Vivarium Build - Installing Custom Glass Top and Mist Nozzle on Exo-Terra

[@AnthonyLinsalata]

Thank you for this. I've been trying to figure out how to put the mist nozzle though screen. I love those gaskets you used.

Nice video!!!!!👍👍

[@nitraflo000]

Thanks again for this video, can I ask you what kind of misting system ur using ? :) And maybe your "good plan" for misting parts, elobows, Ts, ... thx

[@barakzaken8259]

Nice video you basically solved my decision of what to put as a lid to my vivarium the glass with the netting at the end looks great. I have one question about the lighting directly on the glass? Does it stand the heat of the bulb do you think this would work the same with a heat bulb?

[@NorthernFrogger]

The CFL's and LED's I use don't get that hot, so they are fine with the glass. I've never used a heat bulb over glass, but I don't think it would work very well. I would worry that the glass would get too hot, and at the same time, it would block a lot of heat coming from the bulb, making it very inefficient.

[@bryanphillips6098]

are you using plastic wrap in lieu of glass until you're able to get them cut?

[@simonbudd4526]

Hello again, sorry to be a pain, what photoperiods do you recommend for good plant growth and inhabitants?? Thanks again from the UK.

[@NorthernFrogger]

I use a 12 on/12 off light schedule

[@Soldier957]

I always hade huge troubles with the nozzles clogging up despite using battery water or RO water. Also, did you need to round the corners of the piece of glass since the plastic frame is rounded on the inside?

[@NorthernFrogger]

Hmmm I've never really had a problem with clogged nozzles 🤷‍♂️ The glass isn't rounded, I just get it cut a couple millimeters small so there is some wiggle room. It doesn't have to be a perfect fit as the silicone will fill in the gaps.

[@nitraflo000]

Do you put someting on/in the ventilation of the exoterra front doors to prevent the flies from passing through? thanks

[@skruzick]

Hi Josh, just wondering where you get your glass?

[@NorthernFrogger]

I have couple glass shops near me that will custom cut pieces

[@mrsloth_8820]

where do you get the glass for this? Ive thought about cutting a sheet myself but id like the smoothed edges

[@NorthernFrogger]

I called around to my local glass shops and found one that would cut custom pieces for me.

[@mrsloth_8820]

@@NorthernFrogger Thanks!

[@naturehdlover]

Nice!!

[@goneviral6037]

How many times a day do you mist? And how many seconds?

[@NorthernFrogger]

Right now I've got my mister running twice per day, thirty seconds each time

[@lisfrankrosario3132]

How do u fruit fly your exo- terra tanks if u do? Or do u just let your fruit flies escape.

[@NorthernFrogger]

Some fruit flies always seem to escape, but my most recent build video shows how I attempt to prevent fruit fly escapes!

[@brycedoucette6660]

Do you know the exact measurements of the piece of glass you use for the 12x12x18?

[@NorthernFrogger]

They are just Exo Terra or ZooMed tanks, not custom built

[@brycedoucette6660]

Northern Frogger yes I know that but I’m asking what the measurements for the piece of glass you get cut for the lid are....

[@NorthernFrogger]

@@brycedoucette6660 Oh of course haha. They are 11" x 10 1/4"

[@ALONEBIKER-w7q]

Lighting UV-A ? UV-B

[@NorthernFrogger]

Dart frogs don't need UV light. I just use daylight spectrum (5000-6500K) bulbs for the plants.
