My First Planted Viv

[Grete_J]

After the BCRC show the other week, I haven't been able to stop thinking about this cute gecko who spent all of Sunday on my shoulder. I thought I'd give a planted vivarium a shot in the event that I do get him

I know, it's not a fw, sw, brackish aquarium.... but it's still sort of an aquarium....

Terrarium is an 18" x 18" x 24" ZooMed


1" or so of Hydroton for drainage


Covered with landscaping type cloth


Substrate is a mix of coco coir, organic potting soil and sphagnum moss


Coco fibre mat is held to the back by arbutus branches & thread




Giant arbutus branch is too.... giant... takes up more space than I want

Here's Lukas settling into his new home

Now that looks like a perfect habitat. Seems small but I don't know anything about reptiles!

Awesome pictures!
