lookin good.
how do you like that oceanic?
the one i have ( somewhere around a 40 GAL. tall) isn't the greatest. first thing i did when i got it used from a friend was redo the screen, it was all stretched out. the other thing that i really don't like about it is what happens when watering.
when spraying from the top, the water builds up on the side glass, rolls down, builds up along the bottom of the screen door and goes straight out of the cage all over the table.
any problems with yours?

No, I spray thru one of the side doors, and the water stops in all the furniture, vines and logs and very little comes out the other side screen door. I have a water distiller (Sears sells them) so I've eliminated the problem of mineral build-up on the glass, since water in this part of the country is hard. I wonder if putting a piece of plastic down covered with a slab of repticarpet underneath the Oceanic in your case would "catch" the water that escapes the cage and let it evaporate into the air without damaging the table underneath. I'm already using repticarpet in some cases to cushion the cage.

well, i wasn't really worried about the table since it was really crappy, i was just annoyed at the fact that i was watching that much water run out of the screen and onto the table that should be used towards keeping the humidity up. i did end up laying a few towels down under the aquarium though.
