i have read that a false bottom is the way to go,but id like to have a small pond in my vivarium.i dont see how i can have a pond and a false bottom.can someone explain how?if it cant be done,then how do the guys with ponds deal with the ground being saturated?i was wondering if anyone knew of a link that explained how to build vivariums.id like to have a pond and a waterfall in my vivarium but am unsure of the best way to do it.what type of pump and where should i buy it(for the waterfall).and my last question,the background.what is the best way to build it?id like to have plants growing on the back wall as well.basically a good link describing how to achive these things would be great.

I hate how you can't see what people post when you reply on this board...

You just cut a pond out of the egg crate and put the land on the egg crate and put the pond where the cut is. I think you can see that on my web page....

There are a million ways to make a background...You can use great stuff and then silicon coco bedding, silicon on cork bark flats, silicon coco liners,treefern panels, etc.
