Now all you need are some ackies
so that will house them as adults?. looks great.
hey mate just want to ask a few more question's cause i am thinking of getting a monitor soon.
with the flood lights what type of bulbs did you use and do you need flueroecent for night times or would a CHE and a UVB light do the trick.?
and how thick should i have the gaps for the rete's stack and should it be re-built when there adults.
cheers a heap mate thanks.
is there anyway you could link me to were i can get the lights cant find them would they be at bunnings.
I really like your enclosure but think I would prefer the background this colour. Very well done mate.

Yeah it still turned out great and my rock wall is a similar colour but what i did with mine because I am no good at painting was lightly sprayed black paint over the wall and then put the last coat on and you can slightly see some of the black through. I also used stuff called liquid sandstone instead of render, not sure if that would be suitable for monitors though.Colour in the picture looks good but it was alot more black then it looks, i think it was the combination of iphone 4 camera and the yellow fluros that made it look that colour. I agree though that colour would of been great.
Im slightly colour blind and have no skill with painting or shading (can paint a wall with a roller tho lol), ended up just using oxide colours.

I didn't want to get too fancy with the colours either as I am not too arty. I use a piece of black slate on the basking shelf for my bearded dragon. It doesn't really look like part of the wall but is a lot better for my lizard. It could probably be integrated a bit better if I had planned it from the start.Just did a quick google on "liquid sandstone", says it stays cool to touch? Probably not the best if you wanted to heat up a ledge made out of it but seems like an easy product to use.
I was going to spray on black to add shadow and then add colour (i had silver, gold, brown, green, oche, black and white) but was to affraid i would stuff it all up and it would come out horrible.
