New viv for my corn

[Pinky]

Poor Simon was beginning to look cramped in his 10gal. starter tank. So when a co-worker offered me his old 35gal. fish tank I jumped at it.All I had to do was clean it.....




after some elbow grease and a few curse words here it is...





I think he'll enjoy!!

[Sid]

Looks really good, Marc and I like the top you fixed.

[Pinky]

Thank you very much Sid. That top was the cause of much of my cursing.I had purchased a Zilla top, which I was assured would fit...not even close!!!!

[jitami]

Very nicely done! Looks like Simon is enjoying it, too

[Pinky]

Thanks Tami, I think he does!

[kurtnagel]

Ha!

I love how Sid is obviously exploring for any potential escape routes around the top!

That's still a concern of mine..Although it's a VERY tight fitting lid. I know that as Simon gets to adult size, he could potetially lift it.So i'm planning to make 2 side latcheds of some kind.Still stuck on that design though!!!

Simon is very pretty. I would like to get one of those in the near future.

Looks good man, nice work cleaning it up and nice top.. I'm gonna have to try to make one of them.

Well done!
Very nice looking lid. Definitely want to add those latches. I still use good old fashion bricks myself. Fastest and most secure lid and "latch" combo I have used yet.

If that is regular window screen, just one thing to remember, it will work fine for the snake, but make sure you dont have a house cat or something that can get at it. I've known a few people have housepets get through their screen lids either by sitting on it or by wanting at the reptile.


I have been busy making 10 new lids myself.
