Starting new dartfrog viv - picture step by step
I have just started putting together a new dart viv for the living room and thought I would do a picture step by step of progress.
The bare bones are a 60x45x45 Exo Terra  First siliconed up the cable holes to prevent fruit flies escaping and got 4 pieces of glass cut to cover the mesh  Next siliconed coco-fibre panels onto the back and sides  Next added all the dry decoration. Floor is built up of peat plates and the large lumps are peat bricks. Peat bricks were cut down to make them thinner to be attached to the background, these are siliconed and held in place to dry with cocktail sticks. A couple of dried mushrooms were also siliconed to the background. From front:  From top:  Next step (hopefully tomorrow) will be making a shallow pool at the front and starting to add plants. More pics to follow as it progresses

Looks great mate...
Quick question (and apologies for slightly off-topic but is relevant I think) Regarding the peat bricks - Are these just B&Q type ones? Have you had to do anything with them (treat them or anything?) I'm looking to build up my Whites viv and wanted to do something similiar. Cheers, Tom
