Sterilite Bin Viv Design.

Can you explain how you did it, Kyle? How do you access for daily maintenance? Where's the ventilation? Stuff like that. Let's hear a break down, Kyle.

Hacked the indented part of the sterilite bin off, replaced it with window screening (plastic,) cut a hole in one of the sides of the bin (for the top) and glued metal screening onto it, then put a rim of Popsicle sticks on the inside to keep the substrate from falling out when you take the lid off (which is now the front of the viv.) For ventilation... The giant gaping hole in the front that's covered in screen, and of course the wire on the top.
And backtracking a bit, for daily maintenance, you just take the lid off (yet again, the lid is the front of the viv.)

**I'll do a more thorough breakdown when I can afford another bin to make another enclosure, so I can take pics along the way.
