I appreciate it guys!
I mentioned earlier that I found a coke crate that I hoped would work for the reptile room. I tried several set ups and the crate just won't photo well. I could start cutting it up to create more and bigger POV's. I was telling my wife about my woes as she was walking out the door. she said why not build it in a fish tank. hmmm genius idea! thank goodness for lady logic
we have plenty not in use. I used to catch and keep a lot of critters and would buy every tank I found at thrift stores.
this is just my proof of concept.i think i'll do a white and green grimy wash over the inner walls .the top swamp feature will get fully sculpted and hopefully some sort of resin type water feature. I want to be able to look up and see the swamp above. the right left corner needs arranging, I might need to cull some of the critters out to display better.
originally I planned on all the enclosures to have substrate like the black sand in my coral and king snake tanks. I might omit it to allow better lighting. the leds I have are super bright. I think a softer yellow light works better.i had to drop the monitor cage, it just didn't fit in, I guess he can roam free with the tortoises
let me know if you have any ideas to improve my lay out!
