Default Uroplatus pietschmanni og Uroplatus phantasticus setups.

Hey

Finally I got the vivs done for the gecko's. I think they turned out okay.
They mesure 40x40x60cm., there is used T5 amature, 6500 kelvin.
It will look alot better, when the plants start to fill in. Its my first time useing the big leafs on the substrate, but they look nice, make a natural drinking site (after mistning), and the geckos (female phantasticus) is vel camuflaged when checking the place out

0.0.1 Uroplatus pietschmanni:



1,1 Uroplatus phantasticus:

Those look great. You're really going to have to look for those pietschmanni amongst all of that cork! They should love it. I have a question ... do you construct those glass vivariums yourself?

Thanks everyone, im glad that im not just the only one that finds it ok

Doug - No unfortunetly I don't there is a guy here in Denmark who does, they work nice and are cheap aswell. The ventalation net, is fine masked that fruitflies cant get trough.
Yeah usually I could find him in his qurantine setup, but today I was almost freaking out because I couldent see him, but have spotted him know actually he is on the first photo.(a small part of him).

Bruce - Thanks, it means alot when some of you hardcore keepers say it looks good Im sure the gecko does, he as many kind of branch thickness and angle to place himself during the as in light (top branch to "bask"), or behind the big horisontal piece for shade. I got the cork branches In Hamm. Come over some time, we can have an uroplatus talk


Silas - I actually got some inspiration from your setup that you shared on FB, but would love to see some more pictures of it aswell as the inhabits(not sure it the rigtht word meant geckos).

Very nice looking terrariums. What you think about more thin branches for U.phantasticus?
