Lost My Shooting Virginity With Friends
Small pond idea 2 plastic shoe boxes from dollar tree One to hold the place , dirt shape One to slip out and clean (I spray painted the back of this one a camo theme) for looks ) A small submersible filter , or turtle pond type Some guppies My skinks love it
So cute! I have been researching so much stuff on fire skinks cause I am looking into getting one cause I want one so bad!!!
🙂💚👍
sphagnum moss can actually impact your frogs and cause some pretty harmful damage to it or it could have a hard time digesting it’s food. other than that this is an amazing setup and will definitely be doing something like this in the future!! :)
May i know what best than sphagnum moss? Because i use it too 😢
What method did you use for heating? Great vid, btw!
This is very detailed and really helpful!
thanks for the tutorial! Im curious about how you clean it? I believe the froggy pees and poop
The springtails eat mold build up and isopods eat fecal waste. Pacman frogs have big poops so I spot clean the poop when I find it. Once a month I clean up the glass and stir the soil. Occasionally adding in more isopods and springtails as needed
@@jeferforever aha! Thank you this is amazing!!
May I know what's the function of the fogger? Is it to upkeep the humidity levels and cool the enclosure? May I know how you set that up please?
I used the reptifogger to keep it humid. You fill it with distilled water and can set how much fog you want to come out
@@jeferforever Cool cool cool. Thanks!
This is such a nice build 10/10
Is this the medium/low exoterra?
great vid :D
the setup is sooooo cute! more vids pls! <3
The music is annoying
I am interested in setting up a Pacman habitat. And I've been watching other videos. Can I ask what does the activated carbon do? Your the only person I've seen do this. I am curious what benefits it might have. Love your setup. And your horned pacman he's so cute. 🐸😍
Helps keep the water clean and mold free. So that mold does not form in the substrate
lol yup, ur the only one ive seen use “ carbon”.
A lot of substrate mixes from places like Joshs Frogs or any ABG mix you buy has it in there already, but if you are making your own mix, a lot of folk like to add it.
I have to say thankyou so much for making it easy to find all the links from this stuff you have talked about, you are the only youtuber that I have ever been able to find youtube links from on a computer, thank you so much!
Im worried aboit my frog eating the isopods lol
I was worried too. I never saw him eat them but every once in a while I would add a few more in from my seperate culture
@@jeferforever I'm gonna do this when Froggy G gets bigger lol.
I'm curious how the heat does, assuming you have a uth on the back, passing through the foam on the back wall. I'm thinking about doing something similar, but I would worry it would insulate it in the wrong way and keep heat out...
I used the heat mat on the side of the enclosure. But I kept my room at 72 degrees so I wasn't too worried about the ambient temps
@@jeferforever what do you use for the light is it just a uvb ? how many lights do you use in royal
total*
@@alexp7824 I just used a tropical strip uvb bulb
@@jeferforever so how many lights in total and names
This is a dream setup
Very curious What size enclosure is this? Dimension or Gallons how ever you know it
This is an exo terra medium low so it is 24x18x12"
@@jeferforever awesome thank you, it's a 20gal medium low....I love this setup and hope to use this as a guide to put my pacman in bio active
Did you plant the golden pothos in the substrate?
What size tank is it
its an exo terra medium low 24x18x12
Beautiful skink and enclosure but switch to a digital thermometer and hygrometer you can get a digital thermometer hygrometer for 6 bucks and they're pretty accurate.
i love how you put enough soil that your 🐸can burrow .because 🐸love to burrow. Please follow my channel. Thank you 🙂
Does the eco earth on the background decompose/decay or fall off much?
No not really
What did you use for lighting? I know I will have to provide uvb for the plants but idk what product works with tanks like this
I just used a tropical uvb strip bulb. My plants were low light so they didn't require any special lighting.
You can use a full spectrum led for plants, pacman frogs don't need uvb, and it can even be harmful for albino morphs.
This looks so good! What springtails and isopods did you use Ive heard some are better than others and I’m nervous about my first set up lol
I used tropical springtails and I made my own culture of isopods from wild caught ones. I quarantined them for like a year before adding them into my tanks
@@jeferforever are tropical temperate springtails ?
Awesome simple vivarium..😊👍..
What a beautiful home! Lucky frog :)
I'll do it as well
you're so pretty you kinda look like younger aubrey plaza and all of your animals are so pretty too <3
how do you install that fog tube? :0
I just lifted a corner of the lid to poke it through
actually the minimum is a 40gal breeder because they are so active! :)
This video was made about 3 years ago when there was very litte information on fire skinks. As you can see in the video, its a 40 exo terra
So happy you reached out to me with these videos. Yall are amazing and we are so grateful.
What happened yo his tail ?
Both the end of his tail and one of his front arms had to be amputated a few years ago
Poor thing
I have a bio active set up and I was wondering how often do you change the substrate?
With a proper bioactive set up with isopods and springtails and live plants, you shouldn't have to change out the substrate.
@@jeferforever thanks
Make sure your using GE1 all purpose silicone. the one there looks like GE2 those have mold inhibitors which you DO NOT want.
I wouldn't keep an adult fire skink in anything less than a 40 gallon. I have mine in a 36x18x18 right now and its only about 9 inchs long right now. With fire skinks getting up to 14-15 inchs long I think I try to get one that is at least 36x 24x18. I'd want it to be able to move down the side of the and have more than just 3-4 inchs.
I made this video a few years ago when the only information on their care said a minimum for them was a 20 gal. I defiently wouldn't reccomend that now. Im glad I gave him a bigger tank, he really enjoys it
@@jeferforever It's still not the easiest to find good information on them. Things are always changing with reptiles. Used to be acceptable to feed crested geckos baby food. Any advice for fire skinks that I wont find on a care guide?
Can you have a bio active set up
Yes. I've actually made it bioactive a while ago but didn't make a video about it. I made a post on my instagram @the_gecks a while ago
i can smell that silicon
thats why you let it air out for at least a week before putting anything in there
@@jeferforever oh i know haha i just meant that shit so gnarly i can smell it through the screen
Are you trying to kill the frog
lol what he's thriving
?
What size is those shelves if u do not mind me asking
He’s pretty big
I've seen a lot of people say pacman frogs shouldn't have a drainage layer because they burrow. How is it working for you?
As long as you have a good barrier and deep substrate, they shouldn't get through. Mine only burrows half way down so he hasn't messed anything up
@@jeferforever Ok cool. Any idea how much this cost to set up?
Nice Video keep it up ;)
What mister do you use
I am Japanese. You are very beautiful girl.😀
Very nice
I built my pacman frog vivarium based off of this. Thanks for inspiring
do you use any lighting for the live plants? if so which one do you use? i’m setting up a vivarium for my pac-man and i’m not sure what type of lighting to use.
For the plants I use, they don't need bright light so I don't use any special lighting. I use a uvb strip bulb occasionally. So far the pothos is thriving but he destroyed the other plants
This is amazing!
