I read that true plants in terrarium could be harmful for reptiles, is that true!? I have some true plants in my terrarium and my snake don't seem to have any problem whit them, it is supposed that there is bacteria in plants and that reptiles in captivity dosen't have immunitary system to fight them. I think it could be true, but, why couldn't they develop antybodys against those bacteria!?!?

I want your opinion, do you think it is ok to put plants in terrarium!?

Anyway i didn't buy plants, i plant them from seed into my snake substrat, it couldn't bring any bacteria...
