I need help here. So after 3 days of straight working on this vivarium, today I noticed foam leakage from the back bottom edge of the terrarium. To prevent damage to the terrarium from expanding foam I carved until I reached the uncured edge so it could finish curing without potentially busting my terrarium and money just going down the drain.
How can I finish the bottom edge without ruining the rest of the work? I am planning on having a drainage layer since this is for a rainforest type critter.

I would just rip out the bottom of the foam and call it a day. Cover with drainage layer. Nobody will know 🙂
No need to finish it all the way to the bottom if you do a drainage layer/false bottom. I’d just excavate the rest of the foam there and leave it. as is, maybe add some more silicone & peat to the edge.
