ya what jbradt said. It really varies, you could have something as simple as a box with a light on top, or a terrarium with humidifier, ventilation, timers, etc.
Are you looking to just grow CP's? You could just grow them in a bare-bottom tank. Glass tank, glass lid, light -- that's it. Or did you want to keep things like dart frogs, as well as CP's? If you are looking to keep a terrarium with substrate, water features, frogs/snakes/ect, then you might want to sign up for www.dendroboard.com, a forum geared towards keeping dart frogs and other herps in realistic environments.
If the OP is wanting to go that way, I STRONGLY suggesting joining dendroboard and seeing what others have done and checking youtube for tutorials. I tried a vivarium once and it didn't turn out the way I wanted. Carefully plan and build your vivarium slowly!!! It can't be achieved overnight. It will takes months of work to get it exactly how you want, but the payout is worth the work.
A terr can be as simple as a plastic or glass bowl. As others have said, it all depends on what you want to use it for, functionallity verse decorative, as well as how much time and money you plan to invest in its creation.
If you REALLY want to short circuit your keyboard with drool -- Google image: "Dutch Vivariums" & "Dutch Vivaria". There are some mind blowingly awesome vivs out there!
Wow holly smokes that first viv is flipping awesome pineapple! I am in the process of doing a 55 gallon long and want it to look like that. Wow I am drooling.
What did you google to find that pine?
