What Are Vivarium Rooms?

Latin for "place of life," a vivarium is an enclosed area where animals and/or plants can live in conditions similar to their natural habitat. That can be anything from a tarantula cage in a teenager's room, to Biosphere 2.

In the scientific community, vivarium rooms are also referred to as animal research facilities, and their purpose is to house animals and/or plants in a specific, controlled habitat. These kinds of microecosystems are a fundamental facet of observing life under certain conditions, or safely housing animals who are being used for research purposes.

Aspects to Think About When Getting a Vivarium Room in Albuquerque, NM

There are several environmental controls necessary for a well-functioning vivarium room. For your needs in Albuquerque, NM, you need to know that the controlled environment room can properly maintain:

  • Light — Different life forms need different levels and types of lighting that meet their adapted needs. "Cold-blooded" animals need sunlight to keep their bodies warm, while other animals thrive in colder, darker environments. Different bulbs offer different levels and types of heat and light, and your vivarium room may need a controller to replicate light and dark periods.
  • Temperature and Humidity — Similarly, different life forms have adapted to different temperature and humidity levels. Heat can be provided through your facility's system or heat lamps.
  • Ventilation — Ventilation is imperative for circulating air, stopping mold build-up, reducing the proliferation of harmful bacteria, and balancing the ventilation between the holding room and vivarium room. There are numerous exhaust fan options we can fit for your room, depending on your needs.

An organism's physical environment plays a fundamental role in their health. You need a precise vivarium room to guarantee the integrity of both the organisms you're studying and your research in Albuquerque, NM.
