What is a Vivarium Room? The word "vivarium" comes from the Latin words for "place for" and "living things." In short,. That can include anything from a tarantula cage in a kid's room, to the dolphinarium at Sea World. For research purposes, vivarium rooms can also be called animal research facilities, and they are used to maintain animals and/or plants under conditions simulating a natural environment. These microecosystems are crucial for observing plants or animals in a specific environment, or safely housing animals who are being used for research purposes. Aspects to Think About When Purchasing a Vivarium Room in San Francisco, CA There are several environmental controls necessary to keep a vivarium room functioning properly. For your needs in San Francisco, CA, you'll need to ensure your controlled environment room is capable of meeting them all: Light — Different organisms have grown accustomed to different levels of light and heat. Reptiles, amphibians, and other animals need sunlight to warm themselves, while other animals thrive in colder, darker environments. Simulating the right light can take different types of bulbs, and your vivarium room may need a controller to simulate light and dark periods. Temperature and Humidity — In a similar vein, different organisms can only survive with a temperature and humidity similar to their natural habitat. Heat can be sourced from your facility's system or special lamps. Air Flow — Proper air flow is essential for circulating air, preventing mold growth, reducing the growth of harmful bacteria, and stabilizing the ventilation between the vivarium room and other areas of your facility.
