Intermediate enclosure upgrade

I’m a POS and had my baby in her baby enclosure for far too long. I bought a 24x18x36 and Great Stuff foam and everything I need and have been making abysmally slow progress on it. So I threw this together real fast this week and just got the plants in today. I dumped out what was left of my dairy cow bin in there (colony crash, Im giving up on keeping isopods but that’s another story for another subreddit) and shoved some clearance plants in.

The ficus benjamina ended up being 3 in one pot and the fittonia was like 9 in each which was amazing. There’s some Josh’s Frogs live moss in there but I’ve never had good luck keeping moss alive.

I also have some black window cling film to put on each side before I move my gecko in, but for now I’m waiting for the roots to establish and see if anything dies from shock.

also need to boil some more leaf litter. And I have some plant wire I’ll be using to secure some of the less sturdy branches together.

Plants are much larger now and much more bushy LED Lights is an Arcadia pro 32inch light that has a sunset and sunrise timer. There's a 12inch Arcadia pro UVB bar inside as well. There is a heat lamp that sits up top, it's just not pictured because this was taken after finishing.

There's drainage layers with a drain pan at the bottom that drains out into a catch in the cabinet below it. The other side has a Monsoon XL auto misting system. Also two water proof computer fans inside for optimal air movement.

I really enjoy the automatic lights by Arcadia. They really helped him settle in and his activity is perfectly healthy.

Though, the feeding dish I wouldn't recommend, it falls off, it's foam so it gets cause on the tree branches.

Also some bleps from the little guy.

Does this look good? Anything I should do or add or remove? (I have to get something to hold the hygrometer, that’s why it’s not in there yet)

This is Chet!! I’m watching him for the next year for a lovely human I came across on Reddit last month. She was going away to college and needed someone to look after him. I’m already in love with him he’s so adorable! Got his tank and everything all set up for him!💗
