Will do as soon as they are finished. Resin is coming in on tuesday to finish my new terrariums. Two 2'x2'x2' cubes and another cube divided in half.

That sound awesome....rob

HEY ROB! Me again... The background in this ornata's cage, I take it you made it too. Did you just silicone real bark to foam? It looked way too real to be paint or just cocoa fiber. Is it even safe to paint the foam? Thanks again.

Actually, it's just real tree bark glued to the back of the glass itself with brown caulk in between and substrate added where needed...here's a tutorial of how I made it...

She was pissed, she was striking the tongs, if you watch the video again, I made a mistake when getting her out....her leg was right near my hand and she could have nailed me.....rob

Yeah, it looked like you were holding the tongs much too close to the end the T was on... I would've put a few more inches... or feet... between my hand and that T!

Seriously though, beautiful enclosure, as usual! And awesome handling of the T, I can't imagine ever being able to do that. Kudos! :clap:

Thanks...and yeah, I didn't even notice how close my hand was to her until I watched the video...way too close!!
