    244: This Garage-Built Biosphere Creates Its Own Weather | miniBIOTA - AAH

    Josue Gimbernard of miniBIOTA discusses his various tank builds that links with each other, interconnecting energy, water, and nutrients that circulate on their own. We also talk about the story of how he got started into this project and the inspiration behind the different ecosystems. Josue goes into detail on his miniBiota tanks including the Freshwater Lake, The Shoreline, The Coastal, and The Seagrass Meadow Biomes, including their atmospheres, reservoirs, balance in moisture, and temperature/humidity setups. These tanks are incredibly in-depth and detailed in their construction to be as close to outdoor nature as possible and is an episode to tune into if you’re curious about the science behind an ecosystem like these!SHOW NOTES: https://www.animalsathomenetwork.com/244-minibiota/SPONSORS: Visit The BioDude: https://www.thebiodude.com/ Visit Zoo Med Labs here: https://zoomed.com/JOIN US ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/animalsathomeLINKS FROM THE EPISODE:MiniBiota Website: https://www.minibiota.com/MiniBiota YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@minibiota MiniBiota Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/minibiotaMiniBiota Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/miniBIOTAPhotos and Video in Episode:MiniBiota YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/ ⁨@miniBIOTA⁩  We Discuss: 0:00 Introducing Josue Gimberard of MiniBiota 1:05 Coming Up: The Bio Dude 1:41 Coming Up: Zoo Med 2:01 Welcome Josue + His Career Path 7:11 Josue’s Motivations for His Enclosures 10:52 Layout and Components of Josue’s Tanks 14:59 Replicating Ecosystems 16:28 Atmosphere + Reservoir Constructions in the Tanks 21:30 Size of Atmosphere Thoughts 23:18 Cooling or Heating the Atmosphere 29:33 Creating The Rain Effect 32:23 Avoiding Slime Bacteria 33:29 The Bio Dude Substrates + Bug Grub 34:30 The Lake Biome 43:18 The Shoreline Biome 49:30 Balance in Moisture for Terrestrial Biomes 51:31 Soil Depth in Grassland + The Mangrove Forest Biome 59:52 Managing Temperature/Humidity Probes 1:09:48 Potential Salt Problems + Salt Obstacle Course Plans 1:15:22 The Coastal Biome 1:19:13 The Seagrass Meadow Biome 1:23:59 Risk of Salinity Problems + Maintaining Balance 1:25:55 Lighting Systems + Future Lighting Plans 1:30:56 Will The Tanks Ever Be “Finished”? 1:35:15 Zoo Med Jumping Spider Kit 1:36:21 Inspirations + Mental Load of Josue’s Projects 1:45:39 3D Printing Uses 1:50:13 Closing Thoughts

    243: How Big Should a Reptile Enclosure ACTUALLY Be? | Mariah Healey - AAH

    In this episode, I’m joined by Mariah Healey from ReptiFiles to break down how to properly calculate reptile enclosure size, and we also discuss how to provide proper heating for your reptiles. We discuss how to move beyond outdated “minimums,” focusing instead on usable space, thermal gradients, and species-appropriate behavior. Topics include: How to calculate the minimum enclosure sizeWhy enclosure dimensions matter for heat gradientsCommon heating and enclosure mistakesHow size impacts thermoregulation and welfare🎧 Listen to the full episode on YouTube, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.SHOW NOTES: https://www.animalsathomenetwork.com/243-reptifiles/SPONSORS: Visit The BioDude: https://www.thebiodude.com/ Visit Zoo Med Labs here: https://zoomed.com/JOIN US ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/animalsathomeLINKS FROM THE EPISODE:https://reptifiles.com/https://www.instagram.com/reptifiles/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/reptifiles/https://www.youtube.com/@UCwWGfVChrix8yuL0BmMjxSw Photos and Video in Episode:https://www.instagram.com/reptifiles/?hl=en0:00 Intro 2:50 Welcome Mariah 8:46 Reptile Room Update 22:58 ReptiFiles - What is it? & Update 34:53 Zoo Med - Jumping Spider Kit 36:00 Where next for ReptiFiles? 1:01:51 Calculating Reptile Minimum Enclosure Size 1:54:40 Reptile Heating - How to heat a reptile tank? 2:27:23 Best Reptile Basking Surface? 2:47:40 Creating a perfect warm hide 2:51:27 Closing Thoughts

    242: Can You Really Keep Coconut Crabs as a Pet? | Indo - AAH

    Indo joins in this episode to talk all about his various species of crustaceans, including the incredibly interesting Coconut Crab species. Indo dives into al of the care requirements on Coconut Crabs and Vampire Crabs specifically, while also talking about naturalistic enclosures, cohabitation, and various diet needs of crustaceans. We also discuss Indo’s upcoming plans to begin breeding Coconut Crabs, something that nobody thus far has been able to do in captivity. He shares details of his extensive knowledge of the breeding process, the various growth stages of crustaceans, and how he plans on replicating the ocean in order for the breeding project to succeed.

    Project: Herpetoculture with Andis Arietta

    Dr. A. Z. Andis Arietta is a scientist whose work spans the intersection of AI, conservation, and herpetoculture (azandisresearch.com). He earned his PhD from Yale School of the Environment, where his research areas included ecological genomics, amphibian ecophysiology and development, and the ethics of conservation. That scientific and philosophical grounding now informs how he thinks about evidence-based animal care, conservation policy, and the impacts of data infrastructure. Professionally, Andis is a Senior Data Scientist working in machine learning, causal inference, and applied AI. He also teaches graduate courses on Practical AI, research methods, and data visualization, with an emphasis on application in the environmental field. Andis is an active herpetoculturist who runs Holotypica (holotypica.com), a small husbandry-focused venture centered on ethically bred amphibians and reptiles, primarily focused on dart frogs and emerald tree skinks. His work in the hobby prioritizes animal welfare, transparent methods, and helping keepers succeed through education and evidence-based guidance. Across all of his work, Andis is interested in how AI can support conservation and environmental outcomes, including improving decision systems, extracting insight from unstructured data, and strengthening science communication, while remaining clear-eyed about the limitations and risks of these tools.
