A little update kids!
No construction, heck, not even sure I'll do it. But I have finalized some ideas.
they'll be 2 large pools. 1 salt water and one fresh water. both filtered. a few moss pits, 3 sides will have a foam (the great stuff...stuff) wall, they'll be gap between the tank wall and the foam, I can place wires filters etc. behind the foam walls. A fresh water Water fall at the back, with 2 pools at the back, the water draining into the back will go into a filter, poor into a second pool where the pump is, leading a clean, fresh water into the water fall. (the 2 pools will be behind the foam wall of course).plenty of large bowls covered in the foam to make shell shops, some on the ground, some on the walls, maybe a few in a cave. Still thinking about a brackish bubbler in the middle. hurm, then I'm going to have to figure out a way to get wires to the walls without the crabs having a way to get it. maybe a foam ground, just a small layer, put the wire on the ground, then the foam layer on top (removable, not permanent). Another great idea of mine is to use a small, rimless aquarium for the pools (salt and fresh). So I can take the thing out, clean it and fix it etc.
Good ideas or what?

My frame has built-in perches, shelves covering with fleece, a feeding shelf, and places to attach Stealth Wheels. Here it's pictured with the "front door" unzipped open.
To me, they are the very coolest, most perfect things in the universe.
your gliders are adorable. My Friend had two at one point in time but moved away and had to sell them. oddly it makes me miss my ferrets.
