ANOTHER background - rainforest

This is the last of five backgrounds I've been making. Only worked on it for two days and am pretty happy how it turned out so far. Used a lot of unused bark, driftwood etc lying around the house.

I think I'm going to put the waterbowl below the driftwood hanging from the middle and make thdt a waterfall.

One thing I'm unsure of is how to seal in the moss. It is glued on and sturdy, but the bits that stick out I'd like to seal in so the lizard can not rip them off or eat them. Any ideas?

Also, unsure about the vines. Should I remove them, or at least part of them?

An adult merauke blue tongue. I probably can just leave it as is, but I am worried because sphagnum moss does cause impaction in smaller animals like leopard geckos. Although that usually happens when the moss is used as substrate or a moist hide, and the gecko sheds and eats the skin along with a bunch of moss.

Having it on the wall like that is probably safe, but I just don't feel to comfortable that if she wants she can just chew it off or scratch it off etc. Plus it would make the background last longer.

Dang dude... Would you be willing to make one for a dart frog display?

I had to come back and look again because thats just so impressiv, I would comfortably pay 100$ for that and still feel like I ripped you off, you got some real talent

Your stuff is ridiculously good. I know there's tons of people that would pay good money if you started making them to sell

Wow, thanks for all the compliments. I didn't really think much of this last one, my centerpiece was gonna be the dinosaur one.

I'm still trying to figure out how to "seal" the moss in so the lizard can't eat it. I tried dabbing the moss with waterbased polyurethane but not sure if that'll cut it.

I don't know much about dart frogs. Are you saying you are looking to get one? Or are you currently making one?

I'd like one made that had jungle vines and hides that could support high humidity and moss to grow on it.
