Looks good, could use some leaf litter though.

Just the preliminaries Demonic.. I have a crap load of magnolia leaves and some more plants to add. I wanted to get the tanks in side the house on the racks so I could check out temps and such.
So far the lights on the lower shelf don't seem to be raising the temps like I was afraid of.

I like the look of these. I think the frogs will be very happy there. There's definitely room for a stunner of a centrepiece plant in that second tank.

What kind of lighting are you using?

Actually,there are about 6 empty planters in the two tanks.. Haa..

All joking aside... I'm adding 2 kinds of hoya (the names escape me) and I'm going to try out this begonia I have, layman's name is dinner plate begonia. I'm not sure about a center piece suggestions are welcome. I did have a piece of wood, but as I was putting the straw in a can of Wd 40 I managed to give it a squirt... I'm going to try boiling the wood again and see what happens,, but I'm Leary to add expensive Pumilio and hope all is ok.
Lighting is exo terra hoods with 2 26W 6500 K box store compacts.
