Crown Forest Terrarium Build Log Part 1 (Custom stump!)

[@tome9661]

Your channel is so underrated.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

I appreciate that! I hope some day my channel will grow to a substantial size.

[@DerangedDrew]

The amount of thought that goes into these videos compared to the normie channels is staggering, they all seem to skip the design theory, animal husbandry and plant specific needs and go straight for the clickbait. Keep up the awesome work Matt!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you soooooo much! I spend insane amounts of hours even on short videos (and sometimes cut things out, add things, or redo parts). It's awesome to hear that people actually notice the effort going into these, and that it's really good/helpful. 😇

[@veronicadamelio5043]

I love that you give some "design theory" in your videos. It's really helpful.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Awesome, thanks for the feedback! I will be including a lot more design theory in following videos (in this series, as well as videos dedicated entirely to the topic). Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

I'm stoked to share with you lots of details, insights, and techniques in one of my most epic video series to date. Part 2 coming soon. Let me know if you learned anything useful or what your thoughts are. Thanks! 😎

[@michaelkouba6610]

Thank you so much! I have waited weeks since the first photo you posted. Can't wait for next parts. Your technique is huge inspiration to my builds.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@christianhobelsberger4182]

Getting the Story of your setup done by constructing the hardscape is the most challenging part for everyone who starts with aquascaping or terrascaping. Good advice is to take your time. It usually takes me about a month from the Idea to the finalised hardscape. Sometimes its done within a day but complex storys require more time :]

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

So true! Thank you my friend!

Schoen dich hier zu sehen, danke für den Kanaltip bei Aquaowner!

[@christianhobelsberger4182]

@@karlseidl6067 Hey Karl. Der Kanal is zwar auf englisch, aber matthew ist auf nem anderen nerd level, wenns um terrascaping geht. finde man lernt hier ziemlich viel. Kann das Video mit den Grow-Containern sehr empfehlen. So lager ich meine Pflanzen zwischen, wenn ich Layouts abbaue oder neu gestalte :) Cheers!

[@MikeTytula]

Awesome video man! Very well spoken!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you sir! Always appreciate your views and comments!

[@MikeTytula]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria Of course much more deserved than the other much bigger channel that posts much less informative videos haha

[@Trevorfoggia]

Great work. Your videos are inspirational and easy to follow. Greetings from Cumbria in the U.K. stay safe and well and thank you for sharing your great work.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you very much!

[@leegrimason4943]

Been waiting for you to do videos like these! Fantastic!!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you so much! More to come! :D

[@Lucasio24]

So beautiful, hyped for part 2

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Hopefully part 2 will be live Saturday. Keep an eye out, and if you enjoy it, please tell your friends :) Thanks for watching

[@pabloxanibar]

Awesome vid as usual, bud!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks again!

[@BGomez-tk7lu]

Looks awesome! I thought it was an aquarium aquascape at first. You did good to draw inspiration from the aquascaping hobby, I just have never seen a terrarium with such attention to composition and design before. This is stunning

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks a bunch!

[@georgjagunov9007]

Great channel! Thank you!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you too!

[@christianhobelsberger4182]

Btw matthew, why dont you just use the cigarette-filter / superglue technique as aquascapers do. Its not so strong holding together a lot of stones, but for wood pieces it should be enough :) Cheers!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks for the tip. Maybe I will try that for a future project. I really like epoxy because of the various speeds (60 sec, 5 min, 1 hr, etc) which give me more flexibility and ease in working with materials, and also because the epoxy is a gel which can span larger gaps (also the putty one can be used to build up missing areas like the holes the wood where that larger branch attached). So generally, epoxy gel and putty are things that work very well for me and have good benefits. But again, I would not be opposed to trying superglue on some smaller projects. Thank you sir!

[@karlseidl6067]

Good story, waiting to see your soil structure. Awesome work Matt!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you very much!

[@LakesReptiles]

As always super nice, I look forward to your videos. thanks for sharing, I wish I had all that wood lol

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Glad you like them! Yeah, no matter what wood/rocks I have, I always wish I had more.

[@bashovius]

Thank you so much for this, really insightful! I'm sure your channel will grow and get all the love it deserves! I'm rooting for you

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you so much! and you're welcome, happy to provide these useful videos! 💚🌿

[@SpringtailsUS]

another great video brother!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Appreciate it!

[@quiconque6563]

Very educational as always. Love that custom clamp device thingy that you built! Seems super useful. I'm wondering though, would the epoxy gel and putty be safe for use in a frog tank?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Sorry, I can't answer that. You'd have to research them.

[@orchidsantoso166]

Yeaaaaaaaa 🤓😻😻😻😻

[@anilmm12345]

Mathew i like all ur videos... Thanks for sharing ur insights..👍👍👌.. I liv in India our climate is very hot.. What is the ideal temperature and humidity in this kind of setups..? How u prevent mold and fungus?? What abt airflow?? Lot questions 😂😂😂

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Hello my friend! I keep all of my tanks at room temperature, which is usually around 70 F but goes up and down in summer and winter. I will go over the mold/fungus and other stuff in later videos in the series, but basically the solution is to use isopods, springtails, and avoid having too much decaying matter.

[@anilmm12345]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria 21°c that is 70F is unthinkable for me...even with an ac...😂 My aquarium water temperature is between 26 and 28.... Thanks for replay..

[@jtanch2]

Hey Matt, how come epoxy putty and not just silicone that you can stick the peat to in one step? Thanks! -James

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Hey James, I used epoxy putty in this particular case because of the very large gaps between the two pieces of wood. The point of doing that was to fill the void and ensure both pieces were essentially one. I could have used silicone but it would have been extremely thick, taken forever to cure, and would have been flexible. I would rather fill the gap with a solid material that is made for that purpose. Thanks for watching!

[@jtanch2]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria Awesome! Thanks for the reply! Great channel.

[@CunaguaroZ]

Thanks, Nice vídeo, how do you prevent mold on the wood?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you! I will be covering all of that in detail in future parts of the series, but basically, use isopods and springtails

[@petotheplankton8076]

What brand of epoxy putty and 60 second epoxy do you use?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

The gels are Devcon, the putty is Loctite
