Description

Transform your reptile or amphibian’s environment with a custom bioactive vivarium designed and aged by the Frog Father team. Each vivarium is carefully crafted using proven bioactive principles, creating a naturalistic, self-sustaining ecosystem that looks beautiful and supports your pet’s health and behaviour.

These setups are more than just tanks—they’re thriving microhabitats, individually prepared and matured with live plants, substrate layers, custodians, and natural hardscape. Built with quality and care, they’re ideal for dart frogs, tree frogs, geckos, isopods, invertebrates, and more.


🌿 Key Features:

  • Aged and Cycled Setup: Substrate and custodians are matured over time to support natural decomposition and plant growth from day one.

  • Tailor-Made Design: We build your vivarium to suit your species—terrestrial or arboreal—with input on layout, humidity zones, and plant choices.

  • Natural Hardscape: Hand-selected cork, bark, wood, and stones to create depth, structure, and shelter.

  • Tropical Plants & Mosses: Includes live species suited to humidity, lighting, and climbing needs. Typical examples: Marcgravia, Ficus pumila, Pilea, and Tillandsia.

  • Clean-Up Crew Included: Sustainably sourced springtails and isopods work to break down waste, support soil health, and prevent mould buildup.

  • Optional Add-Ons: Lighting, misting systems, and decorative features can be included based on your requirements.
