Really nice cabinet. You do nice work.

Hi there Marty, Greetings from Iceland, was browsing the net and stubbled on your fantastic site. It´s been a dream of mine to build something like that for a long long time. It´s great to see a perfectinist at work, you really thought of everything, far too many people in the reptile hobby are not ethusiastic enough about their tanks in my opinion. Well done! If you are interested in custom making one for selling then I would be very interested in talking to you! Best regards, Iceman

how much did that cost you to build?

Looks excellent...wish I had one. Question though. I know you said about the drainage system in the back and i was just wondering how you did that. Is it just plumbing running from a set height in each viv or drained from the bottom. And how did you do such a great job at hiding it! Love the woodwork and design. Keeps things simple when it comes to maintenance . Hope to see more updates on the progression.

Firts of all, great job!

Saw your article in the Dendrobatide Nederland Magazine.

I do have one question: where did you bought the presure tank? I have been googleing a bit but could not find it.

I am busy with something similar myself, not having to fill the tank all the time that is, but could not find anyhting to make it happen. Untill now that is.


Thanks in advance! And once again, great job!

Hey I'm almost trying to duplicate your set up, I just wanted to know the measurements you used for your acrylic boxes? and what the guides were for the doors to slide up? or if anyone can help me in this area Id love it.

I was also wondering if i could use a acrylic tube were your vent system is to make it a bit easier for myself?

that set up is absolutely amazing.
i'm really impressed.
now i have to go work out how to stack all my vivs so i can get more in.

I know that dart frogs are poisinous but are pumilios poisinious too? Even if they are poisinious can you handle them??

Wow, that is a really great setup. Thank you for posting! I see quite a few things that I can adapt for my Chinese Water Dragon vive. It's still in the early planning stage, but it is going to have to be very large! I also have frogs, a FBT and a newt, and I was hoping to create a rack to hold all of the tanks, and I really like your ventilation idea. I agree that you should design/build these for profit. This is just such a great setup.
