Ok, finished the clay and started placing some plants...need to buy more vines but to cold to ship them.

Not my best build but from start to finish in 24 hours and only costing me $55 dollars I have nothing to complain about

I like how you say, "Not my best build" like it's nothing, and yet it's better than any vivarium I've ever done. This looks awesome!! Great job!!

What's actually going in there, Chris, and what's the purpose of the big pond?

Well the purpose for the big pond is so I can keep breeding these rare site specific apistogrammas since Im moving to a tiny apartment in DC. Im not sure what will go in here yet so Im just going to let it grow in for a few months first.
