- Hello UA-cam viewers, I hope everyone is having a wonderful day. Warning! These pictures and videos were taken with my phone. You may suffer from motion sickness in watching this video. This is my First UA-cam channel, first video, first vivarium.
This set-up is in a 40 gallon breeder tank. This is my first attempt in making a vivarium, so please excuse anything that may have been done wrong. Overall, I spent about six hours from start to finish in this set-up, a little rushed. I will be adding some poison arrow dart frogs into this system in the next few months. I am looking forward to getting feed back from the public and professionals that have been in the hobby, enjoy.
This makes me realize how shitty my aquarium is
Matt Chong That's why I'm saving hundreds before I buy a pacman frog, so I can create something like this.
Evil Genius97 Pac man frogs probably wont really use it as they prefer to stay buried in one place but I love to see people like you and the person who made the video who try to provide the best possible care for their animals. Good on you
Matt Chong same
We all start some where lol
You will get it together one day...Don't give up ..At least you are honest.. I do have a empty fish tank...
When the fog come on I was all like "OH COMMON DUDE!!" This is the best frog set up I have ever seen.
If the frog falls into the water, o the fish die?
+Karlitos Con K The fog is made from water, so it is safe for all animals. The fogger in this video using ultrasonic waves to create a mist, then it uses a small fan to push it through a tube, and into the vivarium.
+Karlitos Con K No, that's a very dim witted question, lmao.
These videos make you wonder
Why am I not a frog
two years later and I finally find the philosophical question of life
Juwairiyah Haque And 8 months later have you realized the frog is you?
We're frog, but with bad scaper. ykwim
Lel xD because your parents are human.
bc at any moment u could be killed by anything. a bird snake spider dog cat, pretty much anything
Damn, sell these at a expo, 500 each. People would buy, you are no reptile keeper... Your a loving artist... Amazing.
There's a great sense of depth to your build! It makes the enclosure look a lot bigger than 40 gallon.
Wow, I was like thats amazing, then he turned the fog on and I'm like, IT GETS BETTER!?!?!
Lol
Its a shame that fogger has so many bad reviews on Amazon. A ton of people say it stops working within a month.
chefdan87 Darn, that stinks. And in a vivarium its hard to replace parts.
As I started watching your video, I thought "This is going to be another fake looking boring build with not enough land" When I saw the transformation after you added everything, I was impressed with the beauty of this build. Please give us an updated video on this great tank! This is an EXCELLENT first build! Absolutely beautiful!
Natural looking setups look much better and most of the time are better for the animal, I don't understand why most people don't keep their pets that way. This looks awesome
Because there will be to much maintenance involved.
Adrian Alob Yeah that's what people think, but it's actually the opposite, it takes much more time of research thow, but once you have a bioactive setup going it cleans it's self, literally, the bugs and bacteria eat the animal's waste and the plants clean the water if you have a semi aquatic setup. If your interested check out bioactive groups on Facebook or read about it online.
+Franklin Michael really? i thought bugs are bad
bangasou12 If you have bugs that eat the waste and can be eaten by your pet then yeah then their great. What reptiles do you keep? Ive seen dart frogs, salamanders, toads, bearded dragons, leopard geckos, ace monitors, savannah monitors... all in bioactive setups
Franklin Michael I'm thinking about getting a pet and I'm doing some reasearch. at first i thought that having a virarium will be to much work Have any recommendations for frogs or reptile?
You sir, have created the most beautiful Vivarium I've seen yet!
This is absolutely amazing. Fish and frogs, you've got like a little ecosystem here! You are an artist!
This would be the drug free fix to my chronic insomnia!!! I HAVE TO HAVE ONE!!!! Beautiful and stunning. INCREDIBLE!
Can you come to my house and help me make that, or? haha SO awesome
That could not have been your first one
It looks to good lol
Wow, such a beautiful enclosure!!
Leopard ha
Oh HELLO!!
