GRIMM Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Here is my vivarium currently under construction. I met a few people from this forum that suggested I post it here even though it isnt an aquarium, since it is quite complex and big. Im only posting a link to my most recent video, however I have the entire build video documented and explained on youtube. Thanks to anyone here who has supplied me with plants and bits of information, especially whoever suggested thedriftwoodstore.com to me. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0nuRRro698 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you posting on here to remind me. I know who's brain i'm picking when I build mine! You probably saw it on edmonton reptiles forum. Unfortunately no one appreciates stuff like this on there, so it doesnt get much attention. They love their tupperware! I spend most my time posting all my stuff on dendroboard.com. I think most aquarists would like this though, so thats why I posted here. The final product will look very similar to a high end planted aquarium, similar to Mr Amano's style, but with more colour due to vibrant tropical plants. thanks for making me feel less satisfied with my tank lol Haha no problem buddy :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GRIMM Posted May 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 (edited) Ok here is where I'm at. I'll let it air out tonight, and start the wet test run tomorrow night. If it passes, I'll start adding my moss mix everywhere and turn the misting system on overdrive. I cant decide what mood I'm in.,,, Edited May 25, 2011 by GRIMM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx Thanks bud. Once I finish the planting I'll definitely put together a plant list. I dont even want to think about how long it'll be though haha. I probably have about 20-30 orchids, with at least 7 more to come. I'll be getting 5-10 species of bromeliads. I have at least 5 different types of vines, a few begonias for the floor, 3 types of anubias, 2 types of floating plants....And I could keep going on haha. My small 20 gallon tanks have about 15 different species of plant each, so I got a lot more room to play with in this 150 gallon. For mosses, as of right now I have...Java, weaping, spike, riccia, christmas, round leaf pellia (almost a moss), and a few type of unidentified tropical mosses from greenhouses and plants. It'll be GREEN when finished. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
