Has anybody used this in their cham cage before???

I was going to but then worried that nails would be able to pierce it, in the end I yacht varnished the sides and encapsulated leaves and soil in resin for a base

Do you remember the brand and where you bought the resin? I've been trying to figure out a way to make a naturalistic bottom for my enclosure.

I got it on eBay if you search for "casting resin - water clear". I used plastic leaves, soil and a few bags of "scatter" from a model shop. Will try and post a pic

To be honest I don't really know what kind yet, just wondered if it would be safe for chams if fully cured?? I would have thought it was as they use liquid rubber to make plywood fish tanks

Oh... well i know that there is a product out there to line concrete ponds (as in fish ponds or water gardens). I think its "painted" on... maybe sprayed on? I do not know the name of it though. I would think if its fish safe then it would be ok but that is just my opinion. I would search through google or whatever search engine you like to use and see if you can find the product then contact the manufacturer about how you want to use it. Maybe they can help?

Cool base. I will have to keep that in mind when I build my cage for Draco.
