    Default Rebuild on interior terrarium layout

    I have a 12Hx18Wx36L terrarium housing 6 fire bellies. Originally width/depth wise there was and rather still is for that matter, a 2 1/2" high plexi-glass divider. It sections off a pool area that is 15"L, less than half the length of the terrarium.

    However they make a mess of course and splash the water around, and over time the plexi has been getting wobbly. I think it may not be high enough, but I wanted both sections very accessible. Also there is small smooth rocks on the water side, which are lined along the side. I don't know if this has contributed to the weakened of the glass which is held in place online by 100% pure silicone. The dry side once had eco-earth and bark but now is empty because it became so soaked that I worried it would grow air borne toxins that would harm the frogs.

    What I am looking to do, is try a new more stable design. Looking for suggestions on a setup. I don't mind extra work and money in the setup, but I am looking for something that is low maintenance as I work and go to college. Thanks.

    Default Rebuild on interior terrarium layout

    An egg crate false bottom would be the best solution. There should be a tutorial in the vivarium construction sticky.
