Crested Gecko's Live Tank

[Syn]

Finally finished the tank today. Yum, broken pots in my mouth and one fragment into my eye!

Drumroll..

IT'S ALIIIIIVE!

 

[Syn]

Oh, and just for fun.. Spot Kitty and Girl!

(Hint: They are right by each other.)

 

[Vegas Chad]

Looks good. They are in the back right.

 

[Syn]

Thanks Chad! Ding ding ding! You got it. Not much fun when their eyes reflect light!

 

[Pure]

Looks great! You should get into planted tanks. You have a knack for setting up a visually appealing display.

Do I even want to know why you have pot shards in your mouth? LOL Your not supposed to break them with your teeth.

 

[Zen Reptiles]

Looks great!

I can't tell if those bromeliads are stuck in the soil or not, but if they are, you're gonna want to mount them or else they will rot.

Bromeliads get their moisture from the humidity in the cage (should be sprayed daily).

Whats the greyish substrate stuff? curious.

broken pots in my mouth and one fragment into my eye!

How on earth?.....Oh never mind!

 

[Syn]

Greyish? The stuff in the tupperware? It's sphagnum moss, must have caught the light funny.

Thank you Pure! Unfortunately when I was breaking the pots a couple of stray pieces flew into the air every now and then.. I ended up getting one small piece in my mouth and chomping down on it later.. yuck.

Brock - I'll have to message you about that.

 

[jojackson]

No the grey stuff on the floor

 

[Syn]

The substrate? It's wet. Probably just shiny. It's organic soil.

 

[jojackson]

Ah ok.
Bet they love that tunnel pipe!

Any sign of your lost snake? are you still leaving mice or anything?

 

[Syn]

They love hiding in it. I have 2 more but there isn't much room.

No sign of him. I think he's in the wall. *sigh*

Oh thats a nice setup. What kind of tube is that? Like a plastic pipe tube from the harware store? I know some people used the paper towel roll tubes.

 

[insert name here]

Looks like a PVC pipe.

 

[Syn]

It's a PVC pipe. I had a long one, asked someone to cut it for me, there it is!

I use paper towel tubes too, but after so long they get all soggy and start coming apart. If you look hard enough there is one in the first picture.

 

[chameleon guy]

Was it frustrating? It's okay. We all lose our temper and eat pots. Just kidding.

 

[Syn]

Nah it was actually very easy to set up, breaking the pots was the worst part, I still have to clean up the stray fragments from the cement sidewalk outside..

 

[Pure]

Next time..Instead of teeth

Those bromiliads are going to want a fair amount of light as well as more drainage like brock said. Looks good. Some Pothos would be nice in there too.

 

[Vegas Darci]

Geeze, you sure do set up a nice tank for them. Ours are way less complex. I spotted them right away too!
