Hello again, as promised in my introduction thread, I am going to show everyone our new snake tank. We have been working on it for the past 3 weeks, and are pleased with our progress. We wanted to go with a naturalist theme for the tank, and I think we pulled it off well.
The dimensions for the tank are 48" L x 18" D x 21" H and I believe is a 75g.
We are using Eco-Earth as the substrate, I know aspen is the preferred bedding material, however I happen to be allergic to the dust in the aspen and due to the amount we needed to put in this tank it was not an option.
Now to the pictures!
After the initial cleaning and set up.
Setting in the main decorations for sizing and getting a general idea for the setup.
Adding the Eco-earth after re-hydrating two bricks and letting them sit in the sun for 3 days.
Beginning grouting of the fake rock background.
After painting, waiting for the sealant to dry.
A close up of the paint and texture of the fake rock.
Adding the fake rock wall to the tank.
Adding the foliage to the nearly complete tank.
Highlight of the tank!
Thank you for viewing!
