looks amazing!
What material did you use to fill up the back ground and keep the stones and the logg in place?

[HerpInvert]

this whole thread is about using HabaCrete vivarium mortar; instructions for using HabaCrete to mount real wood to enclosures. the stones are fake. made with HabaCrete in what says is a hard to do process but i find it as easy as making a sandwich. HabaCrete just so you know is a very low pH compared to lime based products like cement and grout, dries fast, is non-toxic once dry and in one day you can introduce your fauna to the exhibit with out hesitation. It requires no washing or soaking with vinegar like folks have to do with cement based products.
