Brookesia Vivariums

Hi all,

Well its been a while, but I thought I would share my brookesia vivariums and some pics of my brookesia before I end up selling them.

Enjoy!

Those are the COOLEST pygmy chams, and those vivariums are beautiful. Henry rules! I love the variety of plants you have in the vivs. What are the names of the plants that you use?

Let me know when you decide to sell.
I'm in the middle of setting up vivs right now.
Those vivs are pretty sweet!
Thank you for sharing

Whoah, that's amazing! I'm in love with your pygmies, especially Henry. He's too cool. Nice job, it's a shame you're selling them though.

very nice tank! Would it be possible to get a pic of it as a whole?

Absolutly STUNNING vivarium!! Is that a Maxillaria tenuifolia I see? Fantastic set up and animals.

Hi all,

The vivariums are 24" x24" x36" and are made of plywood. The plywood is sealed with a boat epoxy to waterproof. Two bulkheads are drilled in the bottom. One for pumping water to the dripwall and one for draining it into an external filter and catch basin. Tubing with a dripwand is located behind the treefern panels and drips onto them watering all the epiphytic plants. There are glass sliding doors on the front.

Yes that is a coconut orchid (which smells great). There are also oncidium twinke, o. onustum, d. loddigesi, E.T Ferns, bromeliads, anthuriums, philodendron 'mini', Monstera 'Ginny' , mini african violets, and a few others. The plants are all from our greenhouse (I also sell vivarium plants for dartfrogs).

The vivarium in the second picture has a stream running through it (for the mantellas). Computer fans up top more air throughout the enclosure.

Amazing animals. Would be cool to see them in a viv with Malagasy flora. Anyone know a good source for that? Or, for that matter, what species would that be?

This are two pictures that i have taken in Madagascar from superciliaris.

Hallo aquamac, do you have more pics of the animals in their setup?
