I finished my Exo-terra build, should be fruit fly proof and ready for some leucs.
There is a small waterfall and pond powered by 2 Aqualifters hooked up in parallel.
Picked up some cheap plants at Golden Acres, we'll see what grows. Still need to get a couple small broms for the back.
The Mist King is great, the timer can go down to 1 sec.







Thanks for the inspiration you guys!

It looks AWESOME!!! Nice work.

Can you post a picture of the timer? When I bought Mist King stuff a couple years ago there was no timer available from him. (I've never gotten around to setting up a vivarium yet, I'm just pack-ratting the equipment until the day comes that I have time to take care of it.) A timer with 1-second resolution is something I'd love to get my hands on. Can it be sold separately or do you have to buy a whole new kit, do you know?

Sure no problem. They sell the timer as a $28.99 add on, you would think they would sell you one separately.
It came in Mistking packaging with nothing identifiable except the product # on the back.
Tony I ended up with way to much coco bark, substrate material and other stuff so if you decide to give it a go let me know.
So now to order springtails and fruit flies.

Don't have a full shot of the terrarium but here is my little guy...

He is a Gargoyle Gecko named Velcro. My brother has Velcro's girl at his place. Actually Velcro is over at my brothers place right now mating. He quite the little machine!



Just after eating...his mouth is kinda dirty



Baby picture!

No offense, but those torts have some horrible pyramiding happening. And usually in the case of red foots and other forrest torts it's due to either poor diet or too low a humidity. Can I ask what your feeding them? A Diet too high in fruit will destroy them, it should only make up about 10% of their WEEKLY diet, not daily. Not trying to be rude, just hate seeing torts with pyramids. But the pen looks great. At least your giving them room

My sulcatas are rescues and have a little pyramiding because the people who owned them before were feeding them way too much protien and way too much food as it were. They have since stopped pyramiding and are growing up nicely.
