    What did you use for the background and where can you buy it? It looks like you used eco earth ground coco husk on it but howd you make it stick to the background? Amazing looking tank btw, you did a good job with it!

    It looks wonderful. You might want to add more plastic plants to the sides towards the front corners. Cresties live in those hanging plants.

    BTW, good luck cleaning it. :rolleyes:

    Indeed, and from what i have read you can use other foam as well for shaping and making objects in the vivarium. My next project is a 55gal tank with about 6" of water a few small small fish, flowing water and live plants. My goal is an almost 100% self-sustaining build that is both pleasing to the eyes and highly functional.
