    Sorry for the late upload today. I lost power last night and had to finish the video this morning. I would have been done before yesterday, but I've been juggling a lot of big projects (this being one of them). Can't wait to show you what else I have in the works. Hope everyone has a great day/weekend! Also let me know what I should do with Samson's old 40 gallon once we move him to this one. Planted tank, paludarim, vivarium? You tell me!

    Just awesome, Tanner! This inspires me for when I decide to own an African Bullfrog one day. I love the Universal Rock and may order from them soon. :)

    Hey Tanner; so, I got my Pixie frogs shortly after your first build for them, and it was what introduced me to your channel. Well, we just bought a house and their tank cracked in the move. Lo-and-behold; the timing was perfect as you had recently done your update!
    Finally starting our build now that the rest of the immediate house is unboxed. Will be referencing your water features videos for our own pond once we get through this Chicago winter.
    Just wanted to say thank you, for all you do!

    absolutely stunning! I have rescued a frog once that was on the verge of death (dehydrated and very skinny, was laying on the road) and nurtured it back to health with the help of an expert an released it back into a nearby pond that has a lot of frogs. Since then I have been wanting to get a pet frog for a long time. This video is very inspiring for me to make a similair thing in the future. Great work :)

  • @unthreadead

    I wish all of our reptile/amphibian/fish owners cared and put as much time and effort in as you do. Sometimes it's a fight to get people to put their animals in the bare minimum size requirements and here you are, making full gorgeous setups for them all. You're solidly an example of what pet ownership should be.

  • @k.a.u.4599
    @k.a.u.4599 3 года назад

    That wrapping of the plants with the geotextile fabric is a great idea for planted hermit crab tanks! Even when they pull them up they are less likely to destroy them completely and they can be replanted easily.

    I used Syngonium in a leaf toad tank a few years ago. Within six months the entire 18X18X18 cube was packed with Syngonium! Additionally, there are lots of colorful cultivars for anyone who chooses to brave this aggressive terrarium plant. I'd love to see Tanner incorporate some Vanilla in this enclosure. It' get's huge but it is much more manageable than Syngonium and Pathos long term.
    Cheers,
    Chris

    Thanks for showing a method for definitively determining what glass is tempered after the last video. As someone who may one day not be afraid of cutting glass, it'll definitely help.
    As a side note, I'm not a fan of the look of faux rock, but given the size of a 75 gallon and how much it would weigh and cost to use solid rock, I'm all for it.

    • @FantaLiteBrav
      @FantaLiteBrav 4 года назад +6

      When you own an adult male of this species the enclosure has to be incredibly robust. Tanner's learnt from the last setup and improved on it to make sure it both meets the needs of the animal and is visually appealing.

    • @JohnSmith-th3db
      @JohnSmith-th3db 4 года назад +1

      I think it would look better if it has moss grown into the background, universal rock backgrounds just don’t compare to a original background made by tanner

    I think the layout and plant selection is awesome, but it needs more small details. Smaller rocks on the water and land, pebble/gravel in some areas mixed w/the sand. Growing moss on the back wall would be awesome too- just a suggestion! Love your content dude.

    Love this build, having seen all the bullfrogs out this year, it looks just like a slice of wilderness that you'd find one in. Sometime I'd love for you to do a difficult terrarium for say a ball python or animal that likes to unintentionally trample plants, just to see how you tackle that problem (I've tackled it by picking hearty plants but they aren't the most aesthetically pleasing xD )

  • @clydesdale1775
    @clydesdale1775 4 года назад +1

    I just set up my first paludarium ever, inspired by you of course. I used the egg crate and zip tie method to create the land, and it even has a little water fall. I'm having a bit of trouble with the water feature, but that's expected. I'm super curious about the aquatic clean up crew! I'm already well versed in isopod and spirngtail cultures, and I was wondering if they had an underwater equivalent. :)

    • @thea_kober
      @thea_kober 4 года назад

      there are aquatic species of isopods and springtails! well, the springtails actually walk on the surface of the water, so idk if they can be called aquatic, but they're cool anyway :p
