    Hi,

    Just to share with you guys my 2 feet tank. Nothing much but just mosses and some ferns. Been cracking my brain for a long time to find some creature to roam the tank but since I'm living here... what else can I put inside.. haha..

    So its just a feeder frog eating whatever insects that it might find inside.
    Anyway, even negative comments will be appreciated.

    Nice tank! There's no water feature? You might wanna try adding a small pool of water. Then you can add a reed frog or two... Go rescue some from the feeder frog bags, which usually contain small bull frogs.

    (If your feeder is the bull, then it will also turn out to be a bulldozer) Keke...

    Welcome to AQ!
    Looks very natural, perhaps more plants at the back would be nice.

    Welcome welcome, yes very nice tank IMO, fuss free since moss are mostly the plants you use.

    Frogs toads, whatever , i just stay away, don't really like them. i don't mind having poison arrows thou, but thats not possible, AVA will be knocking on my door.
    Cheers!

    Very beautiful. Can be improved though with a waterfall cascading down the V on the left. Your moss would very likely be semi-aquatic, so they would do well with the water. A salamander or skink would look well in your set up too.

    Lovely Bro, it has that 'jurrasic' feel to it. Just can't pinpoint the word but I like it very much.
    Something about the water & the fishes that calms me down.

    Totally agree, it's a beautiful scape... If you want free newts mine are up for adoption. Japanese/chinese firebellies, now sure which kind...

    Ah... you should have told me earlier. I cornered one in the car park (multi-storey carpark at that!) just last week to show my children. I'll catch one for you next time.

    Frogs don't look so well in a mossy environment (unless there are more branches). This is while i recommended skinks...

    Hey! *Grrr...*... 14yos should still be somewhat active what... even if chubby...

    John: Will they be able to climb like normal household lizards? Was thinking of placing one (if ever I get to get hold of one) with my hermits and my hermit tank's cover has a BIG lobang...

    Thanks for the compliments..

    Actually I do have a small pool inside at the front right of the tank. It's just for maintaining the humidity in the tank. I would love to have a water running through but I guess that would require a deeper pool of water, which will be hard to do now.. too lazy.. haha..

    hmmm... salamandas.. think they are great but they will be out of proportion with my scape. Thanks XnSdVd anyway.
    Dart frogs would be nice.. but I'm scared of AVA.. too hot to handle.. so I guess i just stick to my little feeder.

    Wanna make a background actually but not really sure how to do it.. Any ideas, anyone?
    I don't want to plant things at the back as my light is only 36 watts. Too low for most plants I think..

    Oh ya. I don't think the mosses are semi aquatic because from where i got them, there's no direct water source in contact.
    Just high humidity only.
