I just completed my first Exo-Terra with a live plant. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out. In fact I now have plans to redo my other Exo Terra with live plants and to make 3 or 4 more. I hope each one looks better than the previous.
I havent put anything in it yet. I have 3 candidates though, P ornata, P formosa and C schioedtei. Might turn the ornata loose in there......unless I change my mind lol

Nice viv you got there. Last year I made the switch from plastic to live, and it was one of the best desicions I've ever made. Good luck with any other construction. ~ Rex

Great Job Brian! I really need to get back into 'planted' enclosures as well. Definately let the P.ornata lose in that, she'll love it!

Thanks,
I keep most of my stuff in sterlite boxes so it is a nice change to make something more visually appealing

That is an awesome setup! I agree I think you should toss the Ornata in that one. They do like to wander more then other pokies from what I noticed so maybe she would do better. Make sure you add pics when who ever gets in there gets settled! :clap:

Yup, same here. I have many sterlite containers and a couple tanks to keep my eyes pleased. :D
