This is really not designed to be for specific animals, if you are looking for what should be in your vivarium for a specific animal, this isn't the best source of knowledge, however it is a good source and has a lot of useful information in it just the same.

vivaria designs

this book breifly covers all reptiles. it is very helpful to know the dos and donts of reptile care.

This book was great!

I really thought this was a great book! It would be great for anyone that wants to start a vivaria. It even had a list of plants to use for a live tank, and alot of books don't have those.

a manual long needed in the reptile and amphibian keeper hobby

The modern-day reptile and amphibian keeper has long needed a sound book covering the topic of basic vivaria design with a generalist approach. Previous to this, there have been two excellent books written by "the vivarist" himself, Phillipe de Vosjoli, with one book treating desert vivaria design and the other teaching us how to artistically creat a living vivarium for snakes. Mr. Walls, another expert, has provided the all-around beginning and intermediate herp keeper with the basics of cages, restraint, and several tried-and-true, fundamental vivarium designs covering ever major biome (e.g. desert, rainforest, woodland, etc.) where herps are found on planet earth. This book was written with practically every type of common pet reptile or amphibian in mind. This is a must have for every pet store owner who wants to display and sell herps, and for every young lad or lass who is lucky enough to have parents who will let them keep and enjoy God's creatures in their home. If you want to become a zoo keeper when you grow up, learn the basics that are taught in this book. If you want the little pet that you brought home to thrive, do the same. I believe this book is a manifestation of the growing sophistication of the hobby. I would, however, love to see an author tackle a much more in-depth, large-scale approach to the subject. I'm sure that there are some zoo keepers who could teach us how to build some amazing, detail-oriented, half-a-room-sized vivaria.