THIS IS THE BEST BUILD I HAVE EVER SEEN WITH THE MIX OF FROGS AND THE WATER FEATURE AT THE FRONT ITS LIKE A VIVARIUM BUT A NATURAL HABITAT FOR THEM AND THE FISH I LOVE FISH AND ESPECIALLY SHRIMP YOU ARE NOW MY FAVORITE PERSON!
This is the greatest vivarium I have ever seen, I'm amazed. Those are probably the happiest goddamn frogs in the world haha
Except for the ones in nature maybe :/
Jacob Temple
Uh no. Not to be rude, but... A frog in the wilderness will likely be parasite ridden/ and could be eaten alive any moment. What's great about these vivariums is that every possible thing can be perfect for them- such as humidity, temperatures, and terrain. When made correctly these frogs can thrive, like they clearly are in this video.
+Zion Adams okay, let's say humans instead, I have dart frogs and feel bad for them sometimes. If a human got sent to jail he will be in misery, but in certain cases better health than than some people on the outside. So even though he could be doing better in prison he wants to be free and outside. But he can't.just like the frog who wants to be free but would be healthier in captivity.
+Zion Adams do you think if he set this tank outside (imagine if this was outside) and opened the doors and let the frogs out, what do you think the frogs would do, be in 1 space for the rest of their lives or free?
Jacob Temple
Unless he lives in the rainforest of South America- they would dry out and die within minutes lol. And dart frogs don't wander "free" around aimlessly, they congregate in areas that suit their environmental needs. Frogs are very different from people, so that is a silly comparison- amphibians/reptiles don't feel safe in huge areas, they become fearful and the stress alone sometimes kill them. Smaller enclosed areas helps their mental state tremendously, how do you have dart frogs and not know this?!
Very nice! But it is missing one thing. You need a toy X-Wing crashed in the water. It would complete it.
Maxwell Dacre It is natural the x wing naturally ran out of fuel
Benjamin Rapp Or a miniature Yoda chilling on a rock👍
Benjamin Rapp *perfect!*
Anthony why not both!
Around the frogs, a perimeter create.
...I suddenly have the urge to watch a BBC documentary....???
On pornhub
For research purposes
This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen.
Same
Look up Eriks Paludarium climate control. Not the best I've seen, but awesome control. Also, look up HD video of my vivarium. I think that is the best I've seen. Check out this picture to give you an idea of how he made it... s396.photobucket.com/user/mef1975/media/Raf%20Denier/Raf%20Denier%201_zpssuekau57.jpg.html?sort=9&o=0
Stunningly beautiful, could feel my blood pressure dropping as i looked. magical. thankyou for sharing.
Wow, what a frog paradise. I love the added fish just for a natural environment.
by the title I thought everything was gonna rot or explode or some shit like that, but this just looks amazing! And it's your FIRST vivarium! Nothing but respect, man
This is just stunning, a slice from the rainforests. Simple materials used in the best way
If I was a frog I would want to live in that!
i want to live in it anyway!
Lemonademolotovz Go to the rainforest! Be exoticated ;)
cant
too poor
Im sorry :(
For a first vivarium, this is really sharp. I am curious how the Deerfern moss did. Also, next time, I would use silicone and attach peat moss to the areas that the spray foam was exposed. It will facilitate root expansion, and look much better. Great job, from a guy who has built literally entire frog rooms of tanks like these.
@JohnGibeau could you please be so kind as to explain what you mean about the moss to silicone attachment on exposed areas & it facilitating in root expansion? I hope to find you well, I know it’s been 3 years. Take care.
@@littlepigboy Where you can see spray for an you essentially cut the shiny bits off and cover it in silicone. You can then drop peat moss or any other soil on it which once dry, looks natural and allows roots to climb up and moss to grow on.
@@littlepigboy watch a serpa design video on it. You don't want to show exposed foam right so cut off the parts that are shiny, then apply silicone and add substrate. That way it looks natural and also plants can grow on the substrate
@@K8Stuff thank you!
