I'm going on xmas break after Thursday and won't be back in school until the end of January so I have A LOT of time but NO money so I was looking for cheap ways to upgrade Lanas Studio Apt, Lol (10 gallon tank).
- I'm planning to get some tile to replace the paper towel substrate
. I just love the look of tile and I think she'll like it.
- Plan to make 2hides out of "I can't believe its not butter" container". I was planning on gluing sand and plastic plants on to the outside and then sealing it. One hide would be a humid hide with either sphagum moss or coconut fiber and the other one would just be a plan old hide.
- I would also like to make a small second level so I could put a little hide and possibly a water dish to give her more room on the bottom since she's growing and fattening up like a beast. Plus it would give her more room when "hunting". I was thinking of getting using an acrylic frame that is glued in then having a piece of slate to lay on top of it and using double sided tape so it doesn't move much and having either an acrylic ramp with glue ridges and a plastic plant glued along the edge so it seems like a hand rail. OR i was thinking of purchasing a log type thing that she could climb on. The ramp I imagine would start on top of her hide because she's also ways climbing on top of them instead of in them and it wouldn't take up floor space.
How does that sound? I want to try and maximize space until I can get her a bigger tank like a 20gallon long, since the 29gallon my mom mentioned is going to cause more then a headache than what it's worth.
