THE TERRIFYIUM - BUILDING A NEW TERRARIUM FOR OUR PANTHER CHAMELEON
Vložit
- čas přidán 13. 10. 2020
- Bruce is our lovely Panther Chameleon, who lives in our showroom since the new opening. The visitors love him; kids are super excited to meet with him, so he is a superstar. His old terrarium was suitable, but we had several problems with it. It was time to build him a decent home, and Balazs pulled his DIY skills again to do something great.

Welcome to the beautiful world of terrascaping
Yup, thanks for watching 😊 🙏
Might be.
Another vote for “nice tank but obviously not a chameleon tank.”
Chameleon die really fast when they are stressed out a lot. Please keep an eye on him like you already do. :)
You know your pet and that’s good, but even for the most curious and outside-exploring chameleon this tank is not good.
Will do! Cheers!
It's really beautiful but for me the chameleon need a lot more plant to Hide, i hope he don't stress so much always in sight
Nah he is looking to be with the visitors. He spend a lot of time in the shop walking on our desk, on our Bonsai tree etc. Pretty good with people. He would spend more time outside then inside :)
@@GreenAquaShop he can be great with people it doesn’t mean he wants to be on display all the time. Panther chameleons come from the rainforest and live in the canopy where there’s plenty of foliage. You really need more plants for him to thrive. Great looking scape - just not ideal for a panther
Would probably add a bit more plants to hide as well, it's really nice though.
I didn't get how the ventilation system is working.
Thanks for the info! Well, animals behave in a different way in captivity. I've seen that many times. That does not mean he feels bad where he is. :)
@@GreenAquaShop you can’t say thanks for the info and then ignore it 😂 you're an aquascaping channel not a reptile keeping channel... look up other Panther Chameleon vivarium videos by big
reptile channels and they'll be full of plants - because that's what chameleons need! It's quite upsetting that you'd rather spread false information (that damages health of chameleons) to a target audience who mostly wont know any better, just because you cant swallow your pride. I think you have a great channel - that's why I'm subscribed... but reptiles have needs to thrive (like fish) and unfortunately you're not meeting Bruce's as well as you could be
BRUCE IS SO BEAUTIFUL
Yup amazing creature 👍
Wow!
😉 👍
Really not a chameleon tank at all. Last tank was way better in terms of functionality.
i completely agree, it had so many branches that were skinny which i think chameleons love - they should put the cham back in its old tank, add some soil and more plants to this one and put some dart frogs in it
Yeah except he did not do that well in the old one. Move much more here seems like enjoy more the open space than the crowded one. But time will tell we can tweak on the layout if needed anytime. For sure it is better now already than the old was. Not only visual, but practical way.
I keep 4 type of chameleon. They prefer foliar cover and can feel threatened by being in the open too much .Try something like weeping fig along with plants that they can drink water from like bromeliade. I hope this helps .;)
He may be moving more because he’s stressed. They do better with lots of cover, I’ve kept chameleons of multiple species for many years.
@@goose502 - this is exactly what I was thinking when reading that he moves more in this one--he's looking for a place to feel secure.
WOW (WOW EFFECT).
Cheers Alberto.
I used to have a female. She lived her life in two ficus benjamina standing beside eachother on the floor without a terarrium. Had uv lights hanging and some spotlights for extra heating. Sprayed the leaves morning and night so she could drink from the leaves and some extra with a pipette dripping infront of her after getting home from work. She went down to the soil for laying eggs but only left her trees a handfull times. She died at the age of 6 and seeing yours really made Me miss her
Looks amazing!! but there should be a balance between esthetics and the animals basic needs ..
He needs more plants to hide and more enrichment for him... the build is lovely but its just for the look of it and not what the animal needs.
Very nice. thank you for sharing! - Little Bobby
Thank you so much.
damn bro thats a terrarium!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
😉 👍
That is great, I have had aquariums for years but recently have switched from reef aquariums to planted tanks and dart frog vivariums. I love that you showed a great solutions for a fog system and a awesome centerpiece, cover that tree with some bromeliads to bring in the jungle.
Amazing terrarium great job from all. This terrarium is beautiful and it inspires me for new projects, thank you. On the other hand, I'm not sure that a chameleon is the best choice for this type of decor. Tree frogs that are native to the mountains (like Mantella aurantiaca) would have been a better choice in my opinion.
Cheers David, will see how this goes. He did not do well in the previous one which was crowded by trees, etc. He likes to spend the time outside of the terrarium with us anyways. But now he has more space to move. We do have poison dart frogs as well as crabs, but the showroom is focused mainly to aquascapes. Maybe we will tweak this one here and there based on the first months experiences. Thanks for your feedback 👍
Wow amazing terrarium💙💙
Wow - incredible
Thanks a lot. :)
Thank you, great job
Thanks so much 👍
I love Bruce to bits, and he truly deserved a new fancy crib. Well done guys.