@@ImmortalWombat that’s a great idea
BEAUTIFUL ! PEACEFUL AND GREAT FOR FROGS AND FISH ! Just a couple of nice cold beers and Wooooooooooooo.......GOD BLESS....Thanks for sharing this video ! OUTSTANDING .....AWESOME .......AND GREAT MUSIC TOO....QUIET.....
On a friends account, but was watching the video. This... Is gorgeous. No one can deny that. There are a few problems i see though depending on what your goals are... If you intend to breed your frogs, it will probably never happen. Fish will eat eggs / tadpoles more than likely, and the water frogs would compete being much larger. As well, if the water frogs are true amphibious and reach land, they will most likely compete and over power your dart frogs and kill them. That's why it's never a good idea to mix frogs. As someone else has mentioned here, filter setup should be accessible as well so that it can be cleaned. Otherwise... This is perfection when maintained...
I have watched this video at least 6 times now. What an amazing set up, thank you so much for sharing.
I watch this when I'm about to have a panic attack. Works every time
As a human, I would be thrilled to live a place like that. The frogs are in paradise.
How did you build the rocky terrain portion? Or did the terrarium come with it?
Absolutely awesome!
This is what it looks like when someone takes the task seriously. Marvelous piece of art!
This is your first vivarium?? All I can say is WOW!! You did a fantastic job.
WHY WOULD YOU PUT ? VIEW AT YOUR OWN RISK ! BECAUSE SOMEONE COULD FALL IN LOVE WITH THE SCENE ! WELL I LOVE WHAT YOU CREATED ! AND THE FISH ENJOYING THEMSELVES IN THAT WATER ! AWESOME DUDE....THANKS..CAN'T STOP WATCHING THIS VIDEO ! SORRY....
Intoxicating ! Couldn't stop watching this video ! Any animal lover would understand ! View at your own Risk ! Was no disrespect too designer of this Tank ! Enjoyed the Scenery as well !
I JUST LOVED THIS TANK SO MUCH ! I SAID VIEW AT YOUR OWN RISK....INTOXICATING TOO THE HUMAN EYE ! LIFE LIKE .....LIKE A REAL FORREST ! THAT'S ALL FOLKS....AWESOME JOB... CREATIVE MIND TOO..
Im still waiting for a new tank to be posted, either a new pet or an upgrade to this one
yea but if your not a huge animal lover or dont know what that stuff even is then its pretty much CLICK BAIT!!!!! theres no such thing a accidental CLICK BAIT because you obviously read over it and left it. its not disrespectful just cheap, you could have easily worded it different
Probably because of the immense time and money suck to get it going.
Incredible setup! Thanks for sharing
I live in Omaha NE and our zoo is rated one of the top in the world and this setup is better than anything I've seen there. Well done!!
+damian Yates yes it is better than what I seen at Henry doorly zoo
Crazy I randomly came across this video lol I based my first vivarium 9 years ago off this video! Started a he’s hobby! Still going strong 9 years later!
Cracking setup. Thanks for sharing :)
who the fuck dislike this this is amazing
Jealous people
im jealous but still love it
+Tommy Budiman what are you doing in here mang
im looking looking sapa taw ad new knowledge, bgono mang.
Ronald Warren dude there from the rain forest RAIN there natural habitats have that
You should put a mini Yoda figurine in there. mmMmm, delightful it is!
This is beautiful. Must be a great stress reliever to watch the vivarium.
Wow... one of the best tanks i've ever seen!
Attempt!? That's fantastic!
Wow! Pretty awesome. I am into reef aquariums so I can appreciate anything that is well put together inside a glass box. Absolutely beautiful. Makes me want to build one for my office
I absolutely love this set up. Ive been looking for a long time trying to find inspiration for my own vivarium. I now have found it. Just gorgeous.
Gorgeous viv!
can I live there?
I wouldn't want to if fog came out of my floors it be kind of spooky
@@forestothejungleman9116 I like fog
One of, if not THE nicest most realistic and naturalistic tank I have ever seen. Amazed.
