I am putting together my vivarium, and would like some ideas for the kaput and scheme, etc. This thread will not only serve as a reference for me an others, but as a thread for others to enjoy.

Please post pictures of your terrarium/vivarium below!

These are quite ugly! Just breeder vivs - nothing too showy.



^^^ P. Klemmeri

The Klemmeri used the Neoregelias to lay eggs in. Later we made them easier to remove for egg incubation.

Those are the only 2 in the photobucket.

I'm actually home sick today. Sorry for the delayed response. Hopefully I'll be back to work tomorrow. Regardless I'll get back to you tomorrow afternoon.

Money Tree is my favorite new plant for Phelsuma. It can hold some weight, doesn't burn easily under heat lamps and stays the same size you buy it for a long time.
Sanseveria - Mother In-laws tongue-Snake Plant is another good choice. They like heat.
I got some sort of dwarf Heliconia and have them in 2 Vivariums. The last egg laid actually was laid in an unrolling leaf.
All these plants like to be watered regularly but not sit in water except the Money Tree LOVES water.
I use bamboo too for all my Phelsuma. They like it. I try to cut it just the right length and use folder paper towels to hold it in place. And I'm sure you noticed the fake flowers in all my enclosures. They make the enclosures feel much brighter for a long time, and you don't have to worry about them dying

Good your at least getting somewhere with the build!
NO I'm not crazy. I'm normal. Everyone else is crazy by my standards!
Yeah I'm going to have to make room for babies soon. If I locate the missing baby and count all my animals I have:
8 snakes
1 monitor lizard
1 turtle
3 amphibians
20 geckos!

I will keep those species of plants in mind, and will soon pop on over to New England Herpoculture for more.

Thanks for the link about other terrariums, it was very helpful.

How do you keep track of all those pets?!

MeiK - no rush. Hope you feel better! I will be scouring your website in the next couple days so no problem.
