Go Big or Go Home Part 3. "The Plants" -Planting a Large Format Vivarium with Alex Menke
Show Notes

Have you ever dreamed of building a giant, naturalistic vivarium for your frogs? What does it take to construct, scape, plant and stock a 48 cubic foot vivarium (4ft by 2ft by 6ft)? In this  4 part series we will build a hypothetical large format vivarium from the ground up and address the challenges and rewards that go along with it!

In this episode (Part 3.), I am joined by Alex Menke of Frog Daddy and we discuss some of the plant choices that are appropriate for a Large Format Vivarium. We also discuss the effects of a large tank on plant growth, when to avoid larger plants, and how to plan a build that will grow in successfully without being over run.
