@thehorrorlife7190 what state are you in? Some regions don't sell it at major hardware stores. Bit some custom sign shops do. They know it as expanding pvc board

@@bradsbioactivebuilds I’m in California and yeah, they don’t sell it any longer. So instead of pvc board I’m thinking plywood, drylock or and cover it with pink insulation foam board should work fine

@thehorrorlife7190 yeah that will work. Another great option would be is to use polygem 1618. It will hold up longer and stro ger than drylok in my opinion

@gorila1958 I get mine from home depo or lowest. What state are you in?

@@chloewallbridge6056 true sips, and I ended up re-homing the mourning geckos bc they started to take over. It's definitely a fun build to do

@@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you for replying I would love to have a go at this I have one more question sorry with the overflow holes how high/ low did you create them compared to drainage layer

@chloewallbridge6056 for the water over flow hole?

@chloewallbridge6056 and the land water overflow was as low as I could make it with the bulkhead outside diameter and nut could still fit with a half inch gap from the bottom.

@jordi4384 thank you 💯

@jillianmathias3187 thank you very much and your support is appreciated!

@nelsojr1423 great question, I do let a few insects free roam for some natural hunting and enrichment depending on the animal. But a good way to socialize is to tongs feed.

@@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you for answering my question. Makes complete sense. Much appreciated.

@cassandraperry5574 thank you, it was a fun one to put together! Glad you enjoyed watching and have fun building some enclosures for your snakes!

@Snake_Therapy I know both work but I'm not 100% sure the big difference other than the lite is lighter. I can checkbfornyou Tuesday and talk with my contact over at polygem

@@bradsbioactivebuilds awesome thank you! I started with just the one gal kit so I’ll play around with it and then maybe next time try the Lite

For the record, tho, it’s $130 for 1 gallon of A and B. pretty pricey

@Snake_Therapy yeah, I always forget the smaller kit prices, I always get the 10 gallons lol

@@mattslev thank you

@KristopherMarie never late, I'm here for it! And thanx it was a fun one to put together, and he is doing great! 🤘💯🤘

@davidlewis2604 that's what's up, have fun with it!

@@bradsbioactivebuilds you’re more then welcome.

@@LanaLeon thank you, they work great! And not as complicated as it looks, you got this!

@samwendt8007 it was my 1st time using zoopoxy. Looking back on it I wouldn't have carved out the background and would have used a silicone rock stamp for the detail (like I'm currently done on a 8x4x6 paludarium video coming soon). I used 2p gallons on this build but if your not doing as many ledges and thr front backside if the pocket door then I think 1p gallons would do the trick, if not less. Hope this helps

@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you so much for the advice! I am a little confused though, you said you used "2p" gallons, but I could probably get away with "1p" gallon. What do you mean with the "p" ? On there site I see they sell quart, 2 gallon, and 10 gallon.

@samwendt8007 Oops, my bad I ment 20 gallons and 10 gallons, not p. Hope this helps!

@@dominiqueherron9406 awesome, it's one of the beat parts of a build, seeing it all come together!

@ifuknew-who3781 I got faith in you, start with something smaller, and work your way up 🤘💯🤘

@@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you I was not expecting a reply on a video from 10 months ago. I have always wanted to make my own enclosure but always felt intimidated by it.

@ifuknew-who3781 I try to answer all comments old or new lol. It's not to intimidating once you get started and there is no rush to finish. Most important part is to have fun with it.

@@bradsbioactivebuilds I have a boa that I want to build an enclosure for. Just not sure where to start. I also don’t have any tools at all.

@ifuknew-who3781 a boa build would be a fun one to do. Check out this video to get an idea on the measurements of the box itself. Everything in this build isn't needed but may also give you some extra ideas czcams.com/video/kFIuR6ZNy6A/video.htmlsi=tsHw88DhzH6whSST

That's awesome you like there, a lot of cool animals in your backyard. This one is Captive bred

Nope, no need to, I could have also used acrylic paint over the zoopoxy itself. The zoopoxybis an all in 1 hardscape media and sealer

I use tempered glass woth polished edges. It 1/4 inch thick

@@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you! 💯

Love it

🤣🤣🤣🤣 yes it is!

Most def, they are awesome but so are Niles minus the agro

@@brandonvananden4600 they're great!

@cudasfishkeeping5435 that's a great plan. Start small to learn the fundamentals then go as big as you want. I'm glad my videos helped you take the plunge into building your own. Any questions feel free to ask. Most important have fun with it!

@jordanwilde9226 thank you, it was definitely a fun build to put together. I hope you build a paludarium, you will enjoy it!

@dailydistraction3793 not yet, but I am actually in the process of building an 8x4x6 paludarium with roughly 300 gallons of water. I'm about 2 videos away from that and just started the aquatic section lastnight. Stay timed to the Ultimate Paludarium series. I have the 1st 3 parts in a playlist now 🤘💯🤘.

@michaelmcguire19 yeah, for a savannahs you should go bigger than this.

@@JaMarisArchive it really depends on the species of animal. But I run these 4x a day for about an hour each time.

@LastChancce under $500 for what you see in this video. The hardscape build video was probably another 5 or so

@@bradsbioactivebuilds thank you it helps

@daytonhunt2406 under $500 for sure. I have done estimated breakdowns in some of the other comments but this was a build I did a few builds ago so I forgot lol

@frankharris6019 thanx. I'm not sure how much zoopoxy I used cuz I had a 10 gallon kit. But if I had to guess I would say I could have ordered the 2 gallon kit for this build and have some left over. Branches I got from glassboxtropicals.com/ it is the ghost wood. Hope this helps

@patogecler7345 they mainly stay on the land and the ones that go into the water will be a quick snack for the earless.

@bkjeong4302 thanx and what concerns do you have. He is CB and not WC

@@bentheaquaman9436 take on the challenge and enjoy building one 🤘💯🤘

@@cobefriend7797 🤘💯🤘

@@MasonsMonitors thanx, much appreciated 🤘💯🤘

@Israel-bp3zq Thank you, the full build video tmgoes over the steps I took. Have fun with it. Your panther will love it!

@Gecko_Kaiju great questions. Since this is still a relatively new setup, maintenance is still being dialed in. But it does have a removable filter I can clean. 50% water change and vacuum. Isopods and springtails clean up land area. I'll throw some snails and shrimp in too to clean and a snack

@codyak488 Great question, no plans on moving anytime soon, and the bank owns my house 🤣 I did buildbit so I could cut it into 3rds and build it back together (in theory 😬). That's a bit worse case I'll have to destroy this one and the current 8x4x6 paludarium im working on. The other lastger enclosure will fit through the door frame.
