Hello to you all.
I found this forum on the internet and i thought this would be a great place to learn more about keeping garters, as I am educating myself, prior to purchasing my first garter snakes.

I have several questions, but lets start with two of them:

I have been told that some fish species contains thiaminase, which breaks down the vitamine B1 in the snake, which in the long run, will result in a lack of B1 and thereby disease. Do any of you guys know where I can find a list or something, over some of the species of fish, that does or does not contain thiaminase?

My second question is about the terrarium/vivarium, whatever.
How do you keep your garters, and which problems have you come across, in connection with the chosen vivarium design?

I'm looking forward to being a part of this forum, as I read some of you guys posts and it was quite interesting.
