Leopard gecko habitat, or tarantula, tree frog, snake, vietnamese centipede etc.

[sagekit123]

Would you be able to make the tree waterproof so you can semi-submerge it for pets like newts?

[LizardLandscapes]

@sagekit123 yes, just cover the section (to be put in water) with aquarium grade silicone sealent.

[57lavasurfer]

im gonna make a tree frog habait and is a 25 gallon enough?

[LizardLandscapes]

@57lavasurfer it should be.

[TheWeldingWizard]

Verry nice project amazing artwormanship..is it ok for ball pythons sheeding??

[LizardLandscapes]

@TheWeldingWizard should be.

[Ebrech]

Now I wish I had save all those foam from the computer boxes... lol

[ImClueless627]

do you sell the stuff you make cause i would love to buy one just like this and also can you submerge them in water like if i want to put it in a turtle tank

[LizardLandscapes]

@ImClueless627 at this time I do not sell them. You can submerge this if you cover it in a layer of aquarium grade silicone sealant. Check out the waterfall videos I've done.

[spartangecko1]

I subbed you can you sub me back

[ThePumpkinthecat]

Will this work for a crested gecko?

[arsenaly9]

but will it be still 'scratchy' (i hope i said it right xD my english isnt that good sry) but u know if my snake wanna shed she still can right?

[arsenaly9]

ur so good man..

1 question, why do u have to seal eth? i mean this thing wont be touched by water at all so..? i just dont know why the sealing thing for...

[LizardLandscapes]

@arsenaly9 you want to seal it because it's much easier to clean their poop. You also want to seal it to make sure it is nontoxic.

[Falcon7841]

Holy Cow man can you teach me!!!!!!!!!!:)

[krirre]

you are really talented in seeing how it could look! have you thought of selling ?

[DISTR1CT]

watching your other videos I was thinking, wow a tree with roots should be impossible xD

[NekoKittyAnzu]

is any grout ok, or is there specific one that i should use

[LizardLandscapes]

@NekoKittyAnzu I use non sanded grout, but any grout should do.

[NekoKittyAnzu]

@LizardLandscapes Cool Ty :D

[mech3434]

wow

[DrumYou2Death]

What type of leopard geckos are they and how much are they?

[nat50866]

what do you use to colour the grout?

[LizardLandscapes]

@nat50866 either cement color or acrylic paint.

[MaltiLuca123456]

That is foul good and but it is brimfull hard.

Yes or No request for a reply .

By sincere regards MaltiLuca123456

[geodes123]

Where do you buy the styrofoam for all of your projects

[LizardLandscapes]

@geodes123 Home Depot.

[Kpilot786457]

wow my lizard's not nearly that active dang!

[megalizardfreak]

how much does this cost to make please leave answer back on myn home page

[NuDrop]

@megalizardfreak it really isn't that expensive. Cheaper to make than buy, it is just time consuming..

[iwatch0608]

wow that thing seems hard to do..

[emmalou2988]

hello i was wondering if it would be ok to make something simliar to this for my bearded dragon? thanks

[LizardLandscapes]

@emmalou2988 Sure.

[emmalou2988]

@LizardLandscapes Thanks, your work is amazing by the way!

[xpatox7]

can a panther Gecko eat a Centipede? house hold Centipede that is

[LizardLandscapes]

@xpatox7 Not sure on that one.

[xpatox7]

@LizardLandscapes kk thx anyways :l

[eagermcbeaver1]

i make my custom hides out of legos, i have a castle with a window and stairs leading up the top where theres a hallowed half log..it has a sniper :D but i do wanna start doing stuff like this

[whokabowie]

ok thnx ur the first person to actually tell me why to seal it

[whokabowie]

why? what would happen if u didnt?

[LizardLandscapes]

@whokabowie It could break down over time and release toxic chemicals. It's also waaaay easier to clean if it's sealed.

[whokabowie]

do you have to use a sealant?

[LizardLandscapes]

@whokabowie Yes.

[iamcloudff3]

ur a beast, in a good way :D

[SuperLEO130]

hey im new to this can i use grit instead of grout plz help me i dont wana hert my gecko

[LizardLandscapes]

You can use pretty much anything, grout is usually the easiest to work with. As a last stage you seal everything up with a non-toxic sealer.

