Reptilia 40 - Terrarium Planting

Reptilia 123 - Planting of poison dart frog terrariums Contents: Cover story: Planting poison dart frog terrariumsPoison dart frog terrariums can be real gems. Not only because of the "jewels from the rainforest" themselves – but also because of the rainforest around them. Poison dart frogs come to us from biotopes that are also home to countless attractive tropical plants, many of which are available to us and can be cultivated excellently. The experienced terrarium plant specialist Beat Akeret explains in the cover story of this REPTILIA exactly which plants are suitable for poison dart frog terrariums, so that these not only look great and meet the needs of the frogs, but even conjure up an authentic Latin American rainforest section in the living room.Also in REPTILIA No. 123Keeping and breeding one of the most mystical reptiles of all: the Bornean earless monitor in the terrariumDanger in the magic of blossoms: crab spidersThe great trek 3: with REPTILIA editor-in-chief Heiko Werning from coast to coast through the south of the USAand much more 4          editorial             6          MAGAZINE             14        DATES             16        WESTERN HERP PERSPECTIVES                                    Only in America                                    By B.

The Pet Factory - Decorative foliage The Pet Factory decorative foliage - holm oak leaves for natural decoration of terrariums. Oak leaves for terrariums pH lowering in aquariumsFood for shrimps for rearing poison dart frog tadpoles has an antifungal and disinfecting effect also as decoration for small mammal terrariums 1 liter corresponds to approx. 15 grams When used in aquariums, the pH-reducing properties must be taken into account and the foliage can also be used for breeding poison dart frog tadpoles. Decorative foliage has an antifungal and disinfecting effect. Tip:It is also ideal as decoration for small mammal terrariums, as it is only gnawed on a little. It simply does not taste good!

Terraria 54 - Mosses, ferns and other spore plants in the terrariumEuropean pond turtleTasmaniaContents:Cover story: Mosses, ferns and other spore plants in the terrariumIn 1892, the English physician Dr N.B. Ward realised that ferns could be cultivated in closed glass containers. This gave rise to Victorian plant display cases planted with ferns and mosses - the forerunners of today's terrariums. However, mosses, ferns and other spore plants are more than just decorative accessories in humid terrariums. Their reproduction by means of alternation of generations, which can also be observed in the terrarium, is particularly interesting. In addition to many interesting aspects of spore plants, the next issue will also contain numerous tips and tricks on how these plants can thrive in the terrarium and how they can best be kept together with reptiles and amphibians.ContentsTerritorialHerpetoramaNew study by the Federal Agency for Nature Conservation: What really jeopardises biodiversity in Germany LookupThorn Devil: The Variable Rain FrogCultural successors: tortoises in ViennaWhat did the first snakes look like?Leafhoppers: In the NewsCover storyWitnesses of the dinosaur era - about terrarium plants with generational changeBeat AkeretMosses - unrecognised dwarfs among terrarium plantsBeat AkeretEpiphytic ferns in the terrariumBeat AkeretNeither moss nor fern.

Reptilia 117 - Amphibian raritiesFlooridaNight lizardIberian adderContents: Cover story: Amphibian raritiesIn all amphibian groups there are species which, for various reasons, are not kept as frequently in terrariums as fire salamanders, dyer frogs etc.: some species are only imported rarely and in small numbers, some have no lobby, others are highly sought after but not easy to breed.In the cover story of this issue of REPTILIA, we present such rarities in detail - with captivating photos and detailed reports on extremely pleasing breeding successes. We also visit a project in South America in which species sought after by terrarists are selectively propagated - and which simultaneously promotes science, nature conservation and environmental education.EditorialMAGAZINEDATES WESTERN HERP PERSPECTIVESThe fate of books, part 1B.
