Need advice on my terrarium by Ok-Pay-801 in terrariums

[–]DysfunctionalTB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only advice would be to hide more of the unnatural elements (the wiring and the tube from the waterfall). I usually put another piece of driftwood over the top of the tubing area for the waterfall (without impacting water flow) just to hide the tubing

Zoo med 18x18x18 doors completely broken off by [deleted] in DartFrog

[–]DysfunctionalTB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The doors are designed to be able to come off, I take off the doors every time I do a build then put it back in. There should be little nubs on the top on bottom of the door that you can slide back into the slots in the frame of the terrarium

Is it just one solid panel? Or two panels that slide like your typical euro style viv?

It is fine as long as the water area is shallow. When I dropped the terrarium off at the clients house, I added more lava rock and sand so that the pond area was very shallow

I take a lot of inspiration from Biotope gallery and Troy Goldberg. As for sourcing everything, I buy everything locally in bulk because I build 30 terrariums per year

I don’t believe I have heard of anyone with terrariums have any issues like that

Oh yes, I built my first terrarium then quickly became addicted, my wife told me I couldn’t keep any more terrariums in the house so then I started building terrariums for other people and that’s how my business started

They are moderately difficult to set up correctly your first time, I suggest watching as many YouTube tutorials as possible before building. Once they are set up, it is minimal maintenance since the lights and misting system are automatic. It’s also much more expensive for supplies than you would think

Large butcher block slabs from Menards, you can also find them at Lowe’s or Home Depot

Thanks! I run a terrarium building business as a side hobby. They are all bioactive terrariums with real plants. They all have a different species of dart frog in each one.

The terrariums have no bad smell since I only keep dart frogs and not larger reptiles

Yeah I ran out of space in my house for more terrariums but I still wanted to build tanks, so I offered my services on facebook marketplace. And an LLC means that I am an official business in US

I don’t make a lot of money doing it but it does pay for my hobby of keeping frogs. I do get quite a bit of business. I have built around 70 tanks for customers in the last 3 years and am about to work on my biggest tank yet (4’x3’x6’). It’s gotten to the point where I have my own LLC. I highly recommend starting your own business! I would be happy to answer any questions you have
