Dude this is an incredible tank. I do tree frog paludariums but they never look this good. It is truly a masterpiece.

@@markslatcoff6068I know this was 2 years ago but u can find on morph market depending where you live also do research before buying any animal!!
I really love your build and that you talk about all the errors you made as well how much time it consumes. It really helps me with my own build even if I already did so much wrong ;) Thanks a lot!
Thank you Chris. For anyone interested in doing this. To add to what Chris said about adding water and keeping the sediment down, you can pre-rinse your gravel. This will help wash off any excess chalk on the gravel. I pour my gravel in a pasta strainer and run the water over it.

Yup! Forgot to mention mine were washed pre use but the bigger stones have their share of dirt and dust 😅
I could listen to you talk all day. Such a soothing calm voice. Peaceful!
This tank is incredible. Well done!! I can look at this all day. So relaxing and soothing. Takes your mind off everything and enjoy nature of Amazon rainforest
Dude, aside from how the paludarium looks (With is completely absolutely insane). The tutorial and explanation are so soothing and great! Love to watch this :)
Maan, you are Bob Ross of making new enclosures! Loving every piece of it! I could watch this enclosure the whole European winter!
Omg, those fwogies are suuupercute! I don't even own any animals/reptiles/amphibians and don't plan to in the future and i still just spent the last nearly 23 minutes watching you build and explain how to create a stunning mini habitat... I enjoyed every second of it though 8D Dude that's talent, thank you for the great content 8D
Wow Chris that is absolutely Amazing mate & im gonna give it a try one day soonish... Thanks heaps for these video's & all your vids are awesome.👍
Chris. Your videos are amazing! Great content and you have a way of capturing attention and pleasing I don’t want them to end! Great job great content
Love your vision and commentary. You are definitely one of the best
Just…..WOW! So much inspiration! It’s beautiful! 𓆏💚𓆏💙𓆏🤎𓆏💚𓆏💙𓆏🤎𓆏
Ahhhh been waiting on this. Great as always but this time you've really stepped up🔥🔥❤️
I have this exact same tank with a pump and waterfall (foamed background too!) and your use of the small tanks as overflow is fantastic! if i ever need to rebuilt my tank (or make another one) I'm going to add that feature in! gorgeous setup!
I always enjoy your plant selection. Amazing building!
This is really pretty! I just recently thought about wanting to get frogs, and I’m a long way away from doing this kind of thing, but it’s definitely and inspiration! This is weird to ask, but have you thought about doing like a livestream/long recording of the tank? It’d be really nice to have something like that playing in the background while being able to watch the frogs and aquatic animals being in their environment!
I have that feeling every time I build an enclosure. Just know the animal is gonna destroy my “masterpiece” lol
What a beautiful masterpiece! You are so talented. No wonder you would stare at it all day!
Masterpiece! Wow! Such a great video Chris!
SPEECHLESS! So glad I came across your channel! Beautiful!!!!
Not only are you amazing at making paludariums, but you're an excellent writer as well! "I made a leap of faith, and threw caution to the wind." I see what you did there. :)
You are a master, I'm so impressed!! Great job! I'm in awe.
Great work Chris, that looks incredible!
Another amazingly beautiful build!!!
Stunning build. I've started keeping and breeding Arena Blanca dart frogs andlove watching other people's builds. One of the most natural and stunning builds I've seen. Love it mate 👌
This is outstanding! What a beautiful masterpiece!
You know I’ve been building enclosures for 50 years started as a young boy using hardware cloth and glass ... now I too use expanding foam and all the great stuff that is available ! But I’ve not had any animals skinned scaled feathers or hairy destroy a enclosure I’ve made I build it for the pets I have or will have . And if you get it right you reap rewards like babies or interaction that’s rarely seen ! Too me that’s a successful enclosure that your pet feels at home in . Great job Chris!
Awesome paludarium and great production as always Chris
Amazing job Chris!!!
Incredible achievement well done. I do love listening to your voice its very clear and precise, your English is amazing. 😊
Incredible work. It was very therapeutic watching it ♥️
Just: Wow! Stunning design. So beautiful. You are very talented.
Well done dude. A incredible piece of art, and a really good video. I love the way you explain everythig. Thanks for sharing.
l loved hearing all of your personal thoughts about the process. I built my own small paludarium last month and could relate to much of what you said.
This setup is just stunning
Chris, Your videos are amazing and so educational, thank you my friend! Ace
I love your tank set up! Beautiful!
Looks amazing bud thank you for the build
Super awesome tank! ❤ It's a masterpiece. 😮