Very natural setup, like a piece of the jungle in your living room. One of the best I've seen until now.
I really wish I had the money to build something like this and a place to put it in my house. My White's tree frog deserves better than his pathetic little 10 or 20 gallon tank he has now. I feel bad for him. But I don't have the money nor experience for this, and I don't even have a place to put it. I wish I could get more for my frog, and a friend too. He has lived in the same tank for 6 years now...
awesome! i wanna live there.
OMG. i was like, in jungle book HEAVEN watching this. Truly amazing work. I could only dream of duplicating this set up you did
This a beautiful and naturalistic paludarium and thank you for showing how you made it
Truly AMAZING work! You should consider maybe seeing if you might make a few extra $ making and selling a couple of these! With the attention to detail you show many would be interested in owning something so beautiful to house their beloved amphibians!
I second the motion! How much to set up a Florida native 4'x2'x2' snake paludarium? I have the snake, heat pad, and the glass cage/stand, nothing else. I'm thinking with the snake not being of the tropics, I might have to avoid a lot of misting or moss to negate any respiratory issues, but some sort of bush/bonsai, wood/rocks, fern, background with vines/roots, emersed/bog plants, and waterfall pump on timer, yeah, help with plant specimen selection, appropriate lighting, and set up, that'd be nice.
Wow !!! If this is ur first attempt at building a Paludarium, I can only imagine what more beauty u could have on ur next one . Its just absolutely wonderful..... Your branch looks like it still has bark on it. Did u seal it with something ? There are no tannins in the crystal clear water . Thank u for sharing this Beauty.
Kaye
Lol the kid playing wii in the background.
Great Build. I would never have been capable of doing this at that early in experience. My first vivarium sucked. Period.
Beautiful vivarium! I LOVE all the moss you've incorporated. And the air plants!
I am the last one who left a comment an I read all ur comments. Amazing but whats more amazing is u didn't answer one of them. ??? Unless something has happened to u I don't understand. U wanted feedback, but yet seems like no appreciation to the people who admired ur work, or answer their questions. I don't mean to sound rude, just people were so interested how u did certain things and so complimentary . Just puzzled !!!
LOL This is the first time I seen you puzzle, thanks for the shout out, I did watch this tank now also and you puzzled :)
So u didn't think I was being rude ? An agree with me
Nope it is not rude, it is your opinion, but the movie is more then 1 year old, maybe he is not into the channel anymore IDK :)
Thats true, and I thought about that, but the comments were new then. Sso mabey he'll never see my comment.! Hell he wouldn't! answer it annyway. Hahaha
LOL
Incredible first try! I am totally inspired! How exactly does your waterfall filter work though?
LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR! this is not an attempt, THIS IS A MASTERPIECE!
What a pretty little blue frog hopping around in the vivarium. That must be a poison dart frog. They're so pretty!
Nice vivarium man!! Looks better than most of the "professional" ones!
Can you make an update on this?
Wallywutsizface Imagine if it was expanded to a 60 Gallon aquarium
this is the most beautiful terrarium ever, you matched everything that tank needed
Thanks tdg223, I just tried it on my own. You can find info from people's ideas off the Internet. I would recommend researching on mechanical issues, such as plumbing, filtration, etc..., then you can let your imagination do the rest. I would recommend keeping in mind maintenance and the special needs of specific species. Good luck, I'm going to be working on another project here soon. Check back everyone.
Beautifu !!l But the water level is too deep for Dendrobates
brutalizza I'm kind of upset that i had to scroll so far through the comments before someone said this...
EXACTLY MY POINT! lovely tank but wrong choice of livestock@@nicholasharris3241
I was wondering this myself.
agreed, needs a whole bunch more floating plants, like duckweed covering the waterline, so they don't drown if they fall in.
How deep is it essential for a dendrobate to be in water?
So how long did this last? I'm asking this question because eventually your filter will become clogged beyond recognition and there's no access to without ripping half of it apart.
Sounds to me like you're assuming.
