I really can't tell what's better, your editing or your paludarium build... insane work, man.
My thought exactly deserves way more subs and will get there
This is an amazing set up! And gorgeous snake!
Beautiful vivarium and gorgeous snake!
bro, the editing, the enclosure is boss!! subscribed ❤
Thank you so much!
cool terrarium wowwwwwwww
Absolutely stunning
Man, from your video quality/editing skills to your amazing palaudariums, you deserve a lot more recognition my friend
That looks stunning
Straordinario!
Incredible
this video is incredibly underrated I didn’t look at the views but assumed it was probably around one million. Production quality is amazing & I loveeeee your snakes!!!!!
Thank you! I wish I could post more often!
I can’t believe you videos and channel don’t have more views. These are so good and well done
Spread the word! Haha 😂
But thank you!
My wife sent me the link to this video. Absolutely stunning Travis! Your attention to detail is exceptional. Your videography(sp) skills are top notch! After watching, I went back and watched part 1. Planning ahead is everything. I am now subscribed and looking forward to more videos. I hope your channel blows up to an amazing amount of subscribers! I can't believe there is less than 1k at the moment.
Haha I hope it does too!
Thank you though, I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Excuse me while I pick up my jaw from the floor.
This is absolutely stunning. A work of art that is also functional and enriching for your snake. I stumbled upon this video, and smashing the subscribe button!
Thank you!
This is so beautiful and you just have to be the next big thing in the reptile community. The editing, your beautiful enclosure 🥹🥹🥹🥹. Absolutely phenomenal. Just earned a subscriber
Wow, that’s really impressive. Congrats on a great vivarium
Your Videos are on another LEVEL DUDE! AWESOME KEEP ON!
I never comment on any videos I watch and I’ve been watching these types of videos for years and I have to say that you did an incredible job in this build!
Thank you!
I’m happy with how it turned out! (and I’ve already got ideas for the next one haha)
This is an absolutely incredible video, great video skills awesome tank nice work!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you 🙏🏼
First time coming across your channel, and I have to say this is an exceptional build! I love your attention to detail, and how descriptive you are about the whole process. What a lucky rainbow boa!
Thank you!
re watching some of your older vids. if you plan to get enymore snakes i hightly suggest PVC ENCLOSURES!!! dubia has some with nice deals there 4x2x2's are 250$ atm!! id just go for the adult enclosure outright XD
I’ve considered PVC a few times and may do one in the future, but for the sake of this project, glass worked better for me.
Can’t argue with $250 though!
Exceptional video, man! Your editing and build are out of this world. I'm surprised you don't have more views. Just keep up the good work and I'm sure it'll pay off (it already has for your boa). I got a Columbian Rainbow Boa earlier this year. Your vid is definitely giving me inspiration for when he moves into his next enclosure. subbed
Damn, this is a crazy good video!
I don't know how you don't have more subs and likes, because the way you built and edit is amazing, absolutely love it😍🌱🐍 You've gained a new subscriber here, you and SerpaDesign are on point with your builds and videos 😎✌️
Thanks! I’d love to meet him one day, he’s definitely the goat
Absolutely amazing build. Congratulations 🙌🙌
This is so damn cool man
dude this is sick! I was waiting for this update! Really great job!
Appreciate it!
Wow. You're talented when it comes to this. Building vivariums is NOT easy, especially not stuff as ambitious as that
WOW! This is so inspiring! Absolutely incredible!!!
Amazing build and content. Looking forward for more videos like this
This truly is one of the best enclosures I have ever come across. This is truly magnificent 👏 👌 🙌 ❤ Absolutely stunning!!!! Wow!!!
Thank you!
I really hope to top it
Absolutely nuts man. Im jealous
i vote this build as the best all-around production in the world of enclosures. everything from the editing to the tech in the walls to the composition to the choice of snake and everything else is just so top shelf man. bravo. def subbed.
Thanks! This made my day
This is seriously awesome work! From the build itself to the editing quality, you’ve really some talent and good stuff. Seems like a very happy snake! Looking forward to see what you have next!
that boa is living the life
100%
This video is a work of art. This is officially my favorite channel. Keep up the good work!
Thanks I really appreciate that, a lot of work goes into the videos!
Would love to see an update on this build. How is everything growing in? How does Lola like it? Does she use the water?
Also, any challenges with it over time?
