Default 30 gallon vert

Here's a 30 gallon I had for some time and decided to turn it into a vert. It's 36' tall and about 16" wide. It's been set up for roughly a month now so it still has plenty of growing in to do. I'm also going to add some java moss around as I think it will fare well in some spots with the constant dripping (2 drip wall outputs). I also put the door on the right side so the front viewing pane is unobstructed with a fan installed on the screen vent. I have a small group of vittatus in there and I frequently find them all the way at the top (designed the background so that it would have plenty of ledges and nooks for the frogs to climb up).

This was my favorite vive to build (do to the height), and my first vert. I think I'm going to tackle a 55 or 75 gallon vert next!

Looks great!
Verts are def my favourite viv. Provides so many opportunities for the frogs and planting schemes.

Hey guys, it's been a while. Had a lot going on in my life lately, worst being the passing of my mother so I've been off the forums lately. I will get some updated pics of the vert up when I get a chance.

Here is the tank now. It needs a major trim and the glass to be cleaned but it has grown in a LOT. It's hard to judge the height of it but it's 3' tall.
