18" x 18" x 24" Shadowbox Viv w/ Frogs
#1
Wanted to post an updated pic of the viv, outside of my build thread. I had to make some major changes with a few of the plants. This is the first time I've ever grown plants in a viv, so it's been a lot of trial and error. But I'm glad I did make changes.. this looks so much better.

I pulled the button ferns.. they weren't doing well at all. Added a rabbit's foot fern, a few more broms (color!), a watermellon cryptanthus and a peperomia. Moved the creeping fig, tillandsias and goldfish plant. Everything has been doing great in this new layout. Once I was satisfied the plants were happy, I put my frogs in. I have a young trio of Cobolt tincs in here. :mrgreen: Anyway.. pics:

^^Springtails have been slow to eat up the mold. But I see less and less every day.
