Loretta's Tank

Well I have gotten pictures of the tank I was working on and they arent of the greatest quality but just something to keep you occupied until I get better lighting

The background ins the styrofoam covered with mortar then painted the color "wet Coral" the plants are made up of spider grass and some vine and some of you may recognize the rock on the lower right side of the tank from her previous tank (i wanted to keep something in there that she would recognize. in the bottom left of the tank is a little cave and above that the spider grass. She camps up on top of the grass and right under it where it goes over her and it makes a little tunnel like thingy... Its kewl lol

On the right side above her old rock is that shelf like area and I put a little pet hut that I bought from the store there so she has a hide up there aswell.
Before I put the hut there I thought she might layout in the light but she never did but im guessing that it is because its kinda open and then she doesnt normally come out until evening though.

Newer pictures will be posted soon enough

supr, I got some mortar on the way in the mail. I was wondering if you could walk me through how you did your set up.

Im gonna use expanding foam, wire mesh, silicone, sand, and paint. I was just wondering if you had any pointers.
