Not the best pic

Looks like one of your geckos could use some fattening up.

That is amazing. Very nice job at that tank!

[fOOlsgOld]

Hey redman what size tank is that??

 

[reddmann]

Its a 40 gal breeder

 

[fOOlsgOld]

OH SWEET! I have a 45Gal tank that I have my oldest female in and have been trying to decide on ways to do a background for her tank and I LOVE how you did yours. Is there any way you could get a few more pictures of it by chance?

 

[reddmann]

I have more pics of it in a thread under housing called "fake styro wall without grout question" or something like that. It shouldn't be far under this thread. Thanks for the compliments.

bump.
Too good a thread to let it slip into the abyss

Here are mine,

Cynder, my fire skinks house. Moved it around slightly since this picture was taken, but nothing too serious.

And of course, Ares' Condo. XD

I have since taken out most of the potting soil in Cynders enclosure. Find it easier to take care of. Lol, and moved the rock and log around. Also changed the food dish.

DIY second story

DIY hide

 

[reddmann]

fishyfan I like that second story and hide, what did you make them out of?

thanks

the second story is styro covered in grout, painted, and then sealed with polyurathane. The hide was made using a tupperware container that i covered in newspaper wads and then paper mached it. After it dried, i painted it and coated it a few times with polyurathane and threw some sand at it while it was drying. Heres a pic of the hide before and after i painted it...

 

[Lady_Kiya]

Wow, that is so creative... I need to make something like that. O.O

I really like that ... if you got a cork background, or one of the foam rock effect backgrounds that would look awesome, you'd need to be careful not to cover the ventilation though

I really like the cork idea, I never would have though of that. I think it would be easy to cut holes in it for the vents. I will have to check it out. Thanks for the great idea. Do you think I could use the office supply cork boards that comes in the square? How could I attach it? Maybe velcro, that way if I need to take it out for any reason it would be simple. Any suggestions would be very much appriecated .
