downthere...I have one left though!) done!

That prettymuch it for now...but here are some questions that have been lingering aroundmy head (for future stuff):
Doodle bugs. Ihave tons of these outside. Do thesecount as the isopods ive been reading about??
Will fish live in water that is tap treated with thatblue stuff?
Is there a cool little way i can arrange to get water outfor cleans? Without buying over $50 worth of stuff.
To mist or to auto mist (my laziness kicking in). The concerns i have are water overflow orwater loss. If i run a rain or misttubing using the tank water, will the water level in my swallow pond get toolow? And can plants even take that bluetap water? Then if i get a 5 gallonbucket under tank in cabinet. Will thewater get too high? Im thinking, justspray it by hand every once in a while.
If you made this far..THANKS FOR READING and PLEASE replywhen you can with any suggestions or tips! Or OMG dont do that’s! I’ll post pics and updates soon!
