nice frogs!

Here's a short video clip of the tank

awesome video......so natural......many frogs

[aquarius]

Really nice to see the final product. I thought the scape would have been better if the wall panels were covered up with more vegetation. Not only that, it'll provide more covering for the frogs from the glare of the lights.

Bro aquarius, trust me Eddy tried, I tried too, but White's Tree frogs are just too rough and fat... they'll almost pull out any vegetation not strong enough on the background apart from large broms and ferns

[Fei Miao]

Cool, I want to see the real thing!

quite true , they (***) will rescape the setup for you everytime , only sturdy plants remain

Eddy,
I've been reading this thread, as well as your other 6ft project, and must say that these are very ambitious undertaking. Kudos kid!! Well thought out, well executed and followed through.

It was awesome to see the works in action and all those fat fat frogs with hearty appetite! Can't help thinking of frog leg porridge after Selena and I left *yummy!!*. She's very impressed too and 'fortunately', doesn't have the space (maybe she'll bug me for a smaller version). Oh, and in case you didn't realize, your new toy is a "paludarium".

Here's your "Darling" (lutino cockatiel)... hope you're not thinking of having it live inside the froggies' home!


Let me dig around and see if I can pass you a sampling of live sphagnum moss. These should do great with the 6-footer's misting system.

The frog's a$$ is as big as the bird's head. OMG!

[Wackytpt]

I will come to rescue the cockatiel if it is living in there.

My male cockatiel needs a mate.

Hi Ron,

Thanks for coming over last night to boost up my confidence to feed my "Darling" (lutino cockatiel) with careful syringe feed. Its wasn't easy at all. I felt my 'Darling could make friends with all the fatties, and Darling will never live alone in that tank!

[Wackytpt]

Hand feeding is easy.... =p

Let not sidetrack from thread.

very interesting set up.. ..nice indeed..

Why not?

Its will be very entertaining to talk about Lutino and its new friends The White Tree Frogs. Its will be a good experience to see both Lutino and Frogs, how their chemistry will be when they meet up.

I bet they will hit off good friends..dont you agree, Nic?

Eddy,
Keeping it on topic makes discussion relevant (easier for mods to maintain thread too!) but... I think it's a great idea to continue either with Eugene or Nick's thread... or kick off one of your own (like a journal).

Now... back to our regularly scheduled program... Eddy, do you think I can do a mini mini paludarium with a 1foot cubie tank? Found it in the storeroom and that was my first thoughts! Should have that tiny Eden powerhead somewhere...

[dkk08]

Hey Ron, why not, it's possible to turn your 1ft tank into a mini paludarium, why not do it at the workshop (if we have a workshop for Vivarium/Paludarium)

[RonWill]

Desmond,
It's a very small tank, compared to what you guys have done. Dimensions alone, severely limits the flora & fauna selection and that stretches creativity!

Keeping it to basics, possibly nothing more than a nice backdrop (love to do what others & Eddy have DIYed), couple of bogwood/twigs, some pebbles and moss! No fat fat frogs! Then again, I can pull out a couple of smaller 4-legged whatchamacallit kup pohs from Eddy's other tank!

Is there a workshop in the pipeline?? I'll dig around for appropriate pieces of small driftwood... never thought I'd be using them again but as always, game to try!

[eddy planer]

Ron,

We will soon to start palu/viva workshop sometime Oct after my daughter complete her PSLE next month. Meanwhile I'm trying to invite the master guru, actually the adviser behind my 1st DIY Palu project. Then with him around, this workshop will be greatly benefiting to AQ palu DIY to be members.

You are to will be inviting to join us if you're really free.

[RonWill]

Eddy, please text me if there's any confirmed dates for the workshop. May I have 2 seats? I'll try to have something sketched out and gather opinions/suggestions. Many thanks in advance.
