He can't do themed builds. He literally used one plant for this, and that plant is the most boring, stereotypical plant you can find in the vivarium world. I guarantee if he tries to do a desert theme vivarium he's just gonna plant it with pothos.

@@beastboy6799 it depends I have made backgrounds both this way and by using the spray foam they both hold up fairly well of made properly. It really depends on what you want if you are trying to get a good cost effective background going fairly quickly a gorilla glue background like this is a good choice. If your willing or able to take some extra time to go through the steps and want the ability to personalize the background a bit more then the spray foam and silicone technique is a better choice.

There's all kinds of wonderful plants out there that will work in this environment but some plants are poisonous and I think he forgot to mention that too. Be sure to check out list of poisonous plants for your particular species you're putting in the terrarium. What he calls a pathos is actually called in philodendron in many areas and I think that's safe for birds and reptiles

SteamCracksPacks I completely agree with you without the springtails as your clean up crew harmful mold can grow as a result.
@xdragonxmasterx6790
@xdragonxmasterx6790 6 лет назад
TheFoxWhisperer when does he say that? Even if he says you CAN, you actually HAVE to or mold and fecal matter from your animal will increase overtime in the tank and will dirty your tank with no way of getting rid except cleaning it. The purpose of a bioactive enclosure is to remove the purpose of having to clean it all the time and keep it a more natural environment.

Why apologize? You are absolutely right that Clint was wrong in putting "Bioactive" in the title because it isn't bioactive without a cleanup crew. He spends a few seconds to mention the option of adding springtails at the very end of his video but it's crucial information that he should have put more time in explaining. FoxWhisperer is the dick for reacting the way he did.

I've watched hundreds (maybe a slight exaggeration. However, it has been a lot of them) of instructional videos on how to setup a bioactive enclosure for small reptiles. In all of them, a drainage layer, mostly using hydroballs, was used, with a layer of ABG mix or similar on top. Of course, a screen was used to separate those two layers. I'm curious why you chose not to use that method? Would you be willing to make a video going over the pros and cons of both ways of setting up a bioactive enclosure?

He actually mentions it in this video. Basically he isnt using a drainage layer because the enclosure was more designed for a crested gecko which for an ideal setup is good to have dry out a bit during the day. So basically you wont have a constant flow of water or be using excessive amounts of water which means there wont be build up of water under the soil. Only just enough water will get into the soil for the plants. The drainage layer is just if you are going to be pumping in a lot of water which is usually the case for most rain forest reptiles if kept at optimal conditions. It really just depends on what you are keeping in there. A good way to look at it is the more humidity you need the more likely you will want a drainage layer as the more water you will want to be spraying in it. Dart frogs for example will require a lot so you will want a drainage layer. I am in the process of setting up a large bioactive viv for some chinese water dragons and i will be adding in a drainage layer as i expect to be setting the spray system on frequently to keep the humidity levels up.

This blew my mind, but my cousin getting a degree in horticulture explained to me that a drainage layer of small stones or anything similar doesn’t actually drain effectively. At best, the water just sits there at the bottom anyway but now you have less room for soil.

@@latieplolo if the water is sitting in the bottom... it drained effectively. If there is water in the bottom, then there is bacteria cleaning it and keeping your substrate from being anaerobic.

The drainage layer is also for plants so they dont rot (is that the word? 😬) i mean you need to water them but their roots cant be wet all the time. The moss will hold the water in for so long. I have a feeling even pothos will die there 😄

@@latieplolo That sounds like its draining effectively like FrogRoom said. To be drawn down to the very bottom is where the water needs to be, away from roots so roots dont rot.
