Throwback Thursday pic - this one was taken back in 2011 of a 210 gallon Vivarium. This build was featured in Reptiles magazine back in 2012. The magazine included author bios with contact info for articles and the amount of emails with questions and build requests led to the founding of Vivariums In The Mist. Truthfully I don’t even like the plant selection or some of the hardscape material choices but it’s an important build in our timeline. Thanks to Reptiles Magazine (and Russ Case who has since passed) for featuring the article and several others I wrote for them in the past.

A quick stop at Kaaterskill Waterfalls after a long weekend. Ready for spring?

Our tables at today’s REXPO in Rochester, NY.

It’s been 2 weeks since the initial planting in this 350 gallon dart frog exhibit. We were back today to add some additional plants and added a little moss to get that started. Dwarf white isopods and springtails were also added. We will be back in approx one month to check on this Vivarium, though it will take several more months to really get going and fill in. In addition we are about one month away from being able to announce the location of this Vivarium display. Stay tuned…

What is your favorite botanical? One of our favs is the Monkey Pod! Pro tip, create a “Mossy Monkey Pod” by adding a little moss inside the pod. Check out our Etsy shop for a BIG selection of botanicals for your aquarium & Vivarium. https://www.etsy.com/shop/VivariumsInTheMist?ref=shop-header-name&listing_id=1610893277&from_page=listing

Small water feature in the 350 gallon dart frog exhibit that we started planting yesterday. The water feature is made primarily from feather rock and this tank is drilled with the water being recirculated and filtered via a sump underneath. Moss will be added next time to soften up the look. Stay tuned.

Rainy day here in New York…

Delivery day for this 350 gallon public dart frog display. Just a little teaser video, we won’t be able to reveal where this one will be on display for a while. Update pics of the build coming soon though. Stay tuned.

A look back at our 210 gallon vivarium that was built into the wall. This one was up and running since 2012. It was removed last year to make room for botanical storage. Never have enough space!

Our Story

Vivariums In The Mist is a local New York based company specializing in planted vivarium displays.

At Vivariums In The Mist the design and construction of Vivariums, Terrariums & Paludariums is more than a service we offer, it’s our passion!

It’s our goal to create living ecosystems that are not only works of art but functional as well. Whether for a private residence, place of business, private collection, zoo, botanical garden or anywhere else we strive to bring the jungle indoors.

In an increasingly urban world what better way to connect with nature then bringing a slice of the jungle indoors. Observing nature and therefore connecting with nature has proven to impact our wellbeing by reducing stress and anxiety.
