Eddy's 36'' x 24" x 48" Paladurium Construction Journal : Pictures!

Hi eddy, after much consideration, I decided that building a new tank would be a more viable option. Can you share the tank maker's contact, so I can get a quotation from him? My single frog deserves a bigger home! Thanks!!

Hi Benjamin,

I must salute and very happy to see your enthusiasm of planning DIY Terra-tank.

In meanwhile, you will have a problem with the glass maker to allow you to DIY their working space as their timetable is packed with their turnkey projects. I'm personally incapable of getting a quotation of 833 sump tank from the glass maker. I have been chasing him for almost two weeks.

I can recommend you getting a ready made Exo-Terra tank from Malaysia which suit to your budget. My presume they offer FOC delivery. Here is the link for your preference.

Oh haha. I was thinking of a 2x2x4/5 tank for my frog. Haha. So the only way will be to custom make it. If I hire them to build it for me, then isit possible? I'm currently sourcing for ways to bring in frogs on my own. So might as well get a big tank and get ready for the new frogs.

Hi Benjamin,

The problem is the glass maker is hesitant to make 833 sump tank for me. They are packed with turnkey projects, and the glass maker does not want any other promises at this point of time.

That's why I linked the website earlier for you, which are most acceptable for your frogs.

[benjamin216]

Ohoh. I actually thought you wanted to use their space to build the monster 833 yourself. Haha. The website sells good stuff but their terrariums are much smaller than what I wanted. Btw, was troublesome when you brought your *** back from Thailand? As in the paperworks and clearence side.

Hi Benjamin,

Maybe you can try another glass maker. You can try to print out the copy of my CAD sketch and determine the dimension yourself and show it to the glass maker. Ask him for the quote. Hope this will help.

Hats of to you Eddy, I'm still waiting to be invited to see the actual tank
Great photos Desmond!

You guys want to see really happy frogs?

[eddy planer]

hi ken

When will you be free? Just send a private message to me, and we go for coffee near my home.

[dkk08]

Thanks Ken, I'm still learning my photography skills... the subject was pretty easy to take I should put it haha

[dkk08]

Yo Eddy any updates?

[RonWill]

Des, our friend flew off again. Probably back this Wednesday. This bugger is d@mn busy one!!

[dkk08]

Hahaha let me guess, his cockatiel is with you?

[RonWill]

Fortunately, no. Selena (my partner in crime) and I taught his family how to care for the cockatiel and they're managing ok. Our contact numbers are with them in times of need. I'm pretty tight on space as is because I'm caring for a few boarding parrots from my expat regulars.

Anyway, Eddy & I met at the bird shops around Serangoon area and he now knows why I wanted to DIY false rocks and stuffs... and it isn't for frogs! [don't ask 'cos I won't tell! LOL!!] I been watching video clips on youtube but can't wait for the viva workshop!!

hi,
eddy,

Where to buy coconut husk and multi bond???

thanks

[hayabusa]

hey eddy, i've never been into vivariums at all and have never posted in this section. but after seeing all your hard work, i must really say it's paying off very well. i think you just got me poisoned into another passionate hobby, everything about your set up is stunning and tongue grabbing.

i wish you luck, remember to take a breather for yourself as well.

regards,
baker.

Hi Bro,

Sure, buddy!

My background which I did peat, wood chips and polymer starting to rip apart... The reason is the left over big black crickets eating up the black ground slowly and thus created holes as big as 50 cent coin. So these fatties grabbed this opportunity and ripped the back ground apart to create the new hiding place!!!! Sighs.....
