I second the drylok, Bill recommended it for me, and it works great and looks awesome

Actually along the waterfall I planned to have rocks silicon ed in place since the coco fiber would erode. Rocks and Gravel are far stronger and give a natural look.

BTW all I have to get at this point is the lighting. I just have to notch some PVC and I can start siliconing things in place before foaming the background

Josh's Frogs has Azureus for $25 dollars each and they are 2 months out of the water. I have paid for 4 and will scheduled delivery very soon. Things in my house are hopping as we pull for getting this project finished and quarantine set up.

ran out of silicone while applying coco fiber have to wait for hubby to pick more up on the way home from work. The white Silicone does not look bed because of the cocfiber and the rocks and gravel on the waterfall really look good too. Once the rest of the foam is covered I will be ordering the plants for it. Lucky for me my little frogs will be living in my fairy garden terrarium as a grow out tank for a while after they are done with QT. they are just so tiny and need to grow to a size Mila can't bully before we put everyone in the big viv and there will be time for the plants to grow in and the springtails and isopods will be able to take hold. All is coming together.

Ok so things are kind of following Murphy at the moment. One of the doors got smashed to bits. Replacement ordered and we still keep working. Hopefully this does not take too long to get here and we could use some tips on how to put the new door in place...

So, 6 tubes of silicone 3 cans of great stuff and half a bag of coco fiber later... The main construction is finished the replacement door is due to arrive tomorrow. The plants have been ordered from Josh's and the little hoppers are still doing fine in quarantine. I managed to get instructions on how to put the new door in from the company that makes the Exo-Terra. I expect the plant here by friday and the silicone to be cured by then and the whole thing ready for landscaping. I will also be making a few changed to my fairy garden terrarium so it will be an ok grow out tank. It was originally designed with that in mind I just need to raise up the light a little and add a hut and some leaves and replace the plants I am moving to the main viv with ones in the order from Josh's. I only need the babies to live there till the viv is grown in and they are big enough to house with Mila. I would post pictures of the babies and the viv but I can't seem to get them to upload.

The Vivarium is upright, the door replaced, the waterfall tested and the plants are sitting in the fairy garden wrapped in papaer towels till my husband gets home and we can landscape. The little Frogs are doing ok and it's all coming together. In a few weeks they will move to the fairy garden and all will be good.the plants all seem to have healthy growth and should fair well in the Places I plan to put them.
