Default Keep It Simple

So I built my first vivarium. I tried to keep it simple, but it didn’t really turn out that way. It was gonna be a tricked out 15 gallon quarantine tank for my first frogs (azureus). But now I’m gonna have to make a new tank for quarantine since I got a little carried away with this one. Here are pictures of my first vivarium, cause I know you guys love pictures. Hope this works. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you, Alan

Why does no one care? If it makes a difference I care about it. It looks better then mine. Hope mine looks better soon but oh well, yours looks pretty good, can't wait to see it with the moss covering the dead sphagnum.

I bet you're pretty stoked! I waited soooooooooooo long until I finally got my first frogs (mainly due to the fact that I was out of country for 3 months), but that was actually a good thing looking back now. I had tons of time to do my homework before getting my feet wet.

Good looking quarantine by the way!

Thanks everyone for the feed back and complements . I GOT THEM ! They are great ! I was going to try to get away with using this tank but its to big for these little guys . Im getting a smaller tank so I can make sure they're eating and keep better track of them . They look great Hers some picks . Thank you Jeremy and everyone at chucks house on saturday, You all rock

Alan
