You can put inside more plants for ricreate a piace of forest .. also create a small waterfall for riproduce a piece of wood. A lot of fern or other plants . I love a lot put inside a number of insects or arthropods. Piece of food like strawberry or other...

As someone who primarily listens to videos on KZread, I think your shift from text-based to voice-based videos was a good choice.

I've watched quite a few of your videos now and I always prefer your voiceovers. You have a fun sense of humor that works well in the video. Love it and good luck!

i always come here to watch my favorite terrarium video

After binge watching your entire catalog in 2 days (I’m a busy gal) the voice overs! Love them! I haven’t laughed this much or this hard for the longest time!

Thank you. Your terrarium looks much better than the one I once made, and mine was not "free" because I purchased terrarium plants. Moss is hard to come by in Central Texas, so I didn't have any. But I also made a little pond using a whiskey glass. When I was done, I talked to myself and said, 'Now, what I need is a lizard." My cat brought me a lizard, the perfect terrarium lizard in fact, Plestiodon fasciatus, the common North American five-lined skink. That lizard drowned in the pond. My cat noticed as I removed the body and put it in the trash. I filled the pond with rocks almost to the top. The cat, smarter than me, brought me another lizard. That one lived for years.

Beneath the goofiness, he's actually really good at making terrariums. Keep at it dude, I'm curious to see what you do later on

You could fix the bottom by first cleaning well. Place tape over the cracks Turn the tank over bottom side up, you can use aluminum tape to create a well and to seal the sides so you don't have this running down the sides If in doubt use silicone caulk to seal the tape. mix and pour Clear resin on the bottom of the tank. Wait 48 hours to cure and harden. Your tank should be good as new, even better it should have a nice thick surface to sit on. Make sure you test it to make sure it doesn't leak, just in case you didn't pour the resin thick enough. If it leaks , repeat the process.

My daughter found a 4 inch elephant hawk moth caterpillar in our garden last week, so I decided to rehome it in a glass jar with some moss, stick and leaves. After 1 day it decided to bury itself in the moss and overwinter. So now I guess I'm stuck with this jar in the kitchen until it hatches into a big moth in May.

Glad you stayed with voice (and later reduced trap)

you chose a great microphone, and / or your audio editing is on point. sick terrarium, was thinking of doing something similar just too lazy to make the space for a large enough 'rarium. maybe i'll just set something like this up in the backyard, just dig it into the ground a little, free access to critters to escape, under the shade of the vegitables. take it with me when the lease expires ;)

@@HomemadeEcosystems having some issues with water wicking over the edge of the stream into the land areas. Not sure how to solve that. Working on it. I guess this is part of the hobby-problem solving.

i made a 100 Gallon Tank into a terrarium with plants that were at my grandmas place, i split the tank into 2 different areas, a pond and a landmass. i used tapwater for the pond and well.. 7 days after i put the tap water in i found living organisms that came from the tap water. i put one slug in the tank, isopods, springtails and centipedes into the tank. and the population of slugs is over 100. lets just say that you know how to manage things better than me 😅

Unfortunately ants will find a way to escape from a small area if they are not confined in an ant-proof enclosure. You need something made especially for ants, and an old aquarium won't work. I know, because I tried it, and the colony of ants, having grown larger, executed a mass escape in the middle of the night and took up residence in my computer printer...

You should add sea monkeys in the pond ❤
