*cough*photoforum*cough* lol
Here's mine. It's come a LONG way since day 1 (paper towels as substrate, sour cream containers for hides, etc). I'm going to buy a nice water bowl eventaully, but for now, this will do. The two pieces of wood on the left are cut lengthwise and hollowed out for hides, and there is another hide under the plant. Also the thermometer I was laying over the UTH in this pic, but it's usually leaning against the wood under the lamp. I'm going to buy a proper digital one soon. The heat light is off and that long thing on top is the aquarium light... MUCH easier for picture taking quality (heat bulb is red).
And here's Max's buddy "frog".
He was looking at the camera in this last one (I thought he was going to crawl down the front of the mopani and into the hide), but turned at the last minute... Camera shy. lol
PS. I'm having a larger, probably 58x18x24 tank made for when he's full grown (or for my ball)... any ideas for decor?

There was a similar thread like this done a couple of weeks ago, titled Viv's picture .
Everyone's Viv's look really nice.
Here are mine. I've added to the cages since the last time I posted them. I put in the green silk plants and the vine going from one end of each cage to the other. They love them! Ivan is always climbing around on his and he hangs out in the one plant on the warm side all the time. Storm I think climbs on her's too but I mostly catch her sitting half way in her hide and half on the one vine. I attached a picture of it. She looks cute!

I'd like to get a second plant for mine, but I want one in a pot (not loose and suctioned to the glass). I'm heading to the store soon to look for those Blair Witch looking twisty branch things, so I'm going to keep my eye out for a plant too.
I have the vine, but I really dislike the way mine looks. It's just awful. I get a snake and I'm suddenly obsessed with tank decor. "Free" paper towel roll excluded. lol
Does anyone have suggestions for glue? I was thinking if I can use glue the substrate to the paper towel roll to make it look nicer, but I'm unsure of what's safe.
