Just want to see what everyone's terrarium looks like just to get some ideas on a new setup. I'll start out the cycle.

This is a 48" x 18" @ 13" tall 50 gallon tank divided in half... The background and other 'rock work' is styrofoam sealed with tinted Drylok... The log is styrofoam covered with colored silicone... water pumps into the top right corner and runs down the 'rock' face, flows through the 'river'. The left side of the tank is drilled where the water falls down into a sump.

This is part of a larger set up that is not quite complete. When finished this tank will sit on top of a 75 gal terrarium/vivarium that has a resevior which acts as a sump for both tanks.
 
poison dart frogs...

Wow! Looking good. How many FBT's. I like the big log inbetween. I'm setting up a 125 with anoles that will be a terrarium essentially.

Why two sides though. Why not just 1 normal tank with darts. Nice setup. Do dart frogs like that much water?
 
Here are some pics of my old one (I had to break it down when I moved).

The tank is a cracked 56g tall (30L X 18W X 24H) that I picked up for really cheap from TFP. I sealed the crack with silicone and plexiglass and made background from GS foam covered in brown silicone and cocofiber with some african root wood embeded. The land portion has a false bottom of egg crate covered in weed barrier. Here it is after setting up the dryscape:

and here it is planted after growing in for about 6 months:
