I have a quick picture from a quick experimental setup in a 30 X High fish tank. I don't know how long I might have this set up and I don't have any livestock ideas either. I might think about putting some frogs in here. I need to add some leaf litter to get it looking more natural.

This is another option that I can offer. I used a window screen kit to build this fitted aluminum screen to cover the rest of the enclosure top in front of the plastic plate. There is plenty of space here for the Exo Terra hood light fixture. Note how the closure tabs also secure both the screen...

I got another quick picture with the setup and that manzanita feature that I made for somebody else before I shipped it off. It looks kind of cool too with just the bare manzanita in there.

That feature for the 12 X 12 X 18 sold already, but I hope to have one or two more to match that enclosure size on the way pretty soon. I also have a larger manzy stump here that I can use to make one for an 18 X 18 Exo. Cheers!

I got a few update pictures for the planting in my 12 X 12 X 18 setup with the drop-in feature and other stuff. The plants are growing in nicely.

I got a few picture updates today! Here is detail of the planting up at the top of the manzanita.

I have finished a couple more of the custom 18 X 18 features, but I still have this one for 12 X 12 X 18.

Here's another shot a little bit closer.

Cheers folks!

Well thanks for you interest. Please keep the idea in mind in case you might do any other setups in the future.

Not a chameleon! But the Avicularia mettalica looks happy in her planted viv.

Hi! We don't have a kit for that size, but there is one for the regular 20 High, which has the 12" X 24" footprint. You can probably find a tank like that for just thirty-five bucks or so.

Didn't you put a Cryptanthus in there? I'd be interested to know how that has done so far. I have been meaning to get some smaller Cryptanthus.

That's looking good! I like those coffee seedlings in there. It looks like those online order plants that you got small have grown some more.

I just formatted a new video featuring this setup to explain the Forest Floor terrarium concept. This is the short (~5:00) version video that I made using some clips that I had. I'll make a somewhat longer one with more detail sometime pretty soon. Thanks for watching...

Any updates at all for this setup? Are those plants still growing in there?

Hey I have your piece almost done. I got a picture of it too I will link it for you pretty soon here. I try to make that plastic plate so that it covers a bit less than the rear half of the enclosure top. The big problem with plexiglass is that it expands when wet, so if you put it in a viv...

Some people said this would be a boring display because tarantulas are still most of the time, but I really like it. Even when the lights are on she is very often right out in front near the top of one of those branches. I am really happy with this display so far. I'll get more pictures pretty soon.

Thanks Montium!