It’s going well! There were some challenges but everything is a learning process. Lola loves it though, and she does swim occasionally at night.
Been working on an update video for a while, I keep chipping away at it whenever I get the chance. Hope to get it out asap
This is such an amazing enclosure! I’m looking to get a rainbow boa myself with an enclosure just like this with a waterfall and pond for it to drink from and relax in. How do you clean the enclosure when the snake produces urate? How do you replace substrate with all those plants?
Honestly my clean up crew does a pretty decent job, and I just spot clean when I need to. And I rarely need to replace substrate, I’ll probably add some in a couple months though
@@JustTravis_trj That’s really cool!
Hey man! Fantastic video. Your editing is amazing and the build is gorgeous! I really appreciate how you put all of this in one video, but the way you've done this I 100% would've watched a bunch of different parts. Keep up the good work!!!
Haha thanks! It’s always a balance/struggle trying to decide how much to include and how much to cut.
What a great video. Good content. You gained a subscriber. Keep up the good work man.
I appreciate it!
Can you do an update and tips for the fish part of the aquarium???
New subscriber here... Found your channel looking for enclosures ideas... About to start my channel.... My hang up so far is editing😭 yours is next level.... Good stuff brother
You got it! 👊
For editing, just practice a bunch on low stake videos
Absolutely beautiful! But I’m concerned how do you maintain the temperature in there to required temps needed for the BRB? Heat mat? Or heating coils in the actual habitat?
So Brb’s actually don’t need as much of a hot spot as other snakes! But that being said, I have heat lamps!
And one trick with these larger spaces is to put a lamp over a ledge/perch so they can get closer to the heat if/when needed.
I have an additional smaller wattage lamp above the tree perch
Been watching vids for ideas on my build. Your design will be schematic. What are you an architect, editor? Your bad ass....thanks
Do you think a similar thing could be built for a super dwarf retic? 😀 Some day...
😉
this looks so amazing! what did you use on the black plastic hide to make it look more naturalistic?
Thanks!
and TLDR is carved foam board with tinted dry lok painted on it, but I do have a tutorial if you need the details
Super cool!
I have to do something like this for my rainbow boa 😀
Have you seen your boa swim in the water feature ?
Not often, but she does. She explores quite a bit at night
YAYAYAYAYAYA
This is beautiful, I just purchased a 135 gallon for my BCI to begin a project like this. How do you maintain heat in the enclosure?
BRB’s don’t need a ton of heat, so the double heat is enough, but I do have a smaller lamp over the tree branch perch that gets her a little close to it
@@JustTravis_trj Ok my girl requires a variant of 70 degrees to 90 degrees (basking), i suppose I could install a ceramic heat panel or ceramic heat emitters up top? Do you have any recommendations?
I 1st found you on your build for the retic like a year ago which was pretty much my ideal build if i had a snake But this is the dream build lol you done an amazing job on this and as always the editing is just chef's kiss hope to get some lil updates on the snakes since i dont see u building a new vivarium anytime soon Oh and if u dont mind me asking what program you use for editing
I’ll need to build another one of these larger ones for the retic as well as he’s growing (too fast hah)
And I use Final Cut Pro
heyoo, absolutely love that build, do you have any more sketches you could share? i need inspiration!
Thank you! And I don’t at the moment, kinda make them as I go
How much did your paladarium cost like the glass structure itself can’t find one big enough online
Yeah I had a lot of trouble finding this one. This is Repti-zoo and I could only find this size on Wayfair oddly
But there seems to be an identical one by Carolina Custom Cages on Amazon (maybe same supplier), that one is a bit more expensive though
I am curious as I would really like a paludarium with fish for either my boa or my crestie. But, how important is water pH levels for the reptile since it will probably drink from it? Is it ok to keep fish that need pH 8-9?
I would stick to water parameters and fish species close to what’s found in the inhabitant’s natural environment. My water is fairly neutral and heated for the tropical fish found in small rivers similar to where you’d find a rainbow boa
@@JustTravis_trj thank you 👌
Was that the woodlands fish gallery?
It was!
@@JustTravis_trj thought I recognized it, beautiful enclosures btw
is that an aggie ring??
University of Houston, but close!
J’ai regardé toutes tes vidéos, j’aime beaucoup… mais c’est dommage parce que là technique est parfaite, l’inspiration aussi… mais rien ne paraît réellement naturel..
tu comprends?
Sinon c’est hyper qualitatif!
