New Enclosure

victor_1616 Dec 17, 2003 09:24 PM

Hi,
I have decided to go ahead and build a large tank for my whites tree frogs. I recently received a 75 gallon bow front aquarium and wanted to turn it into a beutiful cage for my wtf. Right now i am in the planning stage of building it and was wondering first off how many wtf can i put in this 75 g. and second i was hoping people could post pics of there wtf enclosures to give me some ideas.

Please Reply

P.S. below is a pic of 1 of my whites, Gumbie.

It's not strictly a WTF tank, but it's 74 gallon bow front.

bgexotics - Go to the KingSnake Gallery and do a search on username "TimsViv" in the Terrariums, Cages, Etc section. I've got several progress pictures in there that might help.

Beautiful tanks! Just have two questions for you guys.

First, do you mind me asking how much you paid for the cork bark on the background. my LPS wants $20 for enough to barely cover the back of a 10g (and i have a 55!!) did you order online? if so where?

Secondly, what do you mean by not strictly a WTF tank?? theres not WTF and darts in there...... right??????

Really Cool. Only problem is Im in Canada, Vancouver, precisley. i could have it shipped to our Summer house in Pt. Roberts, whasington, there VERY lenient about getting animals back across the border there, (of course i'd still do it leagally!)Are these your frogs? or a friend?? id like the oldest i can get, idealy over a year so i can be sure it is a male. thanks for the oppertunity even if it dosent work out!
