Hello,
Since I bought my little friend 3 years ago I wanted to always improve his living standards. For a few couples of months now I have been planning his new big luxurious enclosure and finally, now he has moved in. So I thought I´ll show you guys what the end result was and maybe get some of your opinions.
Information about the enclosure:
100 cm x 45 cm x 120 cm. In inches: 39,3 x 17,7 x 47,2.
He only has live plants in his terrarium and I checked with a reputable reptile handler that every plant in there is safe to eat and digest.
I used the substrate to plant the plants in and made the terrarium bio-active. I know you guys really recommend that you don´t use substrate in terrariums but here in Sweden I have seen it worked perfectly and I went in the same direction. Never been happier.
I´ve checked with UV meter that there is enough UV radiation that comes through the top for a happy and colorful life for my little companion.
I free range all his feeders and he has no problem finding them. When he gets more comfortable with his new setting I am sure he will start to find some interesting live feeders in the substrate as well.
Of course, I will as always find room for improvement as time goes and he will have it even better. But for now, I think he is pretty much at peace.
Thanks for your reply!
