Looking to improve my track record with bromeliads. I have not lost one, but they tend to lose their color and grow very slowly. On top my my vivarium (an 18x18x36 skyscraper) I have a Naturalistic Terrarium Hood by ZooMed. What kinds of bulbs would you recommend to enhance the color in these...
Had a great time yesterday. Made an impulse purchase: Mexican King Snake. My wife has dealt with snakes in the past, but this is my first. Hopefully Gifford likes his new home!
Hey there!
So, I have never been to one of these before, but I plan to attend tomorrow's event. Is this something that I need to get to when the doors open, or can you show up later on throughout the day? Do I miss a lot if I don't arrive early? What can I expect.

I use the DI portion of my filter for saltwater tanks. Generally not necessary for fish only set ups, but if you are doing a reef tank with live coral it is very helpful.
DI water should not be necessary. Unless you use products such as RO Right, it will sap the minerals out of your chameleon. We can't drink it and neither should they.
Hello!
I have a quick question. I made the mistake of filling my mister with tap water as opposed to RO water when my dad was borrowing my unit (he's setting up a saltwater tank). Needless to say, I have water marks all over Irwin's enclosure. I have used the API Safe & Clean product for...
