The Viv Bioactive is a locally owned and operated exotic pet shop in Bozeman, Montana. Founded in 2021, this vibrant shop and its talented staff offer a fun shopping experience teeming with all manner of responsibly-sourced reptiles, amphibians, invertebrate and aquatic pets. We aren't even exaggerating—you can see for yourself on their equally vibrant Facebook and Instagram pages!

With their strong focus on captive-bred, ethically sourced exotics, above-average pet care, and all things bioactive, The Viv is truly a pet store after our hearts. While their specialty is freshwater aquatics, with fish being some of their best-sellers, they also offer a wide selection of terrestrial pets, including some of our own frogs, lizards, and arthropods.

In addition to their wide selection of pets and supplies, they offer custom vivariums, special ordering, free in-store water testing, and round-the-clock advice. They foster their local hobbyist community through a variety of educational classes and interactive programs. And they even have event space available for birthday parties.
