Coupla views of my first attempt at a vivarium. This is just the start, hafta finish the glass and screen, then put the door on it. I still need to provide the lighting as well. Gonna plant a philodendron in it for the critters. And what kind of critters? Lookin' at a coupla these in this: tiger legged monkey frogs.

Looks real good. I don't guess i've ever heard of that kind of frog. Kinda neat looking. Can't wait to see it finished.

I missed you posting pics, but that is pretty sweet.

I didn't have any luck finding the screen H frames you were talking about at Lowes, so at some point, if you can shoot some pics or if you have the item number from them that would be awesome. I've got a cracked 10 here that I've had the bug to do up like you did yours for a tokay gecko ever since you first mentioned it.

What glue did you go with for the stuff on the inside by the way?
