About dang time I posted on this!\u00a0 A couple weeks ago I did, as part of a Seacoast Makers<\/a> outreach effort, a naturalistic vivarium how-to talk (otherwise known as a frog-and-pony show) at a favorite local plant place, Wentworth Greenhouses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Yr humble correspondent, gesticulating.<\/p>\n

It went quite well – decent turnout and no one fell asleep. I went through a viv build from start to finish: enclosures, substrate, backgrounds, lids and lighting, plants and, finally, animals. As you can see above, I brought a 16″ cube and (on top of the cube) a small carrier with a Phyllobates vittatus<\/em><\/a> inside. The Ranitomeya ventrimaculata<\/em> Iquitos Red that inhabit the cube are shy at the best of times; no way were they going to show themselves after a car ride.<\/p>\n

Good Tuftian<\/a> that I am, the slide show was just that – a bunch of photographs loosely related to whatever I was talking about. Luckily -strike that- By design I have accumulated quite a few build documentation pics and they were put to good use. I thought about posting the presentation here for download, but I think for the moment I’ll make it available on request: if you’d like a copy of the presentation in .odp\/Open Doc Presentation format, send along an email addy or share a Dropbox folder with me and I’ll get you a copy.\u00a0 A few of the slide images after the jump.<\/p>\n
