... having your very own mini-rainforest in your own bedroom!!! Complete with lightning, thunder and rain! (PS. Can you spot the little froggy?)





You can DIY the entire setup yourself (takes lots of money, space, trial-and-error, and patience; but you can customize the paludarium vivarium project to your own budget and personal liking), alternatively if you're really wealthy but also really lazy, you can pay these Singaporean professionals to set one (or more!) up for you :

Fyi, a paludarium vivarium = terrarium vivarium + aquarium vivarium
 
I think this makes more sense when you are living in a temperate climate country.

Why do you need a rainforest in your house when you live in the rainforest anyway?

It is like if I keep a small tank which makes snow abs call in my mini winter wonderland in my house when I live in Calgary.

If you've the time, money and inclination, you could setup a series of paludarium vivariums across all climate zones, by no means does it have to be limited to a rainforest climate.

That said, the added appeal of a mini-rainforest (which would appeal to anyone, regardless of which climate zone you reside in), includes the rich flora and fauna (eg. frogs, fishes, etc, larger variety of flora & fauna than all other climatic zones combined) as well as the lightning, thunder, rain and wind effects.

Sure you can have these same weather effects set up in a snow or desert paludarium, but it wouldn't be anywhere as romantic, mysterious mystical or magical as when these effects (lightning, thunder, rain, wind, etc) are applied to a night rainforest scene, especially enjoyed within the comforts of your own air-conditioned bedroom at night.
