Terrarium Tips: Avoiding Common Build Mistakes + Bioactive Cornsnake Terrarium Build

CLARIFICATION: At 2:35, I say "One of the most common mistakes people make, if you're running a tropical setup: not using a drainage layer." I realize this was worded confusingly. DO use a drainage layer with tropical setups, otherwise you risk stagnation.

Hey guys, thank you for clicking on this video! I’m excited to share some tips that will help you to have a successful, long-lasting bioactive terrarium. After years of doing this, I’ve learned what the common pitfalls are and how to avoid them. As an example we’re doing a bioactive build for Nagini, one of the OGs of The Bio Dude store! This was filmed a while ago, so I can tell you that she’s been thoroughly enjoying her new digs, especially the cork tube on the right side.

Our store's showroom is getting a makeover right now which I’m dying to show you guys soon. There’s a gecko wall, a dart frog breeding & life stages area, and of course all our Australian pythons! All in beautiful custom Kages enclosures. It looks absolutely sick so far and we’re getting a good number of classic build videos out of the project. So keep an eye out for those!
