Welcome back 🥺

[@dshobe720]

Long time good to see a new video. Great work!

[@eidiu3551]

nice work tho i wouldnt have used cork due to it only holding 5-6 years ... i would rather use Xaxim for example

[@gearscodeandfire]

Loving the thoughtfulness and ability to be reproduced in this build

[@surgeinc1]

This is a work of art, and your attention to every detail! Looking forward to more videos.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you so much 😀

[@capttom144]

What an amazing piece! One can feel the effort you put in - and it sure paid off! 👍

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you so much 😀

[@Wtfzipcode]

this was great. the build itself is pretty nice but this is a super detailed tutorial and very well made video

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!

[@MikeTytula]

Yes!! New video!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks for watching, bro

[@MikeTytula]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria Of course! Love the videos!

[@rickcill]

Welcome back my man ;D Hope more videos will follow soon!

[@carlsbl]

Welcome back! I was on your channel earlier this week rewatching your grow box series to get ideas on what plants to order next. Your videos are extremely well done and just a pleasure to watch, and rewatch again! 😀

[@l____bugc____l]

Beautifull !! Such a cool idea for on a TV cabinet under a TV or above a TV over its entire length.. I might steal your idea if you dont mind... 🥰 Love it !!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Feel free to have fun and make your own! Thank you!

[@markiyanturyk7626]

Welcome back!

[@yess740]

I really love that you finally came back to KZbin, as I was just thinking about your channel a few weeks ago. Personally, I kinda stopped keeping plants, but your videos made me reconsider starting up with the hobby again as its just so peaceful and rewarding, espacially with inspiration from your channel!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Wow, thank you!

[@tps2686]

Thank you sharing such an inspirational setup. Beautiful 😍. I am an orchid lover, hope to see more mini orchids in your future terrarium setup.

[@bigwillythewonka8523]

This is like the release of a big movie. "Camping outside waiting for the doors to open for the movie premier"

[@windsunh2o]

This was in my recommended and I'm so happy it was! This is the first I've seen from your channel and I love your creativity and how you explain everything. Such a unique idea and it turned out fantastic! I've subscribed and am looking forward to updates on this one. I'm excited to start exploring your channel. Peace.

[@pandugofast]

Subscribed, you should do a longer reveal at the end to show it off!

[@DalekZhang]

You can use a pin/small blade to open the locking mechanism on zip ties to unlock and reuse them.

[@DDryTaste]

[@thaillling9369]

incredible, so glad you are making videos again. That cochlidium is insane.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you! Yes, it's one of my fave mini plants. That specimen is many years old.

[@kylenixon709]

Waited awhile for this one! So excited! The choice of plants is amazing. I've been trying to source Asplenium holophlebium for a long time but can't find it anywhere.

[@maggiehellis842]

Yay!! Welcome back!

[@fransblokhuis]

This is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. You've created something really special. I love how "understated" it is, this makes it look very natural. The Bulbophyllum orchid is such a star. Wow wow wow!

[@Aedony]

Incredible how much work went into this. But it looks absolutely stunning! Well done!

[@sekaiomiruhitokaminoyume5426]

[@enricofossati8720]

Beautiful Work Matt, very inspiring every time I see one of your videos I want to start a new terrarium. Well done keep up the great work

[@arthropoda]

You are back 💥

[@glassyGREEN_]

Wow, this is just insane. What an awesome build, I love it. 😍

[@triax7218]

Cork doesnt rot, it's moist and mold resistant. Its a big reason why it's commonly used for paludarium tanks and other jungle type set ups.

[@danielefabbro822]

Really cool. Love it. 👍

[@olleyOop]

Very inspiring! And so detailed -- so cool. Do you have a tip where to buy plants? E.g. the two Elaphoglossum I couldn't find ..

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

At this time I generally don't recommend specific sources for plants because there are many sources and many types of plants, so each case varies, but most of my sources are just hobbyists and smaller or private vendors. It also depends where you live. Please check out www.anotherworldterraria.com/faq/#plant-sourcing which is a general summary of the types of sources I use, and has tips on how to build a network of sources for yourself. There are not any specific vendors listed there though. Following the suggestions might help you eventually uncover some sources that work for you. I hope that helps!

[@junrycalvo]

Very detailed & outstanding!

