Re: Show your vivs! Show your vivs!

Picture number four is just a simple Exo Terra background. It came with the enclosure.

Picture number five I bought as a custom, fully planted viv from Frogs with Altitude. I took those plants out and put them in another enclosure, and replanted that one with the plants in there now. The whole tank was around $150, but I can't remember.

Picture number six is just a cork background. They run about $20.

Picture number seven I made myself. It's done with expanding foam, silicon, particle substrate, and moss.

Re: Show your vivs! Show your vivs!

These are the vivs we set up today for both the snakes - just a few adjustments to go and then we should be good until we find a display case we like that will work for both of them.

Nicely done! I seem to recognize the shape of those leaves on that maroonish plant in the background! I think the package reads "Maple" or something innocent like that? I had a maple tree in my yard as a kid... the leaves didn't look like that!