What a spectacular build, congrats wow!
So beautiful... It literally brought me to tears.
😭 This is the most beautiful vivarium I’ve ever seen! Bravissimo ❤️
What a fantastic work! 🤩
Beautiful job. Your voice is perfect for narration.
Thats so cool dude! Looking forward to see more Projects! Subscribed
BEAUTIFUL CHRIS!!
So glad you added fish
Great Stuff Pond and Stone is my go to for the black foam. I usually get it off Amazon and it's worked magic in my dart frog enclosure
Loooove your style of videos man! Keep it up!
Very talented ! Great job !
This is one of the most beautiful things I've seen on KZread.
I’m watching this before bed and I feel like I’m being read a book something about the expression in his voice and it’s honestly really nice
Thank's Chris❕ The tank is beautiful❗💖I love it. 🌼👩🦳🌼M.💚🌠
Hey Chris. This is SO inspiring. Thank you so much for taking the time to record this epic process! I wanted to ask you - how do you keep the orchids growing in these conditions long term? I read that some orchids need a 'rest period' where it's much cooler. Do you remove them from the tank for a while to achieve this? Once again - you're the best!
Great looking tank big man!
Hiya, new subscriber here, i just searched frogs! Wicked build!! So glad I found you!!
your content creation is god tier!! I want to see more
you should definitely make more videos! love them.
What a beautiful set up
OMG! A true living masterpiece.
Amazing and love the frogs
Wow looks amazing job well done
Wow that tank is beautiful Chris. Carl
Wow! My dream set up right there!
Absolutely stunning
It's a very nice paludarium ,congratulations.
Great video. Keep up the good work.
Wow, looks great! I love this content
It looks soooo good! I don't understand how you make it look soooo amazing!! I have set up two bioactive, one humid 5 gallon for a madigascar hissing cockroach, and one arid 40 gallon as a temporary set up for my rescue beardy. I am soon going to set up a 12x12x12 inch exo terra ( for who know what. Lol ) and a 18x18x24 for a pair of dart frogs and a pair of mourning geckos. I am so excited to start, but kinda nervous to mess them up...
This is the best Paludarium i’ve seen ❤
Awesome work!
Man that built is a masterpiece.
I was right. You DO have the hands of an artist!
Amazing. Simply amazing.
I've never seen wiring and tubing hidden in plain sight with silicone and moss/sand/coir... which is strange, given that it looks pretty good and makes maintenance on the pump so much easier. Would love to see an update on this tank in the future.

It is much easier if you make a 'tube' for it before foaming, where water can drain in. That way you don't need to hide the pump/tube/cables baceuse they are under the background foam and you can pull all of the stuff out if zou need to change or service the pump.
Honestly think that this channel is one of the most incredible hidden gems in the reptile community. I can't wait to see this channel grow and love the videos. How do you get your mosses? I can't really find a reliable source where I am, I may just be looking in the wrong place. Have a good one!

Its beautiful!!
Très beau Aquarium faut de la Patience aussi Félicitations BRAVO❤❤😊🎉
Looks really good man! : )
Love your passion n great tank looks like the one at Baltimore national aquarium
Beautiful.
Beautifull set up.
Beautiful tank!
Man you sound like ants Canada, you are great keep doing what you do, you seem like you are passionate and that’s a great quality man
Wow that’s amazing your awesome
keep up the good work your awesome
If you don't mind me asking where did you buy your frogs from? After seeing this it has inspired me to do something similar with my current setup and I would love to know how you got those amazing frogs!
Those exo terra mesh lids will rust right out. At least on the older ones, maybe the newer ones or plaudarium ones use a better material. Very nice build btw!
Nice setup only critique I have is those foggers can really heat up the water that I’ve noticed so be mindful with those
Love the jewel orchid
Beautiful!!!
Hi there, could you please give us an update on this paludarium? I'm really interested how it evolved during the last year.
Very interesting 👍
Thanks great job I will start making my own but no idea how to get the clear plastic cups can i used any foam expanding?
Awesome video
That’s an amazing build. You seem to use a lot of orchids in your builds. Do you propagate them yourself? What kind are they?
That is amazing.
