What is a Vivarium Room?

The term "vivarium" comes from the Latin words for "place for" and "living things." In short,. That can include anything from a small aquarium in a teenager's room, to the dolphinarium at Sea World.

For research purposes, vivarium rooms can also be called animal research facilities, and their purpose is to keep animals and/or plants in a specific, controlled ecosystem. These kinds of microecosystems are crucial for observing life in a specific environment, or humanely housing animals who are being tested for research purposes.

Aspects to Keep in Mind When Getting a Vivarium Room in San Diego, CA

There are a variety of environmental controls necessary for a well-functioning vivarium room. For your research purposes in San Diego, CA, you need to know that the controlled environment room can properly sustain:

  • Light — Different organisms need different levels and types of lighting that meet their adapted needs. Ectotherms need sunlight to keep their bodies warm, while other life forms 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, some animals cannot handle high humidity and temperature, while others need it to thrive. Heat can be provided through your facility's system or heat lamps.
  • Air Flow — Proper air flow is crucial for circulating air, preventing mold build-up, preventing the spread of hazardous bacteria, and stabilizing the ventilation between the vivarium room and other areas of your facility. There are numerous exhaust fan options available, depending on what works best for you.

An organism's habitat plays a fundamental role in their health. You need an impeccable vivarium room to ensure the integrity of both the organisms you're studying and your research in San Diego, CA.
