    I've done several mixed species paludariums now, absolutely love them... Great job

    Nice palu…. I would add some wood up top in the land area, could really help the overall terrestrial scape. I would steer clear of dart frogs in this tank. The way that land area is…. sort of a platform, it’s a death sentence for the poor swimming dart frogs. I’d recommend some sort of semi aquatic frog…

    Really loved seeing this. I've recently finished building my first bioactive setup from plywood for my asian water dragon Hunter complete with waterfall, river system, pond, sump, live fish, shrimp, isopods, springtails, live plants, branches and even Contra Vision for the glass (his breed can't see transparent materials so hopefully this will be a fix for this). It's taken £800, 6 months of work, and I already have a million ideas to make it better next time and starting to plan my next project. Honestly tv is boring when you can do this lol

      Dart frogs are horrible swimmers and easily drown, I don’t recommend anybody keeping them in an enclosure with a water area they cannot stand in

    I'd put White's tree frogs, turtles, and small community fish that would readily breed - guppies, kuhli loaches, tetras, and dwarf cichlids in there.

  • @elementalflowerhornsaquati7413

    It’s cool, but no cichlids.

  • @jonrhodes7004
    @jonrhodes7004 Před 2 lety

    Don't put darts in that enclosure. The water is way too deep and darts have been known to drown in water an inch deep without sufficient escape routes.

  • @sea78x
    @sea78x Před 2 lety +2

    I think you’ve done the background company a huge disservice! What you’ve created looks so unnatural and flat…. Cool music tho

    • @Jaywil07
      @Jaywil07  Před 2 lety

      flat? hahahaha clearly you have not views the background. It is designed by them to be slightly deep in certain area. But I appreciate your reference to natural not being flat.......

    • @sea78x
      @sea78x Před 2 lety +1

      Jay Wilson - I wasn’t talking about the background, the background is ace… until YOU destroyed it and made an unnatural looking landscape…. Before attempting to tell us all how “great you are”! Go check out Tanner@Serpa design and Troy Goldberg - see what they’ve achieved…. They’re great

  • @jamesmorss9940

    • @jamesmorss9940
      @jamesmorss9940 Před 8 měsíci

      You know dart frogs drown right? They cant actually swim.

    • @jamesmorss9940
      @jamesmorss9940 Před 8 měsíci

      Cichlids are highly territorial and aggressive and are rarely kept in community tanks with other fish, but you're going to throw them in with another species? ok...

    • @jamesmorss9940
      @jamesmorss9940 Před 8 měsíci

      I keep guppies with Tribs, only reason they last is the guppies breed faster than the Tribs will consume them. Could keep African reed frogs in there, i guess... Darts would drown or get bullied by the tribs because they're both terrestrial. Aborial frogs and terrestrial lizards perhaps... but then how are you going to target feed effectively in such a large enclosure. This is obviously an enclosure for YOU and not your animals. Thats BAD HUSBANDRY dude, i dont care how many people say they've done it. It's inconsiderate
