Gargoyle gecko viv

[indyana]

New build! I got myself a retired breeder gecko last fall. She's ready to exit quarantine once I get some final fecal tests for parasites and Cryptosporidium done.


I bought a whole bunch of cool stuff for her background last year and used NEHerp's "heavy duty background" technique of attaching the pieces to a cork tile with screws and washers. The entire tile then was fixed to the back with aquarium silicone. It will cure for a bit, weighted, and then I'll touch up the joints.

Very cool! If you want to do a DIY article for Gecko Time with pictures, let me know.

Sure, will take me at least a few more weeks to complete the process. I'll be in touch...

That looks great! I like the cork bark coming out of the side such a cool hide!

Just don't post so much info on the forum and/or on Facebook that there's nothing new for the article.

In case you couldn't tell by the links Aliza has been posting, I ended up writing a series for Gecko Time on this viv and making some YouTube videos to give more exact construction details. I'm really happy with how it turned out, and I can't wait for it to grow in a bit so Minerva can move in!
