i live in the uk and you can get your hands on a decent Ficus Benjamina (from what i gather they can also be called Ficus Natasha) from homebase and places like that. and based on what ive read/been told on this site, they are safe, except if any branches break it is best to leave them for a few days as the sap can be irritant. just make sure you wash the leaves now and try to repot it in an organic/unfertilised soil. Hope this helps

i only have a panther, and they arent really plant eaters so i cant help with that one. i have heard that veileds can benefit from some plants but my advice would be to read into it alot as some plants are not good even if they are safe to have in the viv. another bit of advice would be to ask brad ramsey on here. this person really knows his S***, especially about veileds and is always happy to share his experiences
