    Thank you Chris. For anyone interested in doing this. To add to what Chris said about adding water and keeping the sediment down, you can pre-rinse your gravel. This will help wash off any excess chalk on the gravel. I pour my gravel in a pasta strainer and run the water over it.

    This is really pretty! I just recently thought about wanting to get frogs, and I’m a long way away from doing this kind of thing, but it’s definitely and inspiration! This is weird to ask, but have you thought about doing like a livestream/long recording of the tank? It’d be really nice to have something like that playing in the background while being able to watch the frogs and aquatic animals being in their environment!

But I’ve not had any animals skinned scaled feathers or hairy destroy a enclosure I’ve made I build it for the pets I have or will have . And if you get it right you reap rewards like babies or interaction that’s rarely seen ! Too me that’s a successful enclosure that your pet feels at home in . Great job Chris!

    Hey Chris. This is SO inspiring. Thank you so much for taking the time to record this epic process! I wanted to ask you - how do you keep the orchids growing in these conditions long term? I read that some orchids need a 'rest period' where it's much cooler. Do you remove them from the tank for a while to achieve this? Once again - you're the best!

I am soon going to set up a 12x12x12 inch exo terra ( for who know what. Lol ) and a 18x18x24 for a pair of dart frogs and a pair of mourning geckos.

    I've never seen wiring and tubing hidden in plain sight with silicone and moss/sand/coir... which is strange, given that it looks pretty good and makes maintenance on the pump so much easier. Would love to see an update on this tank in the future.

    It is much easier if you make a 'tube' for it before foaming, where water can drain in. That way you don't need to hide the pump/tube/cables baceuse they are under the background foam and you can pull all of the stuff out if zou need to change or service the pump.