[SuperLEO130]

@LizardLandscapes so i can seal with an acrylic sealer right and thnks for the help

im geting started right now

[LizardLandscapes]

Some acrylic sealers might not all be non-toxic (different additives), so make sure the product makes a point of saying it's non-toxic.

[SuperLEO130]

@LizardLandscapes so could i use glue and water because glue is a sealer and its not toxic

[LizardLandscapes]

I use Mod Podge all surface sealant which is also a glue. If you're going to submerge a structure in water you'll need to use aquarium silicone or research marine epoxy.

[SuperLEO130]

@LizardLandscapes thanks it helped a lot and i wanted to tell u that your gecko is really pretty

[ParkourDean]

Dean likes this lol

[Goop023]

can you wipe lizard poo off of it without harming the tree ?

[LizardLandscapes]

Yes, I use a combination mixture half water half white vinegar -and sometimes an old toothbrush.

[20Pops09]

Love the tree. imma try to do some thing similar but with a hollow tree stump and roots. ill send in a video response when i do it.

[ITSTHETINGLE]

amazing color and that first leo what is it ?

[LizardLandscapes]

It's a tabby Leo

[reptilesforlife]

i think a bell albino

[novsev]

Fantastic work! What glue do you use to fuse the styrofoam together?

Cheers,

Phil and Deb 818

[LizardLandscapes]

I have been using Loctite power grab, it's similar to liquid nails.

[MikeyStaakz]

Great Video! I built a rock wall for my tree frogs using your method. It worked great. However, I am having extreme difficulty finding a non toxic acrylic sealant thin enough to spray on. Where did you find yours and whats the name brand?

Thanks for the inspiration!

[LizardLandscapes]

It's called "Shields All". There's a link in my FAQ page on my site.

[boatman2cool]

can you use sanded grout

[LizardLandscapes]

You can, it's just not as easy to work with as non-sanded grout is.

[pain10000]

would theese possibly work for hamsters

[Quidditch93]

awesome.

[rhinogek]

can you use hot glue?

[LizardLandscapes]

You can use any glue.

[daRobanater7217]

Where do you buy the grout

[LizardLandscapes]

Home Depot

[jay1992b]

hey, do you sell your products? because i would be interested in buying one instead of making one

[LizardLandscapes]

Unfortunately they're just too time consuming to sell at reasonable prices.

[fredfredburger5555]

could i put it in an aquatic newt's tank? if so how would i get it to sink?

[LizardLandscapes]

If you're trying to submerge it in water you'll need to use a waterproof sealant like aquarium grade silicone. Then use aquarium weights to hold it down.

[fredfredburger5555]

okay thanks!

[Honeybabymarie]

Hi im thinking about purchasing a lizard, either a bearded dragon or so type of gecko. I have watched all your videos and this one is by far my favorite. So i have a couple questions for you.

-First how much do supplies cost?

-Where would i buy all of the supplies?

-Is it better to buy it or make it?

Please get back to me. I love your projects. They are so creative!

[LizardLandscapes]

Supplies will run you about $25-$45. My website has a list of the supplies, where to buy them depends on your area. If you're like me you'll end up spending a ridiculous amount of time on a project like this, which might mean it would be worth it to just buy it. If you're going to make the tree make sure you get an expert climbing lizard -like a gecko.

[Honeybabymarie]

I was going through a box at my house and discovered a box with some styrofoam in it and purchased the grout at my local A.C.More, It only cost me 7 dollars. I am currently making a rock. I also found some styrofoam coolers at Dollar Tree that i can use to make a tree. Im not as talented as you, but Im going to try.

[Honeybabymarie]

Oh yeah...I am going to get a leopard gecko.

[BLIX5445]

Hey what is the brand and and color of the cement coloring you used?

[LizardLandscapes]

Quikrete brown

[LethalMX]

do you mind if i make things like that or would you clicefy that as copy right?

[LizardLandscapes]

Go ahead and create, all i ask is that People send me a pic to post on my website.

[LethalMX]

ok ill send you a picture of it once i have grouted it and painted it.

[billibob68]

u have painting skills!

[lizardlover12]

i wanna try that!

[Thelandscapes]

it's amazing work.

[dinomanj]

nice bell albino and carrot tail but dude u should reall sell those in pieces were all u got to do is glue the pieces to getther if u cant male them whole

[GlerpHerp]

that looks awsome

[GlerpHerp]

I'm just testing if i can comment

[laurence485]

hi,

how long are you waiting before applying each layer of grout?

or are you just waiting until each layer dries completely before adding the next?

