My New Viv. Progress Shots

How it all Began

First level done.

The wife says it would look better on the other wall. I sure hope it fits.

Whew. It fits. Just barely.

So, The Frame is done.

With just enough space to allow air to flow.

Now for some lights

And some Styrofoam

So far so good, I think

sure.. here are some comments, lol.
What is the size? what are you using? is this for a multiple cage setup?
The tiny pictures make it really hard to figure things out.
For something like this it would be nice to see step by step instructions with each phase. This way if someone wanted to replicate this, they would have a great referral to here.

I like the styrofoam wall idea, it makes all of your basic construction materials compatible.
I've decided to make a removeable piece much like the part of your first viv in the bottom back. I'm waiting to find out what you are going to use to finish the foam. I've seen a few options posted before, just trying to decide.

Their ya go, That wasn't to hard.

As for a step by step, Well...Since It is my first time and I'm taken it kinda as it comes I would have to make it simple because exact details I don't have and unfortunately can't remember.

Size is about 3,30 meters long 2,30 meters and 0,80 meters deep.

Mutiple rack consisting of 6 Individual Vivs with a size of Approximately 1,04 X1,04 X 0,74 meters interior without decoration.

Frame built with 2,4 X 4,4 cm using metal corners and screws.
Walls are consisting of 4.0 cm Styrofoam insulation. wich I am hoping will keep in the heat to cut down on electricity consumption held to gather with food quality silicon.

Interior construction consists of Styrofoam, Silicon and expanding spray foam.

Following are the original fotos in a larger size.
