About AquaTerraLife

Built around curiosity for the natural world.

AquaTerraLife is an independent project exploring amphibians, reptiles, their biology and husbandry — alongside digital projects inspired by nature, conservation and other practical ideas.

The project

From keeping animals to documenting what I learn.

AquaTerraLife grew from a long-standing interest in amphibians, reptiles and naturalistic animal husbandry. Over the years, keeping and breeding different species has produced observations, photographs, videos and practical experience that are worth documenting and sharing.

What began primarily as video documentation has gradually developed into a broader project. This website brings together species information, husbandry and breeding experience, practical guides, videos and independently developed apps.

01

Observe

Careful observation is central to understanding animals. Long-term husbandry can reveal individual behaviour, preferences and interactions that are easily missed in brief encounters.

02

Document

Experiences become more useful when they are documented. Species accounts combine practical observations with information from published sources while keeping the distinction between them clear.

03

Share

AquaTerraLife makes this material accessible through articles, photographs, videos and practical resources for others interested in amphibians, reptiles and their care.

Behind AquaTerraLife

Hi, I'm Nils.

AquaTerraLife is a personal project that brings together several of my interests: biology, herpetology, animal husbandry and software development.

My background in biology shapes how I approach the natural-history side of the project, while many of the husbandry and breeding observations presented here come from years of keeping animals myself.

I also develop the apps presented under AquaTerraLife, using software as another way to turn ideas and interests into practical projects.
