First time builder here for dart frogs (though fairly experienced in building for other reptiles, amphibians, and fresh water aquariums).
I'm wondering how people add in a water portion into their vivarium by making their false bottom floor level drop below the false bottom/water reservoir level without over-saturating their substrate with water?
I am using egg crate lighting panels from the false bottom. If I create 'stream' by making a gap between the egg crates and fill the gap with charcoal/ fluval stratum, would regular flat substrate (not on the stream) be over-saturated with water?
In my head I'm imagining and wanting to design something Justin Grimm's Penninsula video. Everyone has seen it but I'll pos the link. You can see what I mean at 0:17-0:35 seconds
