Looks amazing is it glass or screen i cant tell in the pictures

Very nice looking and well thought out. Is the front glass? I couldn't really tell from the photo. How is the air flow in it? Love the way it looks.

sorry, its two screen pannels
i removed them to get a better picture
air flow is fine, very open in the top and wide open in the front

Really cool. What UVb bulb are you using and basking bulb? Also name the plants and maybe some of them are not safe but i can see some are just in case you know what i mean? Just in case

I have checked all the plants in there and none of them are toxic, even if digested.
The UVB bulb I am using is Zoo Med 8.0 (48")
The basking bulb is a 50W basking bulb, aslo a zoo med I believe

really nicely done. I think the zoo med reptisun 5.0 is better and less stronger then the 8.0

I considered that, but I also considered 10.0 with the cage size in mind.
So I went with the one that was inbetween

AH i see that makes since what are the dimensions of the cage im just wondering im not going to tell you to get a bigger cage now lol

 

[adamb94]

48" wide
26" deep

yeah im pretty sure you dont need to be getting him a bigger cage in his/her life. That sounds pretty darn big. Congrats we would love to see more pictures. Im glad to see you are taking the UVB and the caging and plants the right way. Kudos on that

Pothos is one of my favorites!

 

[adamb94]

I am looking for something that will grow like a vine and not from a hanging basket

 

[Silverdusk]

Great set up. Try Bougainvillea for the vine.

Is that a DIY rock face and what are the black branches. Painted, dipped in rubber?
