I have an epiphytic vivarium, /terratium. that I have some Wittia amazonica, and some Epiphyllum, and some Rhipsalis species inside. I also scattered some Blossfeldia liliputana seed in it too. the lava rock substrate has some native moss and all the soil bacterias fungus etc, that came from the outdoor rock. My container has been going strong for over 6 months now, with no signs of failure. :tongue2:

I do want to add something about frogs.  I used to keep reptiles and amphibians. The OP- Tryptkloids, asked about putting frogs into a vivarium setting or paludarium. This kind of environment is very difficult to maintain, and I wish you luck with it. The main problem I might forsee, would be keeping up the humidity, while at the same time monitoring your (frogs), so that they do not suffer from various infections. Frog species can get various kinds of bacterial,viral, and fungal infections. Good luck with your project. I wish you the best of luck.

the reason I said tree frog is because I was looking at animals that need 95% humidity. as long as they thrive in the same temp and humidity as the mushrooms they should be good right?

You could also get a tank and make glass dividers for different parts of the ecosystem. Mushroom grow in one compartment, plants in another. If you can, any drainage water floods into the "pond" water for the frog. Divided but accessible.

The nature of truth is that there is none. Unless referring to actually documented events, truth is subjective. The truth to a Christian is blasphemy to a Jew. The truth to a scientist is only true until he/she realizes that they overlooked an element to the experiment/finding. Ultimately, if truth cannot be agreed upon, it isn't.

Yes, while that is true, Trypt. .. amphibians do like very high humidity, as do fungus.. some kinds of fungi can be harmful, cause disease, and even be fatal to some frogs.

Here is the Wiki link to: (Chytrididomycosis) the fungal disease that kills frogs.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chytridiomycosis

I just urge caution.. especially if you plan on spending good money on a frog species, and or various kinds of plants and mushroom species. I just don't want to see you try it, and end up spending a bunch of money on it, if it fails.

There are some articles you could read on Paludariums, that I saw and read that you might want to take a look at..

http://www.paludariums.net/

the planted tank -(forum), has a thread on species for Paludariums

http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/showthread.php?t=27008

My biggest concern, would be for the welfare of the animal life, that you would put in the environment. When I had Tokay geckos, I had them in an enclosure that was 6'tall, x 4'wide, x 3'back. . . it was like the size of a wardrobe. Anyway, I had a vivarium environment in it for the Geckos, with plants. Cleaning and maintanance are a pain. Lizards defecate EVERYWHERE!! lol. . they can be MESSY. That is another concern. The maintanance of the environment. I was forever wiping white streaks off the glass.

Also keep in mind. . that if you have arrow-frogs..there is the (handling issue, as they excrete a toxin on their skin), as well.

good luck, and keep us posted on how things progress. :wink:

Sounds like a wonderful plan but if your gonna want to grow mushies in there as well you might want to find some plants that enjoy water alot.


You know those mushies don't need to dry out:grin:




I was going to mention that. Starting first with mushies in there, ud have to find what plants would be acceptable to those conditions. For instance if you tried to grow cannabis in there with the mushrooms it wouldn't work, ur bud would end up moldy etc etc ya know? I hope you can make this work id love to start my own if we could get a thread on it outlining the whole process. Good luck -kushroom
