Guess no one wants to comment my tanks???! Haha!

I like the 3rd one! The others look like they could use a little hideout of some sort but it's hard to tell

[djfergu]

okay cool, Pacblu......thanks for the comment!

what kind of lights are you using? Some of the plants look stressed..

[cschub13]

Do you keep darts in those?

[highvoltagerob]

I also like the look of the 3rd one. The brom pic looks pretty nice too!

What is the red glow that I see? What light temps are you using? (its probably just be the pics, but it looks like the glow in a warmer for fried chicken, lol)

Haha....yeah, the glow was a red heat lamp, but it is not part of that tank. kinda just a "picture fluke" if you will. My temps for that particular tank fluxuate, but are mainly in the 80 degree- 82 degree range. humidity is always between 50%-60% which is perfect for Bastis. To answer the question the 10 gallon terrestrial tanks I built just for fun, or possibly for holding tanks (if applicable)....and the 12x12x18 I have my R. Imitator "intermedius"
....and the 18x18x18 houses my O. Pumilio "Salt Creek" Bastis.

The 18 cube is my favorite too, so its not surprising that people like that the best. I definately go for the "natural" look and environment in all of my tanks and do my research on locales and species kept in them before I do them, just in case everyone couldn't tell haha.

oh...and JKNIGHT- I use mostly 5.0 UVB on all of my tanks. It gives me a good heat to ventilation reading (due to hood size and small heat output) and works perfectly on my tanks when set up properly. I know people say that the UVB does no good for the frogs, but it works well for plants....and I also feel that all animals benefit from UVB and it helps with digestion and thier balance of calcium that stays in thier system.
