[QUOTE="Fraggler, post: 2027935, member: 117393"] Hey Guys, Time has come for Mangolito to get the space he deserves and will thrive in. His current glass enclosure is way too small, so i bought and put together an Osb 3 Vivarium. I'm never had an reptile enclosure that was not made from glass, plus the dimensions are much bigger so proper temp zones and stable humidity levels will be easier to established. I'd love your help and will aproach this thread step by step. The dimensions of the osb 3 enclosure i bought are: 150x60x80 (Width, deep, Height) or 4' 11"x1' 12"x2' 7" (please tell me if this is the correct way too call out these dimensions in the system you use in the U.s!?) i already put the Vivarium together so the next step is to waterproof it and close the gaps in the corners and angles What products would be best and in which order should they be applied?, im on the fence on using epoxy resin, waterbased polyurethane coat or maybe both and use wood filler where need to make the bottom flat enough. I also need the right silicon sealent to close of the corners and angles and wonder if it's best not to do just the bottom and several inches upward or all corners and 90°c angles. the products must be safe when fully cured ofc so i also wonder which types of additives commely found in these products i should avoid. As Mangolito is still recovering i do not play to make it bio acive even though i would love to, but to future prove it and having the option going bio active i like to ask advice in for both types of setup, I'm from the Netherlands so certain products commenly used in the U.S might be differ in composition. Let's spoil and make this enclosure a small and safe heaven for Mangolito, when this waterproofing and filling up gaps is done I'll move on with question about electronic placement, and the last phase will be substrate decoration placement like hides, elevations, basking and shade areas which will the most Fun part! I'll promise too take you along the ride with updates and pictures! Thanks in advance! Mangolito and Jeroen [ATTACH type="full"]82533[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]82534[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
