I decided to set up a bio active rainforest vivarium to keep busy, this whole build ended up getting a bit out control lol and is still a work in progress at the moment, so I had some ideas regarding plants and after a bit of thought I decided to set up a 20 gal with sliding doors.
This my background build below, its already got the false bottom and charcoal in, I wanted a light coloured rock fake rock background so I went with "slate" grey grout colour.
Skip a few steps and I'm at this stage, I've also added dwarf isopods, springtails of course and leaflitter etc
Plants in the above pic, Bottom left is fittonia, back left is dracaena sanderiana (lucky bamboo) in 3 colour forms (lemon lime variegated, green, and normal variegated) also in amongst the dracaena foliage are bare canes waiting to grow some new leaves.
Top right corner is pothos "neon" is also called pothos "lime".
Under that on the wall are two native maidenhair ferns.
Underneath that jutting rock on the right is a dwarf wandering Jew species and at the front right are more variegated lucky bamboo canes,I also added lots of feather moss on the floor and back wall.
Side view.......
top view of the layout.....
......and I'm done, anyways thanks for looking
