30 X High Planted Viv

I wanted to experiment a little bit and try to make a nice planted layout just with plants. This is just a preliminary result.

I'm working on livestock ideas for this. I might add a few thin manzanita branches, but I'm going to count on the plants to fill most of the space. It will look more natural when I add some leaf litter to it.

Didnt I see this on dendro???

By livestock, you mean milli's? Im really curious to see how this sucker turns out. Are the plants going to be very tall, say 30" or so? I dont know much about this stuff, and figure if Im gonna derail you, this is how :biggrin:

If I put any livestock in here I think it will be some kind of real small frog.

With the space taken up by the false bottom there is about 20" of vertical space in there. I can just prune plants as they start to get too big--very easy.
