How To Setup A BIOACTIVE LIZARD TERRARIUM!! (LEAP habitats)

[@trenthobson2756]

Curious to see how the fogger preforms long term. I've never had good luck with the foggers from Zoomed, but really love how they can produce a misty little jungle for my humidity-loving reptiles.

[@MikeTytula]

Ya so far so good! Thanks for watching man! Love to see that you are still watching!

[@SB-bh7ti]

Loved the video and respected care you take to make these lives better.

[@MikeTytula]

That is the end goal! If I could I'd make rooms for everything!

[@ingeniouspixie]

Of course we want updated substrate info, please! 😁 Also, any plants you recommend or have for sale.... 👍

[@MikeTytula]

I will have a ton of plants available at the CRBE next weekend :)

[@nataliesreptileroom3348]

This is great, we want to go bioactive for our crested gecko and this video is a huge help

[@MikeTytula]

This will be perfect for your crested gecko! Similar concepts, just more cork bark for them haha.

[@nataliesreptileroom3348]

@@MikeTytula awesome, thank you!

[@MikeTytula]

Good luck on the setup!

[@averyvanderlouw1193]

The GTA reference lmao, this build was awesome

[@MikeTytula]

Haha thanks Avery, glad someone picked up on the reference!

[@timdoppler4977]

Nice work.👌🤙

[@MikeTytula]

Thanks!

[@ashersamphibiansandreptiles]

Awesome!!! I’ve always wondered how to make a bioactive tank for lizards

[@MikeTytula]

Cant tell if that is sarcastic or not haha

[@ashersamphibiansandreptiles]

@@MikeTytula lol I m usually sarcastic! But this want sarcasm XD

[@MikeTytula]

Haha well thanks for the kind words!

[@chaitanyakaushik3871]

I ❤ your videos on lizard 🦎 s ,,!

[@MikeTytula]

Glad you enjoy them! There should be more coming in the near future!

[@barbhelle5481]

Thank you Mike.

[@MikeTytula]

Thanks for watching Barb!

[@ChantalsCritters]

Great video

[@ChantalsCritters]

We will see you at the expo. Gotta get spring food.

[@MikeTytula]

Sounds good! We will have plenty! As well as some new cheeto dust springtails (Orange springtails)

[@zzzzbumm4608]

Do a follow up video or short on this please

[@MikeTytula]

Not a bad idea! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@SB-bh7ti]

I would like to see a follow-up on this lizard habitat and maybe someone else's build-out if much different ❤

[@codydelisle1305]

pretty sure I just fell in love with this guy!

[@MikeTytula]

Noice haha

[@dancohen8305]

Great video brotha

[@MikeTytula]

Thanks for watching man!

[@Tom-repgeck]

Great video! I've had a leap enclosure for a few months now (22 x 17 x 36) for my Green Keel Belly lizard (similar to your little green ones). The enclosure was super easy to construct and I enjoyed decorating it. I'm finding a small leak in one area though ... thankfully I bought the drip pan too!

[@MikeTytula]

Glad you enjoy them! It's holding up fairly well for me as well!

[@ColdbloodedCompassion]

Thanks for sharing! Nice set up! Noticed a gap in the drainage area of this tank...Was that a trick of lighting or actually there? If so how did you fix it? I have been looking at different enclosure options as the collection grows... Thank you so much!

[@MikeTytula]

That is in the front to allow airflow in the front of the tank, so you would have to keep the substrate level below that gap.

[@ColdbloodedCompassion]

@@MikeTytula Thank you so much! That makes sense. Going to have to look further into the tanks...love the light weight.

[@mikeyben6144]

So here's the video of what I'm waiting for to elevate my Tachydromus care. 🙏

[@MikeTytula]

This will help!

[@Dis_Dor]

Dose this work with wester fence lizards?

[@MikeTytula]

You could probably make it work for them.

[@kevinpoe8137]

I will be receiving a pair of pacific blue tail skinks (Emoia caeruleocauda) hopefully I will be able to breed them and get a captive population going

[@MikeTytula]

That's awesome! I'm so glad to hear that!

[@cokski]

Nice bioctive build! By the way no shout to me? The original owner of your takydromus dorsalis😂 -Rico Canlas

[@MikeTytula]

Hahah sorry Rico tbh I forgot that I told you I would mention your name! I will hopefully remember next reptile room tour!

[@cokski]

@@MikeTytula no worries Mike, its all good. I am happy to see my previous babies doing awesome with great reptile person :) Still will wait for my shout though hahahaha

[@MikeTytula]

Hahah I will need to remember it for the next video!

[@raphael9749]

Updated ultimate substrate video please!

[@MikeTytula]

It certainly will be coming! Got a bunch of content from Madagascar to post though!

[@loganham7349]

Would this work for a small Leachie?

[@MikeTytula]

Even an adult leachie this would be fine for.

[@ethanhood204]

updated substrate guide!

[@MikeTytula]

That will definitely be coming!

[@cohenwedding4568]

When will leap be available in Canada?

[@MikeTytula]

Im hoping soon! I know so many people that want them!

[@tommie827]

Can you use this technique for frogs?

[@MikeTytula]

Which technique? Just this method of building an enclosure you mean?

[@reneemaurice9508]

Although that is a fantastic enclosure, can you recommend a Canadian site for enclosures ?

[@MikeTytula]

Unfortunately they aren't in Canada yet! Where are you located?

[@trentonjeffers1]

They ship to Canada now

[@mesamesa13]

What is that purple flower?

[@MikeTytula]

Some sp. of sinningia

[@AliNeisy]

Can anyone tell me what the yellow gecko (or anole?) In the thumbnail is?

[@AliNeisy]

Ok found it already, its Pseudogecko smaragdinus

[@MikeTytula]

Nailed it!

[@briannahill9204]

Would a gargoyle gecko work

[@MikeTytula]

In this enclosure? Ya absolutely!

[@jazminforbes209]

New video for the substrate pleaseeeeeeeee for turtlessssss

[@MikeTytula]

Turtle substrate? What turtles do you keep?

[@jazminforbes209]

@@MikeTytula eastern box!

[@MikeTytula]

Nice!

[@jazminforbes209]

@@MikeTytula I’ve been using your channel and a couple others for all my info. Thanks 😊

[@MikeTytula]

Awesome! I will caution you with who you take information from on KZbin haha. Not saying that all my information is correct either!

[@Arazand]

I need to see how the leap enclosures stand up for a few years before I would be able to trust them. Their material choices just dont seem sustainable and long lasting to me.

[@MikeTytula]

Ya I am definitely looking forward to seeing how these perform.

[@Arazand]

@@MikeTytula please do an update in a few months or a year or so :)

[@MikeTytula]

Ya I will definitely be doing an update

[@Jungleroomreptiles]

4 years ago we built a bioactive ecosystem

[@MikeTytula]

That's awesome

[@ingeniouspixie]

Why would I want a fogger AND a mister in a tank?

[@cokski]

Mister is for the plants and fogger is for the lizards. They need medium to high humidity

[@Jonathan-lo5cn]

Why extra humidity of course lol

[@MikeTytula]

Well the humidity and temperature have a direct relationship with eachother. The mister provides the moisture for the lizard and the plants, the fogger I have set to come on mostly at night, when naturally humidity levels spike.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

Hmm...earth smells earthy. Noted

[@MikeTytula]

Hahaha I hate when people do that, and I did it!

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

😂

[@steveplays5408]

Whys that?
