In this  4 part series we will build a hypothetical large format vivarium from the ground up and address the challenges and rewards that go along with it!In this episode (Part 1.) I am joined by Bill Rodman of In Situ Ecosystems and we discuss the creation of, and engineering  behind, his large format vivarium, the Orinoco Grande.
