This is the biggest bioactive vivarium build I have ever done. It was built to be the home of my growing Brazilian Rainbow Boa and will incorporate a waterfall, climbing branches, and an island over the water feature. This is the first half of this huge undertaking and includes prep, background build, and hardscape, watch my decent into madness as I try to finish the entire build in the ONE WEEK I have off from work.
PART 2!!
• 270 Gallon Boa Paludar...
