Rythm's New Tank

[Rythm]

Rythm's New Tank, rocks made from Styrofoam, grout and paint. Still not sure what to do with the moist hide... I want it to be more natural but I like it being able to see through it, and I think he enjoys it to as he sleeps in there a lot.
Let me know what you think!

I think its pretty cool, i have been thinking about doing so styrofoam/grout work myself

 

[LizMarie]

very nice!

What substrate are you using?

Maybe you can cover the humid hide in styrofoam but live a little "window" so you can peep in.

I would say your gecko looks spoiled. Very nice set up, I like the idea of the vine wrapped around the wood. Looks good. :main_thumbsup:

Wow, that looks amazing. Great job! :main_thumbsup:

All of the above That is an awesome set up!

Thanks!
LizMarie, the substrate is an astroturf type carpet I found at homedepot. It's basically an outdoor carpet but it has a super low pile so his little toes don't get stuck, and if he misses a cricket his teeth don't get stuck like they would with regular carpet. It's also super easy to clean!


And with the moist hide I was thinking I could maybe use exanding foam on it? But I was afraid that it might react with the plastic? and I also have no idea what I should make it look like, something other then just another rock...

Love it! Does he climb around a lot?

Cool. I was looking at the substrate and was like it looks like carpet but not like it at the time. I just covered my humid hide with sand but I don't think it would match your decor. lol

Nice job. Lots of stuff for your leo to do.

Oh my, what a lucky spoiled little gecko! It looks like a gecko playground! Lovely job on the design.

 

[LushesGecko]

Sweet looking set up!

Gorgeous gecko & amazing Leo

 

[Rythm]

Thanks!

I'm still looking for input as to what to do with that moist hide though.
I want to build something around the plastic container where it'll be getting sprayed with water regularly.

Wow, I missed the one. I'm glad someone a link to it. Really nice work! I think using the expanding foam on the humid hide will work.
