I thought about purchasing the all screen cages...........I didnt like the setup and after seeing Zerrah's stuff I said to hell with it and went after my own setup.
Now let me tell you guys.........Im a pretty decent rough carpenter and a mediocre finish carpenter. My entire family is in...
I bought the pro mist system for 250...........Im actually impressed. My only complaint so far it the coverage.........initially I thought that I was going to have problems with the mist hitting the lights as I dropped the nozzle in at a 45 degree angle.........but it actually isnt a problem and...
man chameleons must be a lot hardier than everyone thinks............its snowing out and youre just now getting them in? Or are you using some dry humor?
I just got mine from BLUE BEAST...........thanks Tyler. And they didnt seem to be so happy from the overnight shipment.
You can do all kinds of things........I need to take some pictures tonight to show my stuff which isnt really making me completely happy but Im getting closer to my vision.
I used small potted IVY and made a place on the wall for it in my fake rock walls...........
The ficus benjaminus...
Cant really help too much with them..........I did lots of corns and kings........but Ive had some of the rough and some smooth greens..........
What are you looking to find out and Ill ask a friend who does a bit with most everything.
Love the simplicity of your layout.
What did you use for the walls again? Was it the plastic sheeting for standup showers?
I just finished mine.........Not 100% happy with it but Im no finish carpenter and I so busy with the business.......this winter has been warm so the motorcycle stuff...
That dude rocks the house with patience...........Mine isnt nearly that busy.......I left mine a pearl grey and really choppy.........didnt want to crowd the cages........but I really like his setup.
Anyways Ill be playing around with something and if it pans out Ill make a mold of it and be...
I like your door setup..............something Im really unhappy with on my stuff so far.
Next time I build doors I wont use 45 degree cuts for the "picture frame" look and I wont build the frame like I did.
I am actually going to build some molds for fake rock backgrounds..........that...
you need to feed them alot more than potatoes...........
at the minimum use good dog food and fish food flakes.............just grind it all up.
Potatoe flakes.............soy milk powder...........fresh veggies.
Just out of curiosity, if you had a cham feeding from your hand or bowl feeding...........couldnt you just swab a tiny bit of the oil on a cricket and call it a day?
Seems a bit easier to get a cham to take it like that.
I work in the composites industry...........I build carbon fiber parts.
That said..............great stuff will stand up to fiberglass resin, but most foam boards wont.
Epoxy wont melt any of the styrofoams..........and if you dont want to pay for epoxy, you can just paint some exterior...
Im actually almost finished with my four first cham cages..........complete with fake rock for 3 sides. I dont like that crappy look of the tutorial linked above me but Im not entirely happy with this first gen of them so far.......maybe with the plants in them Ill be happier.
Anyways, you...
Ive built all kinds of plywood "aquariums"
with the foam I suggest you use some concrete as the cover for your foam. Its tougher and wont let the turtle tear it up with his nails.
If you look up cichlid-forums.........they have a great tutorial on making fake rock backgrounds..........I...
I think being carefull is the key to anything.
I never said it (fish food) should be a staple........I just said I used it to feed the crickets in a pinch.
Normaly I feed them a combination of dog food (crushed) and breakfast cereal which might get some kind of oatmeal added to it or...
