Addressing My Next Giant Vivarium while touring UK's Natural History Museum & ZSL Zoo



While waiting for a new season of my Ecosystem Vivarium Series to start, I wanted to talk about my upcoming plans for the series, as well as drop some hints as to what biome my next giant vivarium will be. The video concludes with participation from CA Family in the UK. Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.

    AC Family, after all I've said and shared in this video, can you guess what biome VIV IV will be?

    From what I've seen it's looking like u'll be doing a marine vivarium. I saw another post where u mentioned the problem with having a marine vivarium. A guy in the comments told u who might could help u set that up & if it's gonna be ur last vivarium a marine one would be bad ass that's for sure. Can't wait to see what u choose hun.

    I don't mind worms, but share your aversion to leeches. Ticks and leeches were the stuff of childhood nightmares.

    Sad to see how far the uk has fallen in term's of their native population being displaced and replaced, but your tour of this museum was wonderful!

    Oh man ai hear ya about where u live. I live in the middle of the woods & insects are just a thing there. U can't get rid of the bad ones without getting rid of the good bugs as well. I let the good spiders be & they eat the bad spiders. I've got jumping spiders & wolf spiders doing there things. I've got a pasture on 2 sides of me & woods on the other 2 sides. So cats are a must to keep everything under control outside. Thank u for taking the time to share all this with us. Hope u had a great time.

    Hi! This comment is from my son Kellach (9). He says, “I want to see what's happening with your fire ants or your axolotls. It's been a while since we've seen them.” Thanks!

    Whenever you end up doing research for a marine biome, and if you can manage it, you should try to visit the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta.

    OMG I remember that tarantula wasn’t she like queen of the ants or something like that that’s what you called her when she died you fed her to the fire ants which ended up dying in her hair because they got too exhausted

    @antscanada You already introduced a tarantula into Pantdora.. I believe it was the same ep as Lady Death Strike. It was never mentioned again, unfortunately.

    lol NO. AI is making everything worse, it wastes water, uses tons of energy, pollutes everything… it wont help what so ever. Not only is it plagiarising everything so humans lose their jobs, it's very bad for the environment! and if any ai bros say otherwise they are not educated and just dont care about other people or the planet.

    I’d love to see a desert vivarium… a good balance of scorpions, spiders, lizards, beetles and ants, and 1 or 2 others… That would be insane

    AI isn't going to help us save the planet. They're doing the exact opposite. What can AI do to help the environment when their data centers are already destroying it, and they're just going off of data that we already know?

    Hi Mikey, I just wanted to say a huge thank you for putting this video out. My son is autistic and loves your channel, it is something we can watch together and he will actually snuggle up and talk to me about. We really wanted to come and meet you but it would have been too much for him with the travel and crowds, so thank you so much for making this video so we could kind of come and visit you. Your channel brings so much joy to so many people, thank you for everything you do and for helping me have a better connection to my son.

    Upside down jellyfish dont really move, they tend to be at the bottom of lagoons and mangroves.

    I love that you share the same phobia as my daughter (vermiphobia) and she just can’t stand to look at them at all. She too skips that section of any zoo or animal sanctuary.

    I feel nothing at all seeing spiders, it's the worms that makes my soul want to leave my body. I cant look at them at all and often scroll the the comments while you talk about them on screen. Worms, Maggots, larvae, i hate them all. There's something about their DISGUSTING bodies undulating and pulsating that makes me want to throw up and sends me into a panic attack. I always watch this channel wondering why spider fearers get a warning while i have to get ambushed by repulsive worms!

    Not fair! I suffer and squirm with all your spider stuff and you pass by the worm exhibit? I'm curious about worms and their benefits.

    Dear ants Canada, I recently watched a short video and I have absolutely no clue about it's validity but the sheer idea alone was enough to make me drop what I was doing to ask for you to make this happen. Apparently tarantulas keep frogs as pets to protect their eggs and after the baby's hatch they either keep the frog as a pet or let it go. Please put a frog and a tarantula in one of your vivariums so I can witness this magic.
