Insect Direct Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Finally made some time and have almost completed the new digs. (beats old fishtanks) Unit made from MDF, polyurethaned, glass doors etc, very simple but yea im stoked its almost complete. Put a young males in today, he took to his reflection (and the fumes from polyurethane?) Then he noticed he could see his brother across in another setup :shock: He ran up and down so i opened the door and he jumped onto my arm and started head bobbin lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanmin4304 Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Looks great. It takes a bit of work to build them so I reckon you will be pleased it is completed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insect Direct Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Thanks for the positive comments Looks great. It takes a bit of work to build them so I reckon you will be pleased it is completed. Definitely, started with a hiss and roar. Me and a mate put it together and had the first coat of poly on in 5 hours. The poly, doors and lights have been a bit more time consuming and fiddly but yea im happy shes so close to been done. Hopefully get the last tracks today (on order) so the rest of the glass can go in then just wait for polyurethane to cure properly and yea mission complete.

Sweetysmum Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hi Mincie, what are you using for substrate. Or is that the floors that i see in the photo. Awesome set up. How many beardies do you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insect Direct Posted August 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Hi there, its just artificial grass/astro turf from bunnings, warehouse etc. Hose it out every coulpe of weeks or so and vacuum (sp?) out dried salad and other chuckny bits every other day. (pays to have a seperae vacuum from the house one as it can get smelly) melt edges of the artificial grass to stop it fraying etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
