Very nice. I will be sure to post my progress as soon as i make some. I finished putting the black silicon on the back and side walls.

WHere do you cords come out? I have a 29 im going to convert to a viv (want to get alittle practice before I build the big one) and I cant figure out where the cors are comming out. I need to find a way to do this so FFs cant escape, or the frogs for that matter. The cord on my pump in particularly thick and round. I will also have a whisper 10i filter for the water. im thinking im going to need to get the glass drilled along the back edge so there is and indentation for the cords. I would then block that area off like you did with the corner piece from bottom to top. how do yoy do it?

actually i get my glass cut about 1/2" too small (front to back) that way there is a 1/2' gap along the back of the lid. the cord can come out anywhere along here. mine come out in the same corner as my 'block out', but could be hidden within the foam pretty much anywhere in this set up. i just use packaging tape to cover the gap in the rear. i actually usually tape down all side of the rear piece of glass anyway. they never fit perfect, and FFs can get out of the smallest cracks, so i do it anyway (especially with the glass lids form all-glass or perfecto or where ever).

Thanks. That will work. I probably should have spell checked that last post of mine. even for me its pretty bad!

Do you use any type of air filter?

[Landon]

No I dont use any air filter. I havent heard of people doing that either.

[mindybigred]

I did not think so. Thank you for the information, I really appreciate it.

I just wanted to mention this journal has been extremely helpful to me putting together my own vivarium. Thank you!
