I built the cage background for this cage and then added some really cheap silk greenery to dress it up a bit.







Here is the link to the article that gave me the ideas......

I agree, looks cool!

Although trying to find a little neonate spotty in there might prove complicated....

He's a breeze to find... always under the waterbowl
He comes out and cruises at night and goes back to the same hide everytime.

6 months????

I allowed approx 5 days after prepping the foam before appyling the first layer of grout, 24 hours between grout coats, 7 days to allow the grout to cure prior to applying any polyurethane, 3 days before installing the background in the glass cage, and then another 7 days before putting anything in the cage.

I figured those times allowed more than ample time for any fumes to dissipate and all materials to cure.
