👋 Hey everyone! New member here and my first post. I'm currently in the research phase now. I had tree frogs when I was a kid and am looking to get back into it with some Leucs. One choice I'm deciding on is to apply a background to the backside only or to the back and sides. If I did do the...

I constructed my Vivarium with the gaps and cracks great stuff foam a few months ago. Afterwards l covered all the foam with silicone and background substrate. I planted my tank as well, and my soil has invertebrates. My tank has been acclimating for a month now and I've noticed that my...

Hey everyone! I recently came across a terrarium build and saw that it had a coco liner background that looked very cool. I went ahead and purchased some unbranded coco liner from Lowes and noticed that it had a waxy sort of texture to it, is that normal? I couldn't seem to find anything related...

Hi everyone After a time away from this hobby for reasons of life, I have managed to settle down and I come back more eager than ever. My first project, "Green roots", is a 30x30x50cm terrarium for a sexed pair of ranitomeyas. I have used a special terrarium prepared for amphibians from a...

Hi all I'll be honest - this is bugging me. So I got some amazing peacock moss and other plants for a great price, set them up and acclimated them, and then introduced our Ameerega bassleri 'Chrome and Green' trio. It is a 24x18x24 Atasuki. My concern is I have read that leaf litter and...

Hello all, as the title indicates I am new to the forum and to housing/keeping dart frogs. I have done a fair bit of reading in the site so far but still have some unanswered questions and probably a lot more to learn. We have kept reptiles in the past but with more arid dry terrariums, this...

Hi all, I have always been interested in getting a dart frog/vivarium at my place but most importantly I want to make sure that I'm in a good position to make the leap and set one up myself. The main question I have which I haven't been able to find online was this: I would like to at least get...

Hey, It's my first vivarium and I'm planing on keeping 2 or 3 dendrobates auratus in it. All the dirt in my vivarium is currently covered in moss spores and I'm waiting for it to grow. The plants on the ground are placed temporarily because I don't know where to put them. Somehow I don't like...

I'm going to be attempting to build my first vivarium in the next couple of weeks. I have a 12x12x18 exo terra that I will be building an expanding foam background for. I am using leca balls for the false bottom and my own substrate blend for soil. I also have a couple plants I'm going to...

So I’m new to Paludariums, I’ve had fish tanks and a couple small terrariums, so I’m pretty much a beginner. I was planning to get something around an 80 gallon tank (maybe more) and turn it into a reef tank, but have lately become unsure in my abilities to pull that off (not to mention the cost...

Hello to all! I just started my very 1st vivarium build. It's a 20H. Here's some pictures. I made the rock background by inserting plastic canvas to the back foamed wall while still soft and then foamed over it to cover it. Front and top views.
