Thanks! They really do bring the scape together:)
I have used your steps for making a terrarium (drainage layer, barrier, substrate) to plant what I believe to be a Desmodium Triflorum exemplary, on a small plastic pot (until I get a proper one for it). It not only is going strong for the 3rd week, it's sprounting new leaves and looking beautiful! Thank you a lot for your instrunctions!

This is probably my favorite yet, it's so simple yet beautiful.
Simple but beautiful. Thank you for the great vid
I thought I was a weirdo for loving moss. Thanks for this!
I love this... I can't seem to find good moss.. Even when I go to the Terrarium store. But, I LOVE your videos. Thank you so much for doing what you do. You're completely amazing. 💝💞💝

How would you recommend sourcing moss? Been using your videos to plan my first terrarium, but I am stuck on where to get my fern moss (It always looks great in your builds!)
almost 200k!
I loved the baby trees, please do a shallow swamp in the future as well and where can i buy spring tails?

Oh, it's an Easter egg. 😊
What do you think about adding little figures and figurines to the terrarium? Like toy action figures? Will it be safe for the terrarium?
I loveMOOOOOOOSSSSSSSSSSSSS😊

I enjoy your videos and have spent this weekend making a vivarium for some geckos we're getting soon (using lots of tips from your vids) Whilst we're waiting for the plants to grow in, do you have any tips for temporary lighting? I'm yet to order the reptile light and heater, so just wondered will a normal led light strip work for the plants for now? Great video and terrarium as always!

@@TerrariumDesigns ooh great thank you 😊 the tank looks ok so far, I've got my fingers crossed it doesn't have any issues. One of the branches that had a nice shape to it when it was dry has gone a bit straight now, which I'm guessing is due to the humidity. Thanks for the lighting tip!
The stone somehow looks like a face to me😅. Anyhow, great build and video as always!

i added springtails to my terrarium but i think they all died 😓 i just don't know why and im nervous because im trying to do bioactive because ive had a mold problem before and i dont want my geckos getting sick. i have two fairly large terrariums (18x18x24) so im wondering if i either didnt add enough springtails or they all died somehow, is it possible they drowned? but my terrarium doesn't look waterlogged because i have a drainage layer so i guess im not sure what to do and i was hoping for some advice?
I'm getting ready to make my first terrarium next month I'm going to use most that been growing around my apartment complex by a stream and collect what I need from nature do you have any advice for me that could help.😊

My best advice it to make sure you don’t over water, less is more:) other then that enjoy making your terrarium!😃
how do you support millipedes ?
can i use inox (stainless steel/rust free metal) mesh instead of window screen mesh? i have this at work and it would not be a problem for me to use a piece

I’ve never used it, but if it’s stainless steel then I don’t see why not. It’s certainly worth a go at least:)

Does the wood not start to mould because of the high humidity?

It can do, but the springtails take care of it in no time:)
Can I use soil instead of your homemade “soil”
I tried making several terrariums from the materials around me
I just want to get really really small and explore the terrarium like a forest adventure. I want to make a adventurers terrarium and palutarium create some edible food in it and explore the small forest while eating my small favourite food relaxing with my imaginary girlfriend 😁
I see
If earth ever becomes too polluted ppl like him will actually just have healthy pieces that they can grow into large forest over time to restore balance
That main rock kinda looks incredulous. What's wrong, buddy?
