Rudereefer, where did you put the straw in the 10 gallon to allow water to drain from the river/creek looking area? How much water do you need to drain from it that way and how much can just overflow and go back down to the false bottom through the dirt and all that? thanks for the help!

I would like to know what type of vinegar was used to soak into the grout. I've made these water falls before for darts and Whites tree frogs, but when I made one for fresh water fish, everything I put in the tank seems to die within a day because my PH levels are too high.
I've had this problem for two months now!
Please help!

I had the same question as AlbinoCricket. Acrylic doesn't seem like it would last with the water flowing. I haven't added faux rocks to my terrarium yet, but my sister has them in hers. She uses plastic rocks. Hopefully this information helps! I know that making the rocks seems like it would take a lot of time.

I read pretty much every page of this. I'm converting an old console TV into a viv for one of my snakes and this was so helpful. The rock wall is the one thing I absolutely knew I wanted to do.
