Construction of Fire belly Toad tank

This is the waterfall partiall constructed. There is extra silicone at the bottom for stability but you won't see that once its set up. The small opening at the top is where my tube will come out to supply the water. I used some paving stone and broke them up for this (and cut myself too, ugg.)
I have no idea if the silicone will hold, but time will tell. Its a learning experience.



Here is the second view, not sure if you can tell but the waterfall is nearly flat. It will be positioned in the corner and I will add some acitvated carbon (charcoal) inside a bag of pantyhose, then cover it all up with some filter floss or a foam sleeve topped with a few rocks to hold it all in place and keep the toads out of there. I decided to make my own because the price of the waterfall combined with the space it would use up was more than I wanted. I also plan to dress it up by sticking some plants in the crevases in the waterfall.

Here is the tank, I just assembled it last night so I haven't yet trimmed the excess silicone. I also haven't cleaned it yet, that is what I will do after dinner. And before anyone tells me the gravel is too small, thats the base layer, I have some larger gravel that will go on top. I'm not ready to try moss or coconut husks yet. In time I will get brave.