Thanks Mary!
So beautiful
Thank you 😍
Wow
Visually a really successful terrarium! It is only unsuitable for a Furcifer pardalis. The rainy and dry times that exist in the natural habitat cannot be realized in this terrarium! A fogger does not belong in a chameleon terrarium or in a terrarium with animals at all. Especially germs that are distributed throughout the terrarium when fogging can seriously damage a chameleon. Even the plants do not need the mist, as they also have to dry off from time to time. A rain system is sufficient and much better suited to optimize the well-being of plants, animals and the climate! Best regards
Thanks for the feedback, noted!
This is phenomenal. What an epic feat of engineering. I truly hope that chamaeleon is grateful!!! It's like the Ritz!
He is more active in the new place and more closer to people. So seems like a win 😀
Beautyfull lizard... inspiring me to make terrarium😃
That's the goal sometimes :) Glad you like the vid, thanks for watching
You're the best Mr Balasz! From aquascaping to reptiles! You're my idol!!!
Appreciate it, thanks for watching 👍
wow wow wow😍😍😍😍
Cheers!
You have a vision of ideal aesthetics that wonderfully complements my ascetic personality, and I appreciate it. Thank you.
Oh my. It looks absolutely wonderful.🔥
😊 🙏
Nailed it!! 👏
Cheers, thanks!
Thanks for the video.Great work👍👍👏👏🙏🙏.Nature in Green Aqua .........
Cheers, thanks for the support - as always.
Wow! That's so beautiful!!
Glad you like it!
Очень очень красиво как всегда) когда смотришь ваши видел ощущение что в мир фентези попадаешь! Спасибо!
You're welcome, glad you like this!
It feels empty Need more plant like pumila ficus
The previous setup was super crowded first with plants later with branches. Now we try this way 👍
Not the right setup for that animal. Stick to what you do best. Aquascaping.
I’m trying to make a fully bio active mesh cage. I think I’m gonna reenforce the bottom 6 or so inches with acrylic and fuse it to the mesh with clear silicone and a paint scraper. And the corners too.
this genius!! superb!!
Thanks Adam, glad you like it!
Beautiful setup there, thanks for sharing
Glad you like it!
Nice setup. As always. I think Bruce is happier than ever. Cheers Balazs!
He really loves the new space and he is more closer to people than it was before. He loves to spend the time with the visitors and the team 😀
It was a great job!
Very very very cool!!!!
Thanks Mikhail 👍
@@GreenAquaShop welcome
@@GreenAquaShop I like your tanks and I like your job. I will be happy see you in my friends
Welcome to the Bruce paradise :)
Exactly! 😀
wow i wish i had one like that in my house
Should make in the future. :)
Lóri
Awesome build, perfect setup for Bruce. I thought this was going to be a lot more heavily planted and with a lot more variety of plants, but with the way it turned out I am happy you went this route. Love the simplicity of the design and how focal the wood and lava rock are, and it just looks incredible with so much moss. Well done!
Thanks, yeah, I also like how it resembles a minimalist planted tank, I wanted to change the "old look" of terrariums a bit with this build.
OMG I'm in love with Bruce!!
wonderful creature 😍
Hit a like to this presenter ...his presentation is cool....from sri lanka...
You're very kind, thanks a lot. :)
Lóri
@@GreenAquaShop you are welcome ...🙏🙏🙏
Looks Amazing!!!
Thanks 😀
I feel like adding some marcgravia inbetween the rocks and on the background would look awesome, as well as some climbers like monstera/philodendron to offer him a little cover (and more climbing spots) would really complete the look. many monstera species come from cloud forests and would look amazing in the setup.
They don't really need covers though. And adding more plants would take a lot from the minimalist look. Well, this is just my view. :)
@@GreenAquaShop good scapes balance design and function. Minimalism for a chameleon is a total disregard of the animals needs and you using as art rather than the living creature it is
That's not true of course. Bruce love the visitors and people all around him. Would spend most of the time outside of the terrarium too. We had dense terrarium with plants, lot of branches as well and honestly we had more issues with that than we have currently. Time will tell if we need to tweak further the layout.
@@GreenAquaShop unfortunately chameleons don’t have the capability of “loving” - and boy do I wish they did! Chameleons tolerate you handling them. What size vivarium was he in before? My panther (Zeus, not Bruce 😂) was always at the glass when I was there wanting to come out - not because he “loved” me but because he wanted to get up high! But he always slept in the foliage provided. We all saw the old cage riddled with (spider?) wood and that would of course cause problems but well placed branches that you have now looks great! Just needs more leaves is all people are saying!
