Default GTP Naturalistic Vivarium. Pic Heavy.

Took a lot of effort. Finally completed.
She's in Shed at the minute so not looking her best.

Quick video here too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2sOQdVZ1_o











Took a while, but worth it.
Fogger is on a timer to go off for 15 minutes. Once at 9am, and again at 8pm. It doesn't really raise humidity, I just like it.

Does anybody know of any decent auto misting systems? I've been reading up on Habba Mist, basically its a no-go from I've read, rubbish.

Does anybody have the Lucky Reptile Super Rain? Could they give me their inputs and possibly pictures of it in action please?

Thanks
Yeah its alright suprisingly, took a bit of messing around but my last 'normal' set up did too. covered 3 of the 4 exo terra roof mesh panels with acryllic. Got a basking plate on the left which sets a nice ambient temp and the right side has a ceramic outside the mesh, both statted work nicely.

Spray it about 6pm ish and its fine for another day.

Yeah, one stat for the basking plate on the left side sets the ambient temp, and the right side stat is a Ceramic for a hotspot but it can heat the whole viv by itself, just backups really.

Cheers,
I Know, luckily the plants are potted so I can take that out, and the water bowl comes out easily. plus its got a fake floor midway so it can all lift out when i need to replace the substrate!

Thanks mate!
Yeah I've wanted to do her a nice Naturalistic set up for a while, read up on what plants and asked for a bit of advice and finally thought why not give it a go!
