I came across a very interesting video that shows viewers how to create a self contained River tank ecosystem that would be suitable for housing Newts, Frogs or even water loving lizards. I would definitely lean more towards frogs and newts after seeing this set up as it’s extremely aquatic.

The video was created with setting the tank up for classroom use in mind, but I’m sure anyone wanting to set up a home river tank would find this video and the listed supplies useful as well.

Here have a look and tell me what you think. I’m sure some of you crafty folk could make this on your own, but it appears that molded rock wall is something that can be purchased.
