    New crestie setup :)
    I made a new tub set up for my crestie. I saw a tutorial on another site and decided I liked it. All together it probably cost $6 to make. The 6.5 qt tub and dowels from Home Depot were about $4 and the fake plants (the amount I used for one setup I have plenty more to make more if I needed to) cost about $2-3 at Michaels.

    I just hot glued the plants onto the dowels. The nice men from Home Depot even cut the dowels to the size I wanted in the store :)

    Oooh, nice!

    I suppose you would need something a little deeper for an adult though, right?
    I want to breed cresties, so I'm looking at /everything/ crestie related. XD

    That's only a 6.5 qt tub, so you'd definitely need a larger enclosure to house an adult :)

    Very nice! Whats your plan for the crestie as an adult? i want to get http://www.petco.com/product/115557/...AmpFC_Habitats and set it up for a crestie when i get one.

    and i would hang onto that tub with the dowels like that would work great for young GTP

    I'd like something like that. If I can't find a nice DIY option for an adult I'll probably just get something along those lines :)

    What about the DIY crestie sticky on here? I plan on using that if I get some more.

    Looks like a solid hatchling setup. It's very similar to mine. I'm with you on the DIY adult setups. I've been searching for a long time for the perfect curio cabinet to convert into a tank, one day...
