CLennerton is on a distinguished road
Default First tank

So I am finally done my first build. I will be putting in a Cuban Tree Frog, which I should be getting sometime this week. Took a lot of planning and patience and a couple tries to get the look I wanted. I got a nice piece of driftwood that arches and splits into 2, to provide a nice shelter. In the pics you cannot see this, but there is a giant rock behind the driftwood with a nice perch for him to sit on. Lots of places for him to climb. I have a Exo Terra waterfall and fogger, and used different sized rocks to make it possible for him to get in and out of the water with no trouble and to make sure it was not too deep for him. I have had it up and running for about 4 days now. I am misting daily, and used plastic wrap around 75% of the screen cover to help with humidity. Humidity sits around 90% and the temp is about 70F. I will be getting a light to go over top to bring up the temp for the frog as well as a light to see at night (using a blue night light).

Here is the pics let me know what you think, they are not the best pics as they were taken with my cell phone.
