Re: Making Bioactive Terrarium, need some guidance.
this is a bit off topic for this thread but thought I'd ask anyway. I'd love to make a bioactive enclosure for my bp once she outgrows her current tub setup, and I was wondering if there is any other kind of enclosure besides an aquarium that you can make into a bioactive set up? I've only seen it done in glass aquarium style enclosures... Like, could you use a pvc enclosure or something?

yeah I’m sure you could make one with any style enclosure as long as it holds water.

One of the members on here actually did that with an animal plastics enclosure. I belive they custom ordered a deeper bedding wall though for the drainage layer, ect. If I can find the post I'll link it here.

Took a little bit but I found it. Not sure why I remember a random thread from 2017. This guy only made three threads but he also made assorted posts about his plans for a bioactive enclosure that might be of some help.

I've heard of people setting up bioactive enclosures for BPs with varied success. In my experience, BPs are bulldozers. They "redecorate" their enclosures all the time. So for me, personally, I don't think it's worth the time or expense.
But it certainly can be done, just be sure to choose solid, hearty plants.
Has anyone made a DIY Biobedding? I haven't found anything online for a recipe, and to order from Josh's Frogs just for that sounds like a nightmare to me (yay customs fees!)
