Here is my 90g tank that I had made from scratch. This is my first and only vivarium right now. I think I did a good job on making it. Please give me feedback on what you think.

are you going to be putting any animals in it? If so what kind? I think it could use some vines or a piece of drift wood to fill in the open front area. Other than that it looks good. I'm about to start attempting my first one, although its not going to be quite so big, only 40g.

I was thinking of red eye tree frogs. Its hard to find vines in the city I live in, so when I go on my trip I will go look for some branches n such.

check out for any local reptile shows. I was very surprised to see 4 for sale at our local one that happens once every month. I orderd a really neat vine from one of the site sponsors, it should be delivered tomorrow.

If you are going to get tree frogs then you DEFINATLY need wood and vines for them to climb on!

Looks good. have you thought of adding some mosses to add some texture/cover to some areas? I agree with Bagel RETFs realy like alot of verticle space to climb around

I know that they like a lot of vertical space. I just need to find some good vines when I go shopping. As for local shows, we dont really have any

pity

Well done. some moss, few vines, a bit of misting and few months and this will be a jungle

I just dont know where to get moss from this time of year. I know that the local greenhouse will get sphangnum (sp?) sometime in the late spring as there is still 4 feet of snow in the forest.
