| Hi,
I have a bunch of questions...
I plan to use a free standing closet (the measurements are about 6 feet high, 4/5 feet deep and 3/4.5 feet wide...in other words huge!) to convert into a White’s Tree frog terrarium.
This is a basic idea of the type of thing I am talking about: www.kitchenplace.com/FEimages/bath/talllinen.jpg
But I plan to cut out "windows" in the front doors and replace the cut wood, with PVC for viewing. And cutting the top and replacing it with screen.
Should I also cut parts of the sides and replace with screen or PVC?
I plan to cover the sides and back with "Great Stuff" and on top of that WeldBond mixed with peat moss. Weldbond is a non-toxic glue. (I found this method being used for a dart frog vivarium ), to create a background with caves, cliffs and hides for my WTF’s. I would also like to create a waterfall probably using the first method on this site: www.amphibiancare.com/frogs/articles/waterfall.html
See here for more info on Weldbond:www.weldbondusa.com
I will be creating a false bottom out of egg crate, I am just not sure the best way to waterproof the bottom??
Any ideas?
And now for lighting and heating? I really need suggestions there.
I will be using live plants of course...Monstera, Crotons, Spider plants, Polka-Dot Plants and so on.
I was thinking if the Weldbond/Peat moss mixture is safe for the background, could you use it to cover rope and make false "vines"?
I have bought some grapewood online. And some Cypress as well.
Any suggestions?
This is my first attempt at building well my own anything!
I can use all the help and advice I can get! :help:
Thanks =)
