Hey everyone! Please excuse my tiredness, I have been recovering from the Flu these last few days. This video the Bio Dude gives an update on his Bioactive bearded dragon terrarium that has been up and running since May 1st 2017. Featuring the Dude's one of a kind Terra Sahara. This self cleaning and self maintaining ecosystem is doing great with no problems. Utilizing the Dude's proprietary bioshot, earwigs, springtails, darkling beetles and isopods this is a fully self cleaning and self maintaining ecosystem.
With his upgrade, I was very lucky to have the owner of reptilekages.com, Zach reach out to me and offer me a free 4' x 2' x 2' PVC enclosure in which I will be throughly testing and maintaining to see how well the bioactivity holds up, how well the terrarium holds up and of course how much Hercules' loves it!
I show how I set it up and as go over the pros and cons of the cage thus far. Some of the PROS- Space, Easy to build, manage and incorporate lighting. Looks very nice and can be stacked and changed to your specific husbandry needs. As you can see, I really did not use much AAA Spag due to the humidity retention with less airflow this type of caging offers. I immediately had to downgrade his Powersun UVB as it was getting way to hot, currently I am rocking a 50 watt spot which is providing a hotspot of 110 with a cool end of 81 during the day,
Not necessarily CONS, but things you must account for - Holds much more humidity, less misting, less water to start off with, smaller wattage bulbs being an enclosed environment and you are not able to see the substrate layer to ensure that your humidity levels throughout the substrate are healthy. So it takes a little more work on your end to ensure you are providing proper husbandry.
I will be sure to update this video and thread with how well the ecosystem has established, grown and of course gauge Hercules' interest overall. I am very happy to be able to test these cages and if everything works out, hopefully offer them on my website with FREE SHIPPING. It feels great to continually update and prove that my products not only work, but are THE BEST when it comes to reptile husbandry and expertise. Lately, there have been some "mimics" that will try to replicate, but NEVER will compare!

Can you do a set up for bearded dragon but go into detail on how to care for their habitat and dragon for beginners? Thank you.I love what you do its very inspiring!

Hey Josh, another great video. Thanks. I love my wild Bearded Dragons. I've been watching them from my kitchen window for 15 years. Last year I couldn't mow my back lawn for baby Bearded Dragons.

@ryanh.2842 5 лет назад

I love what you do, and the information you provide. That being said, I think you can do much better in terms of space for these beautiful reptiles. You’re so educated on ecology and husbandry, yet you limit their habitat! Bearded Dragons need much more vertical space despite the accepted dogma found online. Give them more dimensions and they will thrive! I’d like to see bigger setups. Your bio substrate reduces vertical dimensions quite substantially. Also, if you’re in Houston, (I’m in Austin) you don’t need night time heat lights unless your enclosure isn’t in a climate controlled space. Those wavelengths of light are disruptive to their diurnal sleep needs. These are just some suggestions. I believe we can all do better! You’ve taught me so much in regards to your expertise, and I wish you well! I’ll stay tuned.

@dishonest-corset4942 4 года назад

My bearded dragon is an adult and isn’t lazy. The only time my BD gets extremely lazy is when he is sick with parasites. He is very active and loves running around the house. I agree that the bigger the enclosure the better. I don’t have a bio active enclosure for my BD and wouldn’t have one because I prefer to be able to monitor their poo for signs of poor health, but I recently got a 6 by 3 foot by 3 foot enclosure for my BD, and once he recognises it as his territory he will be very active in it

@emilymelvin5771 5 лет назад

I understand it might be a lot to ask, but speaking of iguanas, I'd absolutely love to see your version of a bioactive setup for the green in particular. All the research I've done so far - not that many people are doing it, of course - has made me worry that herbivorous animals, especially the larger ones, would be extremely difficult to keep in an enclosure with live plants. Perhaps there are ways around this, like using foliage that isn't appetizing but still isn't poisonous or harmful if ingested? Awesome work as usual, by the way! It's good to see you back and flourishing.

@myeroku4182 5 лет назад

I have an adult water dragon, Im ready to go bioactive for his cage. He only goes the bathroom in one spot and I have a 7ft tall custom enclosure so I could put some nice trees in there.

@TheBioDudeJoshHalter 5 лет назад

Hey Misty Moonstorm. I would be happy to help with an iguana build. Plant selection will be important depending on the size of the Iggy. Also, plants that are safe is munched on is important like Ficus trees. You're welcome to reach out to me at Customercare@thebiodude.com or give us a call (717)305-0684.

@emilymelvin5771 5 лет назад

@@TheBioDudeJoshHalter Thank you so much, I appreciate the reply. As of right now all my research is theoretical (though I am going to be upgrading my currently little boa's setup to a bioactive one hopefully soon, so exciting!) although there are several 'dream animals' on my list for the future and the iguana is one of them. I was intensely curious if it would even be possible at all, because it's something I'd very much like to do in the future. I intend to create something that will house it for its entire life, as a setup this large will be expensive (I've had my eye on a very massive enclosure, one of the custom pvc ones although I'll need to ask them to make some tweaks to the design, namely the shallow substrate tray) and it would just be more stress for the little one to constantly have to be changing his enclosure as he grows. Either way, thank you once again for indulging me, I apologize for wasting your time as I'm certain you're a busy man. If you'd be alright with it considering it would just be me asking questions and not shopping, I might contact you via email to discuss some things that are a little fuzzy in my mind still, but of course if you don't have the time I'd be more than happy to continue solo research. Have a great day!

I think the air flow might work better uf it was on the sides as well, or instead of the back. That way if you needed you could add a fan, or even aim a desk fan at an opening. Could do so with a drill if need be. Cant wait to see the results of this

For a bioactive setup you will want additional venting. We have an option on our site to add more vents to your enclosure.

@theprelovedpixie1255 4 года назад

Hi, regarding your night time bulb as beardies are obviously diurnal so if a bulb comes on at night it will disturb them and confuse their sleep pattern. You would be better installing a ceramic heat emitter bulb into the middle of the viv which emits heat instead of light so won't disturb him. They only need extra heat at night if your home drops below 16 degrees Celsius at night. The ceramic heat emitter should be controlled by a pulse thermostat

As long as the tank is properly sealed, yes. The earwigs look nasty but they are harmless. You need to be more concerned with centipedes or ants if you don't get clean leaves.
