InvaderJim Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Any updates? I had to post in this thread. Whenever i go into the reptile store i always found myself staring into the poison frog tank they have. This is just awesome. Link to comment
Withers Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 I just took some shots last night! Actually I've got a few to dump of the frogs too. I did some spring cleaning since some of my bromeliads had died and some of the terrestrial plants had gotten out of control (my begonia). I'm going to start filling it in more soon. I'm also testing out a new lighting setup that looks freaking awesome in person. I couldn't be happier with the effect. It looks just like I imagined it would, like having light stream through the canopy of a rainforest.

InvaderJim Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 So awesome. I bet it looks amazing in person. Link to comment
Withers Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 Thanks! It's definitely looking pretty good. I'm quite happy with it and the wife is finally on board with it ever since the change in lighting. Now it doesn't blind her when we watch movies in the room next to it.

Giga Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Gtreat viv! I have a full blown viv like yours, but have been in crazy debate with myself as if I should keep it as I have a new daughter on the way. Link to comment
Clarinet_Reefer Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 March 14th, 2013 by jasonwithers, on Flickr Are you using LED bulbs in those bulbs? I love this setup. Link to comment
19jeffro83 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Still looking good. I like the multiple spot light idea. Makes it more natural looking. Link to comment
Withers Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 Are you using LED bulbs in those bulbs? I love this setup. Yeah, they're 15 watt LED bulbs in there. Link to comment

InvaderJim Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Love how they have such contrasting patterns. Link to comment
RC1313 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Beautiful! I've been wanting to start a vivarium for a while, always kind of turned off by the fact that different color morphs 'can't' mix. Also, I only have a tiny 10 gallon sitting around my house! Link to comment
Withers Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 I personally like keeping them separate, they're interesting enough that they don't really need to be mixed. I still want to make this a multi-species display though. I'm considering putting a group of Ameerega in with them since they're from the same area and are vastly different kinds of frogs (and they can't inter-breed). Link to comment
Withers Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 couple of plant shots. really hoping it warms up soon so I can go outside and take pictures http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonwithers/8590204171/'> http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonwithers/8590204171/'>March 24th, 2013 by http://www.flickr.com/people/jasonwithers/'>jasonwithers, on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonwithers/8590204547/'> http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonwithers/8590204547/'>March 25th, 2013 by http://www.flickr.com/people/jasonwithers/'>jasonwithers, on Flickr Link to comment
