Crested Gecko Exo Terra 24" x 18" x 24" vivarium build

2" should be good. You will probably get some roots growing out the top of each pot. I have a ton of visible roots and I love the ancient look it gives

Just dont forget to poke holes through the plastic (if there isnt any) and through the gs/silicone once you are finished. If you can, I would try using small tubing, or even straws to help keep the drainage hole open. Sometimes the foam will just close up again haha.

Getting ready to put my GS BG together. Wondering what the ratio mixture is for the Titebond III to coco fiber and sagrassum moss? By BG will be 100% of the back panel and about 40% of each side panel, all full height. I plan to use the titebond on both the top area with the coco fiber mix and then the bottom and waterfall with titebond/sand mix.

How much titebond do you think I'll need for this build?

Also do I buy the brick coco fiber and then expand it and then dry it for a couple days in the sun? or should I just buy the bagges stuff?

Also, still up in the air on weather I should seperate the FB/ground area from the water aquarium area or just go with a FB and have more water? I'll be running an Eheim 2232 ecco or 2234 and plumbing the canister with valves to run both the waterfall and the aquarium circulation/filtering.

Thoughts and insight?

Since I already sent you a long winded PM about the same titebond questions, I'll just post this quick video I made about my background. It answers most of your questions, with a few scrambled words of insight to any titebond virgins.

Super, thanks Grimm. Yep got your PM and I do appreciate that! Will continue to review your build #2 and video before I take the plunge! Thanks a bunch! Have you done the titebond III mixed with sand yet? Wondering how it turns out in the waterfall and water areas?
