Default Cheap viv supplies. Want??

Hey guys,,

Usually popular brands such as 'ExoTerra, Zoo-Med, Zilla, T-Rex etc etc sell their plastic plants and hides etc expensive and more than like 5-10 'UK' Pounds, and i have figured out that i can make these quality supplies for like 2 pounds each, And thats how:

1- Buy a normal clay worth 99p each (price depending in many things).
2- Buy cheap plastic plants (the ones for home-decorations).
Easly make a clay ball or whateva shape you like and poke the plastic plant stem into the clay, Leave it to dry well for 2 days or use baking/freezing for faster choice.
You can make 'hides' with the same things, just use your creative skills and make diff shaped hides just as you like small or big again leave it to dry well (2 days) or use baking/freezing for faster choice.

How i make sure it dries well solid??
Just feel it and try squeezing it to know that it became solid from the inside.

What about the smell??
when it dries well solid, the smell will vanish so always makesure it has no smell before adding it to your viv/rub.

NOTE: THIS CAN BE USED TO MAKE ARID 'LAND HIDES/PLANTS ONLY' AND NOT USED WITH WATER.

CAN BE USED TO MOIST RAINFOREST VIVS AFTER COATING IT WITH A GOOD WATERPROOF GLUE/PAINT.

Cheers
