In this way, the water guided by the waterway can flow into the pit 40, and the water quality of the pool is adjusted to ensure the high-quality aquatic environment of amphibians and to make the water in the pool have sufficient oxygen content.

[0028] In one embodiment, the structural layer 30 includes a soil layer 31 and a gravel layer 32 disposed on the soil layer 31. The thickness of the soil layer 31 is 10 cm, and the thickness of the gravel layer 32 is less than that of the soil layer 31. The gravel layer 32 is laid on the soil layer 31, and the gravel layer 32 can prevent the soil layer 31 from being too wet and soft, and can also facilitate amphibians and reptiles to crawl.

[0029] In one embodiment, green plants such as kidney ferns, maidenhair ferns, staghorn ferns, mosses, algae, etc. are planted on the rock layer 60, and a drain outlet is provided at the top of the rock layer 60, and the drain outlet is connected to the water replenishment system 70. Specifically, the water replenishment system 70 can be a water pump, or other structure that can lift water to replenish the pool. When the pool is short of water, the water replenishment system 70 works, and by opening a drain outlet on the rock layer 60, the flow of water can be guided so that the water can flow smoothly into the pool along the waterway to replenish the pool; a water circulation filtration system is provided at the drain outlet to circulate and wash the water in the original pool. Specifically, the water circulation filtration system 110 is a water circulation filter. Such an overall structural design can present a three-dimensional ecological display environment.

[0030] In one embodiment, the landscaping system further includes a lighting module 80, which is disposed at the inner top of the frame 10. The lighting module 80 is used to illuminate the amphibians and reptiles based on their living habits, and to supplement light for the amphibians and reptiles. Specifically, the lighting module 80 includes an incandescent lamp 81 and a warm lamp 82, the incandescent lamp 81 is used to provide light for the amphibians and reptiles, and the warm lamp 82 is used to keep the amphibians and reptiles warm. For example, at night or in cold weather, the lighting module 80 can meet the use requirements of the landscaping system. Furthermore, the incandescent lamp 81 is disposed at the inner top of the frame 10, and the warm lamp 82 is below the incandescent lamp 81 and close to the rock layer 60, that is, the incandescent lamp 81 is farther away from the amphibians than the warm lamp 82, and the incandescent lamp 81 provides corresponding light within a certain distance, while the warm lamp 82 is closer to the amphibians, which can make the amphibians on the structural layer 30, the tree body 50 and the rock layer 60 closer to the heat source for convenient heating.

[0031] In one embodiment, in order to ensure that the landscaping system can provide a suitable environment for amphibians and reptiles to live conveniently, that is, the landscaping system also needs to meet the humidity requirements of amphibians and reptiles, the landscaping system further includes a spray device 90, which is disposed at the top of the frame 10. The spray device 90 can be a spray head or a shower structure, that is, it can meet the humidity requirements of the air in the landscaping system.

[0032] In order to make the humidity and temperature in the living environment of amphibians and reptiles more suitable, a detection device is also provided in the middle position of the frame 10. The detection device is used to detect the temperature and humidity in the air. The detection device is electrically connected to the warm lamp 82 and the spray device 90. Specifically, the detection device can be a thermometer probe and a hygrometer probe, and can be electrically connected to the central control system. If the detection device detects that the humidity or temperature needs to be adjusted, that is, when there is a deviation from the set temperature and humidity, the detection device sends a signal and feeds back to the central control system. The central control system controls the warm lamp 82 to work or the spray device 90 to work or both to work at the same time. In this way, the automatic adjustment of the temperature and humidity in the landscaping system is achieved.

[0033] In one embodiment, a water purifier 120 is disposed at the bottom of the pit 40. The water in the pool is submerged in the water purifier 120, and the water in the pool is purified by the water purifier 120, so that the water quality in the pool can be kept up to standard. When it is connected, the water purifier 120 is not always purifying, and the working time of the water purifier can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0034] In one embodiment, an air processing module 100 is further provided on the frame 10, and the air processing module 100 is provided near the top of the frame 10. The air processing module 100 is a fresh air and air purification system installed on one side of the main frame. By providing the air processing module 100 to introduce fresh air into the frame 10 and purify the air in the frame 10, the air circulation in the landscaping system can be maintained and harmful bacteria can be isolated, thereby ensuring the health of animals and tourists; the air processing module 100 is controlled by a motor, and there is a separate control switch at the main switch.

[0035] The rear end of the frame 10 is provided with a door, which is close to the inner side of the logistics channel (not the tourist display surface), through which the breeder can place and take away the animals, or feed the animals through the food throwing port. During the operation, the breeder needs to wear long-sleeved gloves and hold pliers to prevent the animals from escaping and attacking the operator.

[0036] It is important to understand that the amphibians and reptiles selected for the display area of ​​the landscape system include: frogs, including spotted-legged pan-tree frogs, large green stink frogs, terrestrial frogs, black-rimmed toads, and marsh water frogs; snakes, including green snakes (which mainly feed on insects and do not feed on frogs); lizards, including chameleon tree lizards and beautiful thorny lizards; turtles, including black-necked turtles and spotted water turtles; the animals in the above display list do not have a predator-prey relationship and can live together in this space to better demonstrate the animal ecological diversity of the landscape system. The above-mentioned frogs and turtles mainly live in the bottom water, mud and rock areas, while snakes and lizards mainly move around in tree branches and green plants.

[0037] Earthworms can be raised in the soil layer 31 to degrade the feces of amphibians and reptiles and accelerate decomposition. The earthworms are placed before other animals to allow the animals to adapt to the environment. The earthworms can also make the soil layer 31 softer.

[0038] Green plants such as ferns and mosses can use the feces of amphibians and reptiles as fertilizer to grow. The landscaping system should be put into the animal display after 50% of the green plants and trees have been planted and survived, and the entire landscaping system has been debugged and operated normally. This can reduce the interference of later transformations on animals and cause stress.

[0039] The mixed symbiotic environment ecological landscaping system simulates the living environment of animals in the wild, improves the welfare of amphibians and reptiles in captivity, makes the display more ecological and natural, brings an immersive experience to tourists, helps tourists to more realistically understand the habitat of animals in the wild, and enhances the effect of popular science publicity.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some of the technical features therein.
