Haven't been on much, as I haven't had too much fish stuff going on in life recently.
Anyway, I sort of ended up with an unplanned terrarium/vivarium setup in my apartment and I'm deciding what to put in it. It's 36x18x36 (LxWxH) glass setup, with a lot of cool custom fake rock in the background, and I've set it up so it will have a little waterfall and a smallish water feature taking up about 1/4 of the bottom, connected to a 10g tank sump. Will probably put fancy shrimp in the water.
Planning on lighting and planting it heavily, but not sure what kind of fauna to put in.
Originally I was going to go with dart (or similar) frogs, but I think it gets too warm in my apartment for most species, and I don't want to keep fruit fly colonies.
So here are the requirements:
-Can tolerate temperatures into the mid 80s (or likes it warmer than that, generally).
-Doesn't require fruit flies or airborne prey (otherwise I'd try an orchid mantis).
-Doesn't make much noise (if any) at night. During the day is OK.
-Is OK with live plants and bioreactive substrate
I know there are a variety of gekkos I could keep, but the large ones tend to be mean and if I'm gonna put up with something hissing at me, it needs to be super exotic.
Open to any and all suggestions, though. Thanks, y'all!
