Anyone have any pictures of a 20 gallon high converted to being a vertical enclosure? Thanks in advance.

Hey David. Here is a photo of a vertical 20L I made for my Mom before she passed away in October. I do the same thing with all my vertical 10's for pumilios and thumbnails. I have the acrylic piano hinges and pulls (knobs) for the flip down front. I have also started using door catches to keep the doors nice and secure.

Ken,

How do you secure the acrylic hinge to the glass? I was under the impression that acrylic couldn't be siliconed.

Yeah, all I use is silicone. I have never had a problem of it coming loose or anything. In fact, I had a door fall open (luckily I was standing there so the frogs didn't get out) and the glass top part shattered, but the hinge held up. That's why I use the acrylic door catches now.

Hey Dave,

I do but email me for them. bgreen@thechocohut.com
I am in the middle of changing website names so everything is down. I am working on a webpage for the DIY.
