A Tokay ! This bioactive terrarium comes from Paul and features elements that help this territorial climber feel right at home.

A great arboreal gecko tank always includes a mix of branch networks and foliage that provides coverage on multiple levels. For the hardscape, Paul utilized large cork flats, cork tubes, and bamboo branches to provide spots for the gecko to hang out. If you have a Tokay, you know they spend much of the day hiding behind cork flats in their tanks!

For the plants, Paul included some that thrive on the ground and provide shelter for the clean-up crew, like sansevieria, as well as vines that provide coverage and humidity support, like pothos and philodendron, in the tank’s upper areas.

This setup uses a simple cork background, which provides the gecko with more usable surface area for perching.
Want to enter May’s contest? Tag us, DM us, email us, or post wide-angle photos in our Facebook group Bioactive Reptile and Amphibian Setups USA. Include who lives in the enclosure and any details you want to share.
U.S. entries only. We accept reptile, amphibian, and invertebrate setups with strong husbandry.

Keeping moss alive can be tricky, but The Dude has a few favorite tips to help you grow lush, thriving carpets in your bioactive terrarium:
🌱Avoid using tap water. Instead, use RO water, distilled water, rainwater, or properly dechlorinated water.
🌱Moss likes constant moisture, but waterlogged conditions can cause rot or die-off. Most species thrive in tropical or semi-tropical bioactive setups with regular mistings.
🌱Where you place your moss within the tank matters. Avoid areas near heating elements or in direct light. Inside your enclosure, place moss in shaded areas. Attaching moss to the side of a rock or branch, or placing directly on the substrate usually works well.
🌱Try placing moist sphagnum moss under the live moss to give the moss a better chance to establish. Fishing line, thread, or terrarium-safe glue can help secure moss until it naturally grabs hold.
🌱Different moss species have different needs. Some mosses are more tolerant of light and occasional drying, like pillow and star moss, while others need highly specific conditions. Java moss and many aquatic mosses do best in paludariums where they stay in contact with running water.

The Dude Crew enjoyed hanging out with 2 of our juvenile Bredl's pythons the other day: Coco and Rusty! These snakes are descendants of the legendary Price and Lazik lines, two of the earliest and most influential captive-bred bloodlines of Centralian Carpet Pythons in the United States. Known for their incredible coloration, calm temperament, and strong genetics, these historic lines helped establish Bredl's pythons in American herpetoculture and remain highly respected within the reptile community today.
