OK the viv stack I built is ready for a arboreal extension. I've drawn up the plans and due to the size it needs to be detachable from the viv stack should I move. Anyway I'm giving it a few months to just decide the finer details etc but I have uploaded a quick sneak peek of what I'm thinking. The Cresties (plural, Harley will be getting a girlfriend, decided I want to breed these) will be in one of the arboreal vivariums and the other one is for my fantasy snake, I will have a set up ready for a Green Tree Python sitting ready and waiting for one to come up. Anyway this is the sketch, the bottom bit is already a reality so the top bit shouldn't be too much of a stretch.

It looks fab bob nice work, Blackskull I used the same aquarium sealant I used for the inside of the vivs, it works great

I bought it from a glazier. They were very good, all edges were rounded off and been 6mm toughened glass was remarkably cheap. Best thing to do is yell.com it and ring round.

Where do you get your glass, i got some really cheap from a conservatory place but it was not cut completely strait nor was the edges rounded off

never thought about a flexible super glue. i was thinking of using a contact glue but would be tricky using it on a small surface area and its a bugger to clean any over spill off

I used glue yeah, I used a non toxic flexible super glue. It worked really well and seems to keep the runners quiet and I think with the weight of the glass a small amount of flex is required. I will find the tub and let you know which one I used.

theres always room for more lol

quick question regarding the glass runners. i have seen them on ebay and wondered how they are fixed, are they just glued on?
