Hello from Minnesota!

I am here with great interested in starting my first vivarium, I've been reading on the site here, tons of good information here..

Initially I was going to transform my 75g fish tank into a 75g paludarium as a "first" project. After reading and researching I think I'm going to actually start out with either an empty 29g or an empty 10g, both of which I have sitting around here. I am leaning towards the 29g standing upright on end.. but not sure.

I am totally open to suggestions and certainly look forward to meeting folks here in this community =)

Welcome to the site. I mostly lurk these days, but I do chime in occasionally (when I can provide good info) - so you probably won't see me too much.

But, there's tons of good info and knowledgeable people on here - they seem to always come up with an answer.

Good to have you,

Welcome! Glad we finally go everything working. Be sure to read through all the stickies, especially the one here in Introductions and the tips and tricks one in (I think) Terra-Construction.

Hehe, did you break something? Or, is there a waiting period for new users now?

I'm apparently not up to date on the latest forum news (because I'm a noob and only read threads directly applicable to me : / )

welcome to the site and sorry about the delay.

Hehe nah the delay proved to be worth it.. yknow they say "Good things come to those who wait" I really did get to read alot around the forum and kind of get to know who's who and whatnot so it wasn't a bad thing at all =)

As for the "wait" for some reason my email and the activation email don't like each other haha we're not sure if it's that the server here is blocking emails to mail.com or if somehow my email is eating them cuz they don't show up in he spam box, my trash, or my inbox =\ I am having the same problem over at Geckosunlimited.com So hopefully that one gets resolved soon as well.

Anyway, I'm happy to be here and can't wait to get started... on whatever it is I'm gonna do lol I am not even sure what kind of animals I want, I am a total newb!
