Hi Tin,
No one down here uses this type of set up, personally I think they are brilliant.
I think I will look into something like in the future

I hope I didn't miss the details in some other thread, but what size is the tank you used? And what type and size of lighting? I have a glass aquarium that is 12" widex17" highx 30" long. I'd like to set it up vertical like yours.

Tin, do you have step-by-step pics of your construction of this viv? I was thinking of having a custom one built by an aquarium shop but the price is a little steep. If I can accomplish the same thing with a 20 or 30 gallon aquarium or is that too big?

Great looking setup Tin. I can't wait to set up a viv and get some more frogs like I used to have.
