Second floor compilation
Just post your pictures of your second floors, weather it's just a small hammock or a literal second floor! Coolest picture is the coolest!

Re: Second floor compilation
Here's my tank in the making, I've added the shelf for the shell shop. I'll also be adding a shelf on the right side for food dishes

Re: Second floor compilation
My second level is simple, and I plan on making a new one,but the crabbies love it. Btw the red basket actually isn't in my tank I was seeing if it fit but then it didn't.

its egg crate light diffuser. It's in the lumber/insulation section at home depot. A 4 feet by 3 feet sheet is about $13.Cococrabgirl! wrote:What is the material called that you used to make your awesome climbing walls and second level?

Re: Second floor compilation
It breaks easily. I used the handle of a screwdriver, my boyfriend used the the flat edge of a heavy knife. It just takes a hard whack at it and it breaks. But I highly recommend doing it outside! Pieces fly everywhere and they're very small. Stepping on them feels like stomping on a Lego! It's a huge mess lolCococrabgirl! wrote:Thank you! I am definitely going to get some!

Thank you! And thank you very much on the heads up on it breaking. If it got stuck in my mom's foot it would cause serious damage. So thank you!ciaraalston wrote:It breaks easily.

Re: Second floor compilation
Do u have a UTH on the back of your tat & if so does the egg crate affect heating? I love the idea but I'm struggling to maintain heat already. I've decided I'm going to have to add another UTH I'm just afraid it will be to hot then.

Re: Second floor compilation
I personally haven't had any issues with heating and the egg crate. I used to have a cocofiber mat across my tank and I struggled to keep the temp up. Since I set this tank up, the temp has stayed between 79 and 85 on average. Usually about 82 or 83FairyDefender wrote:Do u have a UTH on the back of your tat & if so does the egg crate affect heating? I love the idea but I'm struggling to maintain heat already.

Re: Second floor compilation
OIC. I was thinking about the cocofiber over the egg crate. That would probably cause heating issues like that. Thanks for the reply

Here's mine! I built the platforms and bridge out of popsicle sticks, bamboo shoots and twine.
