My first viv was an 18x18x24 Exo- Terra, and I think it was a valiant attempt. It had an ambitious water feature, which obviously failed; it leaked and rotted plant after plant.
Here is the original thread: http://www.dendroboard.com/forum/parts-construction/64959-18x18x24-exoterra.html
So, when I moved I decided to revise the drainage of the water feature. It didn't take very long to do just that, and the tank sat froglets for a while. It looked nice and the leak was fixed, but I still wasn't entirely satisfied with it,
Now, here I am. I gutted the tank completely. I found inspiration in Raf's thread, so I thought I'd give something similar a try. It's not as big and impressive, but still proud of my efforts.
I still have some areas to touch up. The wood, foam and acrylic are my awkward attempt at a retaining wall for a shelf I'd like to try to incorporate.
