Here is the Natural Vivarium I build for my crested gecko Azure.
The plants are slightly different now and have more cover. The walls aere made from Styrofoam and painted with acrylic colors.

The black thing on the roof is a garden sprinkler system that is connected to a pump in order to create a rainfall system that goes of every morning and evening.

Air circulation is provided by 4 PC fans.

Hope you guys enjoy.

Hi guys,

First of all thanks for all the comments.

@ formica: yes those are LEDs on top. but I think they are still to bright for the gecko. So I am trying to organise a descent nightlight in the near future for observations

@ DragonsEye: The pics actually show the Viv open. you can see tracks at the bottom lip of the tank. 3 glass sheets fit in snuggly in there. Once the middle one is in the 2 outer ones do not budge. So there is no actual framework except what you see there.

@ smy 749: no it is not upside down :P there is actually an entire cupboard at the bottom of the tank.

I will post new pics as soon as I get a chance. Internet at work is HEAVILY blocked and at home very unpredictable (the problem with a single internet provider)


To be honest non of the current plants are in there at the moment. the bottom half is not fully covered. Will upload more pics when I get a descent chance :)
