I Built a Giant Treetop Rainforest Canopy Vivarium

I created the ultimate tree canopy vivarium, called Orchadia, a world of trees, an extension vivarium to my first giant cloud rainforest vivarium, Pantdora. The whole biological project of executing a canopy habitat was extremely challenging to construct, requiring me to stretch my terrarium-building skills. There were unique obstacles I faced creating this tree layer, which science knows contains the highest concentration of life in the rainforest. I researched, constructed, and even got a tip from a special creature already living within the vivarium. Hope you enjoy this Episode 13, Season 2 of my Ecosystem Vivarium Series. Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.

Fluted swallowtails would be cool. Any species of Aristolochia Swallowtail would be awesome. However, for the ecologic niche you’re describing, I’d go with the moth butterfly, whose life cycle I find equally as interesting. They predate and take advantage of tree ants nests, if the time is right I could see the potential in this environment but like others said it’s a chance that might not really be worth taking

The Way you edit and Narrate your videos reminds me of watching the Old national Geographic Specials that would air all the time when I was a kid. Instead of Lions, Tigers, Elephants, sharks and the Antarctic, it is a fascinating and educational look at some of the smallest animals and their habitats. Thank you for sharing your hard work and passion with us.

“Et in Arcadia ego”🌎Greetings, Pantdora creator, and beautiful work. In bonsai, we encourage aerial roots in our banyan ficus three ways: 1) Limiting water to the rootball. 2) Increasing the ambient moisture in the crown/air with a humidifier. 3) The best and most fun - cut a slit up a plastic straw and trim it to fit so as propped between a branch/trunk and the soil. Inside the plastic straw is now a humidity chamber and a root node will activate and grow down the straw into the ground. Once established, we remove the straw. With larger material, any hollow plastic tubing that is pre-sliced will work but you might want to use black or paint it to match the surroundings until a natural root forms. The other methods will have multiple random aerial roots, this method allows for strategic placement of single roots. [I once made a large split-tank vernal pool with mole salamanders for teaching kids about wetlands, keeping the layers of balance is so hard!]

This has probably been said *a lot* on this channel. But Normally this stuff doesn't really interest me, but this is, honestly, *better* than any nature documentary produced by much bigger studios. The storylines make it interesting and the constantly evolving "cast of characters" adds a level of intrigue to each episode making it feel more like a dramedy tv show than a nature documentary. I never thought I'd watch videos like this, let alone subscribe and look forward to the next episode every week. I never thought that when I first followed during the early days of Pantdora that it would evolve to include a 2nd, and possibly multiple other vivariums in the future. I never thought we'd go from simple ants and other various bugs/arachnids to literal mini dragons and dinosaurs. But here we are.

Love the look, but I think the reason you might have been struggling with the design is the balance of open space. On the lower level you have it well "grounded", but in the canopy you filled the lower space; but a canopies' space is more like an umbrella. It should be more top heavy with negative space below to create the sense of a drop or emptiness. Still far better than anything I have ever done.

I’ve been following you for longer than I can remember, maybe close to 10 years now, and still, nothing compares to your channel. I’m a big arachnid nerd though, and I would absolutely love to see you do a Monocentropus balfouri colony. The only tarantula that has true communal traits imbedded into their behavior, and on top of that they’re prolific webbers with a beautiful grey/beige and blue coloring. I just feel like a really cool balfouri colony could be right up your alley, and if you did an enclosure for them I know you’d knock it out of the park. Since essentially all spiders and tarantulas are cannibalistic, it’s simply one of the coolest things in the world to me to have a large colony that thrives naturally in a communal setting. Regardless carry on brotha, it’s been a pleasure watching all your videos over the years.

Orcadia is stunning. I know that science Always talks about the four layers of the forest, but it feels like they overlook the masses of life that thrives under the soil. They always stop at the forest floor, but without the life below the soil what's above is doomed. As an ant-man I think you appreciate that as well.

You've done a really amazing job with this one! The only thing I can think of that would make it better is if you threaded a large branch between the two vivariums to make them feel more like a single enclosure. I'm excited to see how these two spaces interact with eachother!

Good grief! One minute the craftspeople are constructing the tank…. Next minute the canopy is in situ! I’m in awe. I actually voted for the canopy so I’m delighted, I feel like I had a teeny tiny itsy bitsy hand in its creation. Oh the orchids…. I live in NZ, some of the big trees, like kauri can sustain dozens of life forms in their canopies. Birds, insects, plants, fungi…..
