hey, well i new here. so today i started my 75g l.williams viv. i plan on having a small colony of 1:4. do to williams being 80$ a pop i plan to buy 2 at a time, since i have a low budget.also since i'll have a large water section plan to keep a dwaft puffer as they stay small, hungry lil buggers and active. i also plan to keep Blue Azureus dart frog since there larger tend to stay low and have a nice color. i know mixing speces is not advised, but i have kept all three before exept william but i have kept yellow head cousin of theres. conditions are almost exactly the same. as i know puffers are mess filrtion will be mesh for mech filtration and plastic scubbies for bio filtration.
For the backround i choose great stuff as i have used before for dart frogs cresties and other lizards. it will be covered with exo-terro forest moss. i have a false bottom. for drainage i use those clay balls. i have a water fall that flows into to river which then flow into the larger water section. the waer fall pump is a quite one pump on sure of what size but it pretty good flow. subtrate will be DIY mixture. plan on using leaves also for food cver and frog cover. for plants bromiladids, mosses, ferns, and others. what do you think of using carinovers plant to keep bugs in check well the ones that mange to settle in anyway.
lighting will be a 4bulb t-5 fixture. plan on using 2-10.0 zilla,1-5000k,1-6500k. hating will be done by ethire a 25 or 50 watt heat lamp,a nd a small 50 watt aqurium heater.
