Lets see those frog racks or Closets

Very cool Mike. I just bought a five foot wide rack for my frog closet. As soon as I get it all set up Ill post a picture. I went from a four foot to a five foot to give more room for larger tanks and better spacing.

Cheri, where did you get a 5ft rack? I can only find 4footers.

It is not the typical wire rack. It is an industrial shelving unit. I got a used unit for $85 from a shelving supply company. It comes with five shelves. The extra foot gives me just a little more flexability on tank size. This will allow me to get ten good size tanks on the one rack. I'm trying to keep all tanks on one rack in the frog closet.

Gotcha. A 5' rack would be nice though. I could fit two 29gal on one shelf. And 5 ten verts on a shelf. a guy can dream lol

Here are some updated pics of my frog room. As you can see it is not finished yet. New window is on order and I need to finishing framing in the door. The custom viv in the pick will go back to the other rack. I needed to move it to the rack with the misting king system, since we are going away in August.

Man, I need a frog room. Maybe just moving all my wife's clothing and shoe boxes from the bedroom and into the hallway will fly.

I'm guessing not, but its worth a shot.

I have been contemplating walling off a portion of the garage and making it a frog / hydroponics room. Only problem would be heating/cooling and ventilation.

Potentially there's a lot of work and money if you want to convert a garage to a frog-safe room. My main worry would be dealing any drafts, and also insulating the building. Is your garage insulated already?
