Hey guys thanks so much, glad you like it :)

The viv is custom made by a guy I know, but I added the shelf myself. everything else was purchased online apart from the perch. I live near the shoreline and we get some amazing pieces of driftwood washed up from time to time. I soak them in a 15% bleach solution in the bath for 24hrs, give them a proper rinse off then sand them down and then treat with a reptile disinfectant, they come up a real treat.

I have white LEDS for the light but I face them toward the back of the viv, not straight down as some do, I think it gives a slightly better effect and not as harsh.

One of the best (The Reptile Room), that shipment due in is from Prehistoric Pets on your side of the pond.

Cool, they always have some amazing reps in. I was in there again this morning :D

I'll be getting a purple albino girl in a few months (a yearling) hopefully for future breeding with my boy.

Ain't cheap though :o

Guessing by your flag your in Holland (or is it Luxembourg). Might be worth a trip over this summer to the Reptile Rooms Barbecue Day :)

That's awesome that you have a good store close by. I don't have any decent herp stores within a reasonable drive.

Just curious what are the black objects near the vent holes?

Temperature and hygrometer sensors (the bottom two vents are actually sealed up)
