Thanks for your videos! If you were to setup a closed terrarium that should live endlessly without interfering what soil would you use?

How did u make the cork on a stick thing?? It looks really helpful

How do you find the growth with a wooden lid where the light can't get through directly and a lamp overhead?

I’m keeping under some leds which angle inwards so light enters through the front so hopefully it won’t be a problem😃

I've heard the bottom part of the moss that you cut off can be used in place of sphagnum moss in the the substrate mix. Is this true? If not, is there another good use for that bottom part, or does it just get thrown away?

Can you skip the orchid bark for the soil mix? Or is there an alternative choice? Because I can't find it in my town.

Love your videos, quick Q though, as a beginner the substrate mix looks like it could be quite expensive "to just have a go", is there a ready mix that you'd recommend?

Cool

Can you make a video on how to trim the plants and mosses?

Good idea! I’ll work on it😃

Looks good. I've made ecospheres on my channel. Like your designs 🙂

Yes that sounds like it would work just fine:)

Love the video! Question. I can't source Orchid bark locally, and I don't want to order online if I can help it (not patient when it comes to mail lol) is there anything else I could substitute it that would do the same as the orchid bark?

Thanks! Any bark chips tend to be a good substitute, fir tree bark chips are a common alternative. You can even find some bark, chop it up & use that😃

I made a terrarium based off of one of your previous videos but I have a question. Inside the rocks and sticks are both visibly wet/saturated, is this a sign that there’s too much moisture in it or it that okay?

Great to hear! It could be, but it’s hard to tell without seeing it. Feel free to send me a pic of it on insta & I’ll be able to help better😃

Where should I buy the plants

Good video. 1 question does the plants roots not get stuck in the mesh ?

They can do over time, but they are not too difficult to get out if you need to

My cushion moss turned brown and died. Any tips? Is it possible for a light to be too strong? The moss was in a gecko enclosure

@TerrariumDesigns

Yes lighting an be too strong especially for moss. If moss is reviving too much light it will begin to aped pale & discoloured. However another reason for yellow moss is overwatering

How much does it cost to make something like this?

what other creatures can be added in a self sustaining terrarium?

@TerrariumDesigns

Good question! As you say in the video springtails are a great choice to start of with. If your terrarium is big enough you can begin to add things like isopods, millipedes & other small bugs & critters:)

@@TerrariumDesigns maybe a little outside of your youtube channel, but do you know how to create a self sustaining ecosphere that has shrimp? or is even a vampire crab possible?

I have some experience keeping cherry shrimp so a ecosystem built for them would be fun! Haven’t kept vampire crabs before but maybe that will be a project for the future😃

how abt some HOLES on the lid for air circulation
