I don't know why but the name Tigerlily comes to mind.

Thanks for sharing the pictures....

Nice looking viv and cresty Mike! I, like cosmo, use ficus in my crestie habitats, they will actually curl up in the leaves, I don't even want to say how many times I've ripped an enclosure apart looking for them just to find them with a leaf literally raped around them like a toga. The driftwood might mold in the next couple of days, it has a lot of sugars in it, but give it some time and all the sugars will be used up and the wood will look better than ever. Your brom might need a little more light too, it will probably start to loose some of the red hue but stay alive, if you want it to keep the good color a little more light will do it, or you could just swap it out with a ficus

Thanks for the suggestion and compliments guys!! And no cosmo, Im not offended, Im open to suggestions.
I was thinking about a ficus benjamin, but how tall do they grow? The tank is about 18 inchs tall, give or take an inch or two depending on where you measure, because of the substrate, wouldnt it grow too tall? It wont be a problem with crickets drowning in the water, since I feed in a seperate tank. The moss, and live plants keep the humidity up, and I mist the tank 1 or 2 times a day usually, its only once gone up to 80%, but never any higher.
The grapevine did mold a few days ago. I scrapped it off, washed it very well, soaked it in a bleach/water solution, then washed the bleach off very well. I killed it all, I hope. Im worried about it coming back though, I dont want to have to do that process every week or two. How harmful is the mold? I heard the white mold isnt harmful, but the black is? The mold on it was white, and had some green over it too, do you think it would be harmful? She really likes the fake pothos plant I have in there, the only fake plant in there. I think Im going to put another one in, toward the middle, so theres more coverage there. She also likes the vine a lot, but I havent seen her on the right side too often, I might put another plant for more coverage over there too.
Ive also torn through the tank looking for her a few times lol, just to find her right in front of me, on the grapevine, or covered up inside the fake pothos plant. I also have 2 18 inch uvb lights so that runs the length of the tank, and hopefully will be enough to keep the bromeliad healthy, and not provide too much light for the moss, since they like more shady areas. The moss on the right side, near the brom. is actually looking like its dying. But the moss on the right looks great for some reason. They are two different types of moss though.

I think I might want another female. I'll look at the next show thats coming up july 9th, in NY. If I do decide to get another, I will build a larger tank, with more height than floor space, so I can put a taller plant in, like a ficus benjamin. I would also make a ledge for the water and food bowl, since like you said, they like it up higher. I really want to make another tank lol, whether I get another crestie or not lol.

Thanks again for the suggestions guys!!

neat looking enclosure.

Thats the beauty of ficus trees. They respond to pruning wonderfully. They are frequently used for indoor bonsai trees and they just get bushier and bushier!
If you keep it in a pot you can even wire the trunk and branches and bend and shape it to your liking. However the wire will need to come off 3-4 weeks later or it will cut into the bark.

Merlin,
What's Life Without A Little Magic!

I do as Merlin suggested and trim the little guy frequently. I don't have any inhabitants in mine yet but I'm trying to get the ficus pretty solid before I put some full size adults in there to tear it up. The ficus also looses very few leaves but still creates a nice leaf litter. Most ficus grow to be gigantic (some with a 900 meter parimeter), but are definately manageable in a viv. The brom should be allright under 40 watts, it might start to loose a little red. Although moss is from shady areas it tends to like a lot of light, what you have should be suffice. The moss accumulates a lot of light throughout the day by way of sunflicks.

As for the mold, I really wouldn't be concerened. You'll find yourself taking it out and scrubbing it once a week for a long time, if you let nature do its thing you'll notice that the mold will subside soon, you could put it into another enclosure with high humidity and let it run its course in there, I like the look of weathered grape vine more anyways. The bleach will eliminate the mold from the wood but not what the mold was eating up, so right when you reintroduce it the mold will attack it again, until there is no more food for the mold.

On a side note most New Caledonian ficus are in the Banyan subclass such as: Ficus microcarpa (chinese banyan), Ficus elastica (rubber tree), and Ficus prolixa (Pacific banyan), just to give you a few more choices.

Yeah, I have a rubber plant that I bought, and was going to put it in. But I read if the leaves, or something on it breaks, some stuff will come out of it and might irritate the skin, or something. But I like the leaves since theyre very sturdy.
Like I said, I really want to build another tank, so I can have much more height, and can get a tree in there, instead or flowers, and branches, so she can climb a lot more.

This link could help you give your current cage more height: http://www.herpcenter.com/showthread.php?t=7195
Its what I did for my crestie

Thanks mshrmheadcharge. I saw that before, and thought about doing it. I think I might want a little more floor space though than my tank would give me, but Im not sure yet.