I know exactly what you mean. It's not a matter "if" this will happen, but "when". That being said, they did a good job avoiding dirt and adding barriers, so I think it will last a while.
mattyjazzz
Assuming what? watch the video.
Awesome and inspiring!
I could stare at this all day.
This is absolutely breath taking. I'm building my first viv now, and I can only hope it looks half this good.
Dude, you make something awesome, that everyone has questions about, and then you don't answer them?! Did you forget your password or something? I wanna know what kind of foam, are the plants all live, what kind of fish, do the frogs eat them? And you have several frogs in with your dart frog.....are they all poisonous or just the blue one? Which frogs can live together with a dart? What other creatures can live peacefully in my little frog world? Any reply is appreciated......any non-reply is kinda rude! :(
the foam he used is a pond foam thats nontoxic used in outdoor ponds, all the plants are living and im pretty sure the fish are tetras. No the frogs shouldnt eat them if they are fed properly. All dart frogs are poisonous if you lick them or ingest them... im farely sure they are harmless to other frogs in the tank as generally the species in this tank dont eat others of its species. Sorry im not the person who uploaded this magnificant vivarium but hopefully i helped you out?
Dripping_Faucet the frogs arnt posion unless they eat the poisonous ants that are their natural diet
Great stuff pond and rock foam is safe for fish and terrarium
Dripping_Faucet The person in this video mixed amphibians. As you can see in the water bottom part, there are African Dwarf Frogs swimming in the bottom.
Do you know how his make the Fog?
Very very nice looking tank! But what will you do when the pump is broken?
LupoWolf easily replaceable
This is the very definition of a perfect piece of nature. Excellent job.
holy guac this is the best vivarium I've seen by far. I literally busted nuts when he turned on the fog machine and when I saw that there were live fish in the water. This is amazing honestly i would give him by left hand for him to make me a tank like this.
damn thts dope.. how it should be done.. dont buy exotic pets if ur ability to care for thm isn't up to grade. iguanas aren't dogs nd snakes dont belong tucked in a draw
I want to be a frog now give me that plz!
I seriously shed a tear watching this. Stunned.
I see why you said 'view at your own risk'. I am SOOOO jealous! I want this vivarium!
Awesome video with awesome music! ^o^
Will ninjas come and attack me after I watch this?
yes
in about when you read this
This is what my grandson is wanting. I love the looks of this so much better than an aquarium.
Beautiful work. This is perfection. Thanks for shearing.
How is it doing now a year later?
It's doing well. Thanks for asking.
Anna Benitez Is it possible to see it? :)
Anna Benitez Ya, show us your tank hobo
i used to think my vivarium was beautiful... it is so ugly in compare to this
I will be taking inspiration. I want to get started. It's going to be a long and time consuming process but will be well worth the beauty of it. 💚
I suffered from awesomeness sickness by watching this video!!! So much work, I'm sure your animals are very thankful :)
Yes!!!! all sorts of waterdragons LOVE water of course and like to climb. They get 2-3 feet so always prepare for changes in the future
Absolutely stunning, I would live in there it is a mini paradise!
That is one amazing Paludarium! A real pice of nature...
This is absolutely mesmerizing. Great job....very inspiring!
this is truely a stunninng tank. great work
Your Paludarium is absolutely stunning, thank you for sharing with everyone your results of your efforts. Very peaceful to watch your video. =)
Great looking tank thanks for sharing!
Beautiful nice job with the rocks in the water, love the mossy branch also
While I was looking at your video, before I read the description, I was thinking that it looks like a perfect habitat for poison frogs. They take some work, and it's best to feed them flightless drosophila, but they are beautiful. Well done.
Excellent. I wud look at it all day if I had it. Brilliantly done.
Why TF would someone dislike this? Amazing job!
Just come across your video. Wow.wow.wow and more wow.absolute stunning
Awesome I would love a setup like that. Great work!
That is truly a work of art. Great job!
Awesome setup. I think I found my new hobby
Wow!!!! For the first time! Your a natural. AWESOME JOB!!
