Some new builds

[MikeM670]

I'm open to suggestions for them. I won't break up the group of Dendrobates Lamasi 'Orange'. They may end up in the 40 vertical but still looking for options to replace them in the mossy and the two 10 verticals.

They look very nice mike, nice work and keep it up love to see all these viv builds from varies people.

my question is i got a 80 gallon tank custom made up to house australian giant tree frogs also known as White lipped tree frogs which they grow up to 15 cm in length so i need this type of tank, anyways back to the question i am thinking of making the same type of background as what you have there with the plants on the back by using foam and moss for the cover layer plus pot holders, but im wondering once you water the tank either spray bottle or system depending on what you have, how do you drain the plants to provent the water sitting in the pot with the plant getting water logged???

help would be appreciated

Thankyou

I don't have any drainage holes for the plants. It is probably not a bad idea but I only mist the upper areas to keep the peat moss and clay moist. I really don't water the plants that much as they ABG mix stays pretty damp. If I was to add drainage to the plant pots I think adding some flexible tubing incorporated into the foam or clay or punching a hole into the pot and foam would do the trick.

yep just what i thought my substrate on this other tank here keeps moist and pretty much the same as what you have just 1 less ingredient and 1 different product.

think im having to get some plants that like humidity and little water as i am going to install a misting system in it, so might think of putting drainage in the pots.

which will lead to the drainage layer at the bottom which my tank has a hole in it so water doesnt build up in it saving my changing it every 2 weeks lol.

mike, super cool! A few weeks ago I did a couple 10g verts to go side by side. I was trying to hide the plumbing haha. Again, nice builds. I really like the faux vines too, I'm going to be experimenting on making roots and vines for an upcoming build.
