Default New Viv

Just thought I'd post a couple of pix of my new cornsnake viv, built using a sheet of Walnut veneered MDF that I got free from work, all I had to buy was the glass, runners, and fingerplates (last two from Louise (loobylou211)), the vents were free from work too. Total cost under £20!

Size is 32" x 24" x 15"

OK I'll post some pics of that sometime too. It's a viv I made for dartfrogs a year ago, but still haven't got around to getting any frogs for it!

It's nicely mature now with the plants growing really well, there's Ficus, Broms, Ferns, Pothos and various others.

You beat us too it, we were also going to ask what the planted vivarium was for. Photos would be great if you have a spare 5 with the camera. Certainly looks very mature now.
