Default New royal viv kitted out with swimming pool!

Hey hey hey. Have just finished setting up my Royals viv. Have built two pieces of decor to replace the fake rock background temple emerging from the cliff. Started with a small hide, bought a medium, large and finally replaced it with a xl hide. They quickly outgrew that so I built them a 2 storey building complete with balcony and as you can see they already love it! Also got too big for their waterbowl so I built the a swimming pool! lol Here's the pics. Hope you like.

Thanks guys. Thats a nice compliment! They've started going behind it now rather than inside. lol

And it was built dead easily. Just polystyrene, grout, paints and pva to coat and waterproof it.

What are the dimensions of the pool as im sure my boy would love a swimming pool and as he has a 3x2x2 viv he already has a monster house. But he will only be moving in in a about 2 months...Gives me lots of time to get it set up..

Glad they like it and nice1! As my snakes outgrew the largest of the Exo terra water bowls I was stuck with what to do. I knew a RUB was the next step but i didn't just want it sat in the viv looking all ugly. That's when my fake rock backgrounds came into effect and I made this. They look better than just a tub full of water imo and work gr8. Glad you made 1. Put some pics up. I'm going to make a few more elaborate 1's soon for the bigger snakes.

PS not sure on dimensions, not larger tho, the RUb is only 1ft by 2ft i think?
