New tank

Gravelanche · 02-21-13, 04:45 PM

Just doing a test run of my new tank, see what i can get the humidity up to.

its eco earth substrate if you cant see theres a hide behind the branch, found that palm tree and i kinda like it, and im going to be suspending a climbing vine from the mesh top.

Most likely the starting home for a juvy BRB for a few months until i can build something bigger.

Setting up the other tanks this coming week too, going to be most likely getting the animals in march at the toronto expo

**yes i know, screen top, screen top! i will cover it with something dont worry

o dont worry, i'm going to con my sister (a pro photographer) to take some stills of my new babies after the expo.

Also the humidity hit 70% and i dont even have the proper heater, im thrilled

Round 2 with the new substrate, jungle earth mixed with fir/sphagnum moss for more humidity hugging power, with a warm moist cave in the back corner and a climbing vine secured to the roof. will add a second hide on the left side as a cool hide.

I'd recommend getting a digital temperature gauge.

What are you putting in the tank?

Gravelanche · 03-06-13, 02:00 AM

its for my baby BRB, i will have something larger by the fall, then i might use it for some rough green tree snakes or something

I would put an ATB in it once you move your BRB out.
