I really like the look of that I may do something similar to that in my next build...

I used the natural colored gravel in the walmart pet section not too expensive and looks good in the tank...

I got the orchid from Antone (frogtofall)

I wasn't overly happy with the wood I recieved today. I used it...but not willingly. Tanks alittle crouded as I crammed all the plants minus a ton of cuttings in. I will continue to rearrange it until I am happy.

I LOVE the BG. The way you made some roots on the right side is great.

You always do such a good job. I wish I could start all my tanks and finish them out completely before putting in the animals like that. I have a new project to start today, but it's for a snake, so no live plants.

Hopefully the BG won't disappoint! Your waterfall turned out nicely as well.

Don't doubt yourself next time! lol

How did you cover the BG in this one?

Brown silicone and a finely ground cocofiber...was almost like dirt. Worked pretty good. the water fall did turn out nice in the end. The flow is just a light dribble. I didnt want to stress myself too much about a design on the back because I knew it would be covered in bromiliades by the time I was done planting. Theres 18 water holding bromiliades in there. I wanted to make sure that the frogs I get have plenty of tadpole deposit sites.

What kind of frogs are you getting for this super sweet enclosure?

D3monic · #36 (**permalink**) 05-23-2010, 11:51 AM

Some kind of pumilio..most likely Bastimentos.

I just had my wife look through a guide of all the pumilio morphs and write down what she liked.

Bastimentos
Loma partida/split hill
Escudo
Guabo

hmm looks like its going to be a toss up between basti's and Escudo's

Whats the current going rate for Escudos?

Heres a few random shots from around the frog/media room.

I love the leaf shapes on this brom

This ones been sitting in a box for a few months. Still alittle dried out but red as heck.

The varadero tank.

This brom has a couple tads in it.
