Waterfalls?

[SaIiLdVaEnR]

I am planning on making my own waterfall in a 2'x1.5'x4' chameleon tank that will be flowing down one side of the tank, over cork bark. Can anyone recommend some supplies or methods of set up that I could use? Thanks very much guys in advance.

They are really hard to make. Just make sure you use a small pump and not too get to much water going down the corkbark or else it splashes everywhere. Other than that just make sure to get some good pieces and a good saw to cut things exactly how you like it. Silicone the joints well and Ive used fake spanish moss to add some detail and to cover the ugly silicone look.

ive built one before there realy cool and well i wouldnt plan on the exact dimensions until your done i garente it proably wont be the exact same what i used was a large block of styrofoam and them sculfpted it with a dremil drill and a knife and used a fish tank water pump to circulate the water you will need a resevoir to put this in though im going to start working on a new one soon out of just rock with the paths for the water chizled into it

Thank you very much, the both of you. I will be making a stand for the enclosure with doors with the resevoir underneath.

This sounds great. As this was originally done awhile ago i was wondering if you were done or had any pics?

I made one once for my frilled dragons using a laguna pond pump. (they shoot about 6 feet in the air) and some of the laguna hose (black coiled stuff) I ran a piece of the hose up the back of the enclosure then put the hose through a hole in the bark where they basked.. The water shot out and trickled down the bark over some rocks into a big water basin. Looked real nice, only problem is they kept splashing into the water and emptying the tub, so it had to be refilled often.. If it runs too dry the pump will stop working..
