My daughters and I are working on our first poison dart vivarium build. We are setting up a horizontal 29 gallon to keep Cobalts. We are planning on installing a false bottom made of egg crate supported by pvc with a layer of window screen on top of the eggcrate. The substrate will be layers of Hyroton, ABG Mix, sphagnum moss covered with leaf litter. We want to make the background out of Great Stuff (GS) Door & Window. We plan to build a small water feature out of Great Stuff covered in Drylok and will use a Toms Aqua Lifter pump for low flow.
Questions:
1. How high off the bottom of the tank should the false bottom be set?
2. How high should each layer of substrate material be?
3. For the background to have a natural look, what material should the GS be covered in?
4. How should we address heating?
5. Any recommendations for lighting a 29 gal tank?
Thanks.
