The setup looks good, Michelle. I like the Zebra plant in the middle. I liked it in your Milk tank. The background came out real nice. Very Happy

Thanks! First time doing one like this so still a learning process. Messy as heck to do. Will look better when plants grow in. I have more trailing ones to add but at this moment they're still trying to grow roots. Hard to take photos with sunlight coming thru Very Happy

That looks really nice! You two did a great job and like you said, once the plants grow in, you get that finished look. A couple of months and it will be all filled up. Did you custom make the top also with the screened in areas? I love that idea. You are going to have some nice spoiled frogs.

He used a big sheet of acrylic, cut holes out of the top, took some screen and attached to a pair of bucket rims,screwed them into the top, drilled some holes(mini) thru out top and put on hinges. We didn't do water but kept a container sunk into bottom because I feel better cleaning it out on my own.

Something like that would work perfect for keeping the humidity in at my dry house during the winter. Tell Mike thanks!

The holes are way big enough to put lights over so the acrylic won't melt.
