    Thanks for this. I bought a terrarium the same dimensions that would eventually house 2 to 3 dart frogs. I live in an older house that stays around 61 to 65°F or between 16 to 18°C in the winter time. I wanted to get supplemental heat and I thought a heating pad would be too obstructive so an aquarium heater would do the trick in the drainage layer so I decided I wanted to make a little waterfall/pond area and get a species that didn’t mind a water feature. This gives me great ideas!

    This looks amazing! And a perfect timing, too - I will be making a bioactive setup for my crestie in a couple of weeks.
    If you want to make cleaning of the glass a bit easier, spray it thoroughly with vinegar/ lime juice + water and let it sit for a few minutes. The acid will dissolve the limescale, so you won't need to use the scraper. You may have to repeat the process if the buildup is bad.
    Also - learn from my mistakes: if you are using aquarium silicone with acetoxy cure (smells of vinegar), you want to work outside, or in a REALLY well-ventilated room. Otherwise the fumes will burn your throat, and you will be croaking like a bloody frog for a week.

      ​@@NORTHERNEXOTICS Well it looks good. Mine was too complicated involving expanding foam and cork bark and a series of pools and a pebble wall..... every adjustment led to another leak/flaw/etc being revealed finally I just called it a day and put plants in all the "pools" My Crested Gecko trampled them all to death and/or dug them out lol. In the end I ripped the whole lot out (after a year). Oh boy was that a job and a half!!. I built it all to stay put and it didn't want to come out. Now its very simple she has Her Rubber Plant and a couple more live plants and some cork bark and rocks (all able to be removed if needed). A plain flat coco fibre back ground and bioactive substrate.
      My Male Crestie has the same setup but a slightly more elaborate . He has coconut hides (home made). He is an acrobat and has destroyed all his ground level plants bar one. He has a big Dracanea in the centre and some fake plants too and two rock pools.

    This looks amazing and this is exactly what I wanna do for my gecko, but my only concern is how often do you have to change the water? I’m worried about the sanitary aspects.

    Good job. Thinking of going bioactive, but I live in rural Kansas in the US, and I refuse to pay $50 in shipping for a $5 culture of springtails... Hopefully I can find some in the city when I go to visit in a month or two when things hopefully open up...

    You put a hole in the bottom of the planter cups but then stuck them into the foam, blocking the drainage hole. Did you drill out the foam under the cup so it could drain?

    Have you tried water with vinegar for the calcium deposits? just have to rinse it a few times after to make sure you don't leave any vinegar behind.
    I'm new to this stuff tho but I know vinegar works wonders for calcium deposits. Just watch out with ceramics
    Oh yea. Building a terrarium for my miniature orchids. Excited about it and thinking of adding such a build to it. I have access to a little aquarium pump so that's neat too!

    Hey brilliant set up looks awesome, I am starting my gargoyle gecko upgrade soon and I was just wondering what heat source is the best as I want to have all sides filled with expanding foam. I currently have a heat mat on the outside of one side of my enclosure but would it be safe to do that on my new one thats covered in expanding foam. Thanks