Every environment is different i guess. Since this is an aquarium showroom the base humidity is high. He feels comfortable climbing on our bonsai or ficus trees. Spending a ton of time outside of his viv. We take care of him like a baby :)
I loved it: landscaping!!!!
Exactly 😀
That's one lucky lizard.
Hey thanks, Steven 😀 Maybe the next one will be so large that Balazs can sit in with Bruce 😀
That is absolutely amazing.
Thanks!
Ahhh! I love chameleons. It turned out as usual divine!
Thanks so much, Bruce love the new place too 👍
Every week ....new concept...........just loving it.....
Cheers Debayan. :)
This beautiful
Thanks. :)
We love Bruce!!!😀💕
As we also. :)
I just love the water element and the most in the tank thanks for showing us this 😃
Cheers.
The driftwood needs some spanish moss (also an epyphite in the bromeliad family) draped and glued to the branches. Maybe add some pothos and some oak leaf creeping fig. And add a bunch of mini orchids.
Will see, previously we tried with more plants, more branches but was not that optimal. So this is a different way now. May will tweak it later.
Amazing !
😊 🙏
Love it! This makes me think about a terrarium in my home! 🦎
It is fun for sure! Thanks for watching 😀
Gorgeous! One thing I noticed was how easy (it seemed) to put all of the plants in because the front was wide open (before sliding in the glass). Wouldn't that be fantastic if we could work on our aquascaping the same way?! It would be so much easier than having to reach in from waaaayyy up on top. Whew, the dreams! Oh well. Congratulations guys for a beautiful home for Bruce!
yeah, it would be easier to work like that...
Amazing 👍🙏 great job ...
Thanks so much 👍
It’s amazing!!!!! Cheers
😊 🙏
Super!
Thanks a lot. :)
Her yeni videoyu sabırsızlıkla bekliyorum. Çalışmalarınızı büyük bir zevk ile takip ediyorum. Çalışmada emeği geçen herkesi tebrik ederim çok güzel olmuş.

Yup looks decent in the showroom now
Great Work! Now i want to see more Terrariums!!! I mean it! MORE...

I enjoyed watching this come together. I had a pretty good laugh after his commentary on "personal" distain for diy. I felt that. This is outstanding work!
LOL, cheers! :)
That's amazing! I think chameleons are so amazing!
Yup agree. Bruce is a wonderful creature as well 👍

Balaz this is beautiful! Ive been wanting to make something like this for my green tree python forever. This is stunning. Great job
Cheers, glad you like it!
Vivariums are what got me into aquariums. Id love to see more terrestrial builds from green aqua!
I am sure we will do more later, but our main focus is planted aquariums/aquascaping
@@GreenAquaShop every time i read your comments i can hear your accent in my head saying "welcome to the wonderful world of aquascaping" haha
Loving your work from Australia. Now I want a terrifyium 🤣🤣
LOL, that's terrific! Glad to hear you like it. Thanks for watching 😀
Tea.. 😍
Always. :)
Haha..
Very nice 👌👌👌
Thanks 😃
Welcome to the beautiful world of terrifyiums 🔥🔥
Yeah! :D
Sounds like you found a new calling in life.... just wait, custom orders are coming! Great job as always.
We're building terrariums, vivariums for a couple years now, but this is not our main focus :)
Amazing tank looks great , would of through some plants and moss on the log for a little cover and a better look tho
Epic!
😊 🙏
A Chameleon with a Terrarium.
What's next? A SHARK aquarium would be nice.
LOL, right!
That piece of wood is perfect :0 !!
Thanks, actually, it's at least 8 pieces. :)
🤩🤩🤩
It looks so good. Nice setup and great work. I have too come to green aqua and see it in real life 😀
Looking forward to have you over some day!
Genial..
Thank you 😊
I was asking in the comment few days back for a terrarium build and you came with this😍 So happy to see you making terrarium. Will be waiting for more!
Cheers!
@@GreenAquaShop ❤️❤️❤️
STUNNING! Now i wanted to do one terrarium or vivarium with frogs hahaha or paladarium
Yup it is good to try different things timely
Great work looks amazing - less is more in nature 😃👍
Yes, I agree, resembles an aquarium too, right? :)
@@GreenAquaShop yes, I was into terrariums and paludariums before but it kinda got boring for me so by founding about your channel you pulled me to the "dark side" which is aquarium hobby its a lot more expensive than previous and I told my wife you guys were the triggers for this transfer 😂😂😂and now as I got into the aqua hobby aquascapers started doing paludariums 😭😭
Nah do not worry. We did this in the past too. But not our focus for sure. We will do these setups timely, but we keep our focus on planted aquariums and aquascaping. 😀
Nice!
😉 👍
