My Tiger Salamander Terrarium

[clinton]

Hey all, I'm new to the site, so I thought I would post some pics of my Tigers and their tank. I'll have to take updated pics, but here are some older pics of my Tigers:

My two Eastern Tiger Salamanders (Ambystoma Tigrinum)named "Laguna & Lily":

My two Grey Tiger Salamanders (Ambystoma Mavortium Diaboli)named "Odin & Orion":

My Blotched Tiger Salamander (Ambystoma Mavortium Melanostictum)named "Dragoon":

My Tigers terrarium:

I've just finished revamping the lid to hold in more moisture and vent air better. I used Acrylic sheets and Aluminum Mesh Screen:

At this time I'm using a larger tub for a water hole, and I have a misting system ordered. I'm going to look at a UV light soon and then get live plants (right now I use fake plants). I use Forrest bedding for a substrate (coconut fibre)

I'll have to take some new pics of everything soon, but considering I have so many Leopard geckos (Eublepharis macularius)(22 adults and over 50 hatchlings at the moment) plus a male Tokay gecko (Gekko gecko) and my 5 Tigers and my Wood frog, might take me a bit LOL

Oh yea, Laguna is 10.75", Lily is 10", Odin is 9", Orion is 9.5", and Dragoon is 9". Dragoon is still growing alot tho, I got him not atoo long ago. I feed them a main diet of calcium dusted crickets, with occasional earth or trout worms. I also give some waxworms as treats here and there.

Laguna is 79 grams, Lily is 104 grams, Odin is 83 grams, Orion is 91 grams, and Dragoon is 68 grams.

Hi Clinton,

Nice tanks! That looks like a wonderful project to make.

One note--I just want to check with you that make these are really your tanks and your pictures, as the link is livingunderworld (aka Jessica Miller's site). We try to make sure that intellectual (and this includes photographs) property is respected here.

Yea I like her website, it's about the only one I use for a photo bucket. Plus I like to use her site for info also on my Tigers

Maybe one days I will have a try at breeding them LOL

Just so you know for sure, here's my gallery on the site: http://www.livingunderworld.org/photos/showgallery.php?ppuser=25&cat=500
I use it alot for all my pics, when I go for my holidays I often see tons of Wood Frogs too LOL
Although I love my Tigers, my real interests lie with my Leopard geckos. Here's a pic of my newest additions

Oh Just about forgot, I've ordered in a misting system from www.cloudtops.com
I ordered a Rainmaker 1 system, basically for my Tiger Salamanders and my Tokay gecko (plus I can use it for just about any other tanks I setup as it can run 50+ misting nozzles

) I'll post pics of it all setup once I get it in.
