65 Gallon Bioactive Vivarium with Waterfall for Python // I Didn’t Think This Would Happen…

[@lechef5832]

I don’t do this often but the transitions in this video and editing is top tier, came for the bio active stuff and stayed for the editing haha. Keep doing what you do best!

[@JustTravis_trj]

I appreciate it!

[@zoereader5928]

Least I now know I'm not the only one that buys absolutely "everything" I could ever possibly need for a new build. Never thought of using the bath to store it all in, nice one. 😆

[@rachelsutton5908]

this is a brilliant setup that gave me so many ideas and i learned tons! the editing was also great and super engaging, thank you!

[@GrandmaRob]

Very well done editing and the vivarium looks awesome

[@soapydragon5741]

Omg it’s finally here! Your vids have such an amazing quality and thats not even to mention the beauty of your creations! Keep on building!

[@JustTravis_trj]

This just made my day 🥰

How does this not have more likes? This thing is beautiful

[@AlbertoMartinez-ig7zu]

How do you keep the water clean??? Do you habe to change it? Do you have isopods specifically for water?

[@JustTravis_trj]

@@AlbertoMartinez-ig7zu so it’s got a filtering system in there. I’ll spot siphon any messes out as needed, but otherwise I’ll just clean out the filter every so often (the moss and plants help remove any nitrates as well)

[@andrewparker318]

Bruh your videos deserve so many more views! Your quality of content is incredible!

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

I suggest everyone resilicone over the existing seams on new tanks. My exo terra didn't start leaking until a week after I had it set up already.

[@JustTravis_trj]

Absolutely 💯

[@forrestcrabbe]

If yer on a waiting list, I'd say super dwarf retic 🤘y'all have a badass day🤘🍻🤘

[@JustTravis_trj]

That’s what I ended up going with! Posted my unboxing experience if you’re curious

[@alyssagottner4020]

I’m so excited! Love your vivs

[@JustTravis_trj]

Thank you! This video was quite the project haha

[@denyglow]

Amazing beautiful friend

[@KymberleeHolladay]

What did you use to cover the pump? And what plants did you use?

[@JustTravis_trj]

I used some matala mat filter foam over it then put rocks over that. Eventually I went back and made an egg crate based cover that like just like the rocks

[@andrewparker318]

I’ve been looking forward to this

[@jeffdeff8800]

So is your waterfall cycled or do you have to change the water out every other day?

[@JustTravis_trj]

The build and waterfall are are both still going strong, 2 years in! The waterfall has a filter on it that I have to clean out every so often, but mostly I don’t need to do much maintenance on it.

[@Trellemania]

Super duper!! Love your stuff man

[@tdeuce7]

this is exactly the kind of bioactive viv i have been looking for to build! Thanks for sharing!

[@JustTravis_trj]

Of course!

[@JustTravis_trj]

@@Red8675309666 the waterfall is made of gray Seiryu Stone, it’s my favorite.

[@valhendrix03]

I wish you went more into detail like you older vid.

[@evanboston2607]

What size tank do you have?

[@JustTravis_trj]

This one is around 65 gallons 36” wide, 18 tall, 24 deep

[@acaciaballpythons]

Lol did you say a retic was a "medium-ish" snake😂. Its only one of the top 3 largest species in the world. Even the super dwarfs can exceed 10ft. Given this video is a year old, whatever snake you got already outgrew this tank, which is a shame because it seemed like a lot of work. Or do you not keep large snakes long term? Whats the plan for the next setup if you keep them? Do you have any adult giants already?

[@Jontae4288]

I have a rainbow boa, jungle carpet, and a black milksnake.

[@JustTravis_trj]

I was very close to getting a carpet

[@gordmonteath6090]

Trav ,enjoy your

[@gordmonteath6090]

Enjoy your vids I built a bioactive and put in foamboard in a water feature.The foamboard slowly got saturated and leaked. If I build again I'd go with PVC enclosure for your brazilian. Can drill through with no cracking issues and waterproof

[@JustTravis_trj]

For sure. This isn’t foe the Brazilian, but I’d definitely do it a bit differently next time. The liner has worked for the water feature so far, so I’m not completely reliant upon the foam.

[@jeffdeff8800]

That prob lasted all of 2 days making ot out of cardboard. Lol

[@JK-yu6zq]

So I went to the website and they don't have any pricing on any of the enclosures. So I have to wait for an email to get a price for an enclosure, that's pretty ridiculous in my opinion

[@JustTravis_trj]

Yeah that’s not good. Try their Amazon page, that’s where I got mine. They have a few different options. www.amazon.com/stores/REPTIZOO/%E4%B8%BB%E9%A1%B5/page/CDFAA293-2641-483F-927F-618F00CD2E57

@@JustTravis_trj awesome I'll check it out. Thanks for the response!

[@alyssagottner4020]

Maybe I just missed it in the video, but where is the tank from?

[@JustTravis_trj]

This one is from Repti Zoo. I’ve actually really enjoyed their product quality compared to the other bigger brands out there.

[@alyssagottner4020]

@@JustTravis_trj thank u sm! they look great

[@Groldomtube]

Did you show how you made the hide?

[@JustTravis_trj]

I did not for time’s sake. But it was just a regular plastic hide, I coated it with the Great Stuff expanding foam, let dry. Carved. Coated in 100% silicone, then pressed in the coco fiber from the background

[@the_shire_critters6587]

This is an amazing video, best part is that covid vaccine sticker…yessss!

[@JustTravis_trj]

Thank you! (And science for the win!)
