That post shows the framework on the back wall for the cork work I did (there are a lot more plants in there now, so the bottom of the viv is quite dark). Most of my builds use that kind of approach for tincs now, and in the case of the azureus, they spend nearly all their time on the top shelf. They come down to drop tads in the pool, but they seem to prefer the upper rear ledge under that cork round. You can always find them out and about. The same goes for the True Sips and Robertus. I find the smaller tinc morphs to be more reclusive, with the Bakhuis being the most skittish (for me). The Bakhuis are also tucked away in a low traffic area in my kids room, so those frogs don't see a lot of foot traffic which likely makes them more sensitive to people walking in the room.

It always amazes me to see my female Robertus haul herself straight up the front door of her 24" tall exo to track down a fly. They are adept albeit cumbersome climbers, but I think tincs appreciate the height. They all seem to perch high for a good view of what is going on in the viv, and outside it. I really like the 18x18x24 footprint for two to three adult tincs. With the right hardscaping they make for a nice display. Just get a second 18x18x24 for your Iquitos