Thanks

[LizardLandscapes]

Usually I let each layer dry overnight. But, I think you're good if you let it dry for at least five hours. This all depends on how thick the layer is.

[disturbedrocker1]

this is cool ya if you could make some more jungle/forest style vid that would be cool

[kheko131993]

woah men youre pretty good with this my gecko will love his brand new fake tree

[Hellothasauras]

I thinking of getting a Leo and this design looks quality. You should do some more jungle styled projects, like a rope bridge or something.

[stupidself00]

nice gecko!!!!

[showtimeoooo]

can I bye this

[BLIX5445]

coolest freaking thing ever bro!

[1ReptileBreeder1]

that is amazing

[Lizarrdo]

To bad my artistic skills are limited. The first time I did this, my building collapsed!

[CountGecko]

Awesome! I love your work, I was wondering if you were going to do logs as your next project this is sweet! I want to do some of these but sadly I can't find any flat pieces of Styrofoam I have a 40 gal tank and some leopards waiting for it.

[TravI200]

You can find flat styrofoam at Joannes Fabrics.

[worldindustrysk8er99]

u have two good looking leos my man

[leosforlife]

how many hours did this take?

[LizardLandscapes]

Roughly 25hrs.

[leosforlife]

damn u should be extremely proud of your work

[shuggy67]

wow that is awesome i so want one lmao i always post on your videos this ... keep up the good work and cant wait to see the next one

[joseydiann]

So you did say you were sending that one to me right? LOL I check the mail and it's still not there, I really do wish mine turned out that nice...

[Ibsonlovesyou]

That's insane, and awesome, i want to buy 1 from you as i know I'm not capable to do it myself.... is that possible?

[LizardLandscapes]

Unfortunately they're just a little too time-consuming to be able to sell at a reasonable price.

I will entertain "offers I can't refuse" though.

[Studman2011]

i have a chinese water dragon can i make one of these for him?

[LizardLandscapes]

Yes, you might need to scale it up though. Your water dragon cage would have to be fairly big.

[Studman2011]

ya we just made a cage for her n him that is 6 ft high 3.5 ft deep and 5 ft wide

pretty big with alot of empty space just want to make somethin to cover it all up. thanks

[rsTHEKINGHHHrs]

U guys, I got a bearded dragon, wut u guys suggest for next lizard?

[Sintwar]

Great stuff man... Can't wait til I move into my new place with a garage in a few months so I can try some of this out. :)

[shanethebarroomhero]

as always ur a genius. keep em comming!

[leosforlife]

damn that was cool how many reptiles do u have

[SLE335]

Another project I can't wait to try out! You have the BEST ideas. Thanks for posting this great video!!

[chappieskater]

u shud go pro and make and seell stuff

[leosforlife]

he said b4 that it takes way to long to just make 1..so it would be to hard to create them in mass..... i bet though

[tiger69big]

Great idea! Will definitely give it a try.

[civicgrl88]

great work!!

[ilovemyboaconstricto]

Can you mist the shields all on it and get the same effect?

[LizardLandscapes]

The consistency it comes in is thin enough to work it's way through a spray bottle.

So it doesn't need to be watered down.

[ilovemyboaconstricto]

Wait what does that mean?

lol

[HANKEYMAN45]

ive got loads of adhesives but i, just wondering dose it matter if it says that it melts polystirene

[LizardLandscapes]

You don't want it to melt polystyrene. I've used

Mod Podge, liquid nails, and loctite. Elmers would probably even work. Normals glues(like Mod podge) just take longer to hold.

[HANKEYMAN45]

i cant find anything like 'liquid nails' that dosen't melt polystirene! dose that matter?

[LizardLandscapes]

I've been using "Power Grab" by Loctite. Works great.

[daharker]

how long does that take u? all ur vids r good btw =]

[LizardLandscapes]

These take too long. Roughly 18 to 28hrs. The main factor is having to allow for "drying" of

certain sections.

[joshua12buchwald]

unbelievable! best idea ever! U rock..keep up the vids! 9:34 well spent!

[daharker]

nice!!

[reptilefan100]

awsome u rock man!

[frostyinrehab11]

thx dude ive been waiting so long

[leosforlife]

awesome!!! u must spend hour on building these things

[Lizarrdo]

That was awesome!
