After being to Australia for 4,5 months a few years ago, i always wanted to turn my vivarium in a piece of Ozzie Outback.

awesome! What did you use for the background? How is it holding up to wear and tear? Does it clean well? Way cool design!!

WOW !! that is really great, what is the back made out of.

The background is made out of polystyrene (which gives a BIG mess ), which is later reinforced with 5 layers of tile-adhesive, mixed with an oxide-red, waterbased color. The last layer has about 5-6 different shades, ranging from beige to dark brown/red, and applied very subtle. Unfortunately that's hard to see on the pics due to the spotslights. But the result is a very solid background that can endure all the climbing the beardies want.

That's like the beardie equivalence of the presidential suite at the Plaza. WOW!!

Absolutely gorgeous!

I'm ashamed of mine now