[@lowcus211]

Amazing build! I've been thinking of doing this too but vertically. For a tall tank that I have, maybe like a tree? Not sure how it would work but thanks for the info 👍

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you. The one you're thinking about is the branch vivarium by Mikael (I think he owns or at least works for Dusk Tropic). I came up with my idea before I saw his work (as noted in my video), but I did find a lot of inspiration and learning from his project and photos. You could definitely do a vertical tree trunk terrarium.

[@dshobe720]

Always like your art! I've been doing similar things with ceramic (glass) tile terrariums using my native North Carolina mosses, liverworts, and ferns. I like adding 1/4 inch drains so I don't have to siphon off excess water. Have you used clay in any of your designs yet? I've found it grows ground mosses well on walls.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you! I wanted to use a bulkhead drain in the tank but that would have required a custom stand and I couldn't spend the money for find the space for that. Yes, I used clay in my Crown Forest terrarium. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3iYaGimpZ2dnbc

[@savenature2717]

great job.. you know your stuff.. THX man.

[@SunniMerlot]

would be cool to have some soil and plants on the ground with some isopods, springtails and small lizards or something in with the branch

[@jenpink4298]

This is beautiful! Well done!

[@EliezaBaby]

Stunning 😍

[@thequeenofsporks]

Great build! How are you managing moisture in the tank? Manual spraying?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks. Yes, manual spraying when it needs it, drenching the branch heavily. Sealed lid to keep it humid always.

[@colossuses]

Great setup. I'm gonna try this.. Why not foam the pipe strsight to the Cork?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thanks. If you mean spray the foam and attach the PVC and the wood right then with the foam, the reason why not is because it would be impossible to control the foam thickness and shape, or to prevent the wood from being displaced.

[@little76boo1]

Wow! Just found Yr channel, awesome build!

[@anthonywright2802]

Amazing thanks for sharing

[@AriHuttunen]

Awesome work! I'm really interested what's the care regimen like? You said it's sealed and has a fan. Is misting done by hand only? Is the fine mist only for effect or is it on continuously?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

misting by hand with a pump sprayer, often enough to keep the top moss and plants moist. I do it heavily enough to saturate the entire thing so all the moss and branch is dripping water down.

[@pinkalpatel9817]

wonderful creation

[@dakotaross8845]

Excellent video!

[@danielyarjau4991]

Looks good

[@rjward1775]

I really liked the orchid.

[@trand8l]

respect! thats hard work

[@Matthijs704]

I am so happy with this new video. Welcome back man. Too bad I missed the release with chat. How much time did you give the wood to mold and get ´cured´ before planting? The result is absolutely stunning. Very good job and excellent tutorial.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

thank you! it was about 2.5 weeks in the AWT Mold Cycle Method

[@kentross1134]

Fantastic! What did you use for a lid?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you! I was lazy and used saran wrap, but could easily have gotten a piece of acrylic or glass

[@kentross1134]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria yeah, that makes sense thanks. Really cool design

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Thank you!

[@barachihuang]

masterpiece!!!

[@davidbaydush2813]

Do you have a lid on this, or do you keep it open with a fogger to maintain humidity?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

It's kept sealed with a lid.

[@davidbaydush2813]

@@AnotherWorldTerraria do you also keep a fogger running in it? Or just open and mist it?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

I don't have a fogger running usually. I just do it occasionally, tbh because it looks cool. I just open it to water. Nisting by hand with a pump sprayer, often enough to keep the top moss and plants moist. I do it heavily enough to saturate the entire thing so all the moss and branch is dripping water down.

[@herveydoerr-rolley9241]

Absolutely amazing! So glad to see your return to producing videos, I was curious, i might have missed it but did you end up leaving the pc fan running long term? if so, on a timer or consistently on? Thank you!

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

The fan is in for the long haul. It goes on and off on a digital timer multiple times per day. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@aakaakov]

please tell me, will there be a recording? in my region, the actual time will be 4 am :)

Off topic question, how did you pot your Tocache blue selaginella?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

Sealed plastic bin, medium-low light, humid, substrate moist but not wet. Substrate is primarily akadama and sphagnum, but has a small amount of charcoal, bark, pumice, and seachem flourite

What fabrick did you use please

I don't know. It was sent to me by a friend. It's just some kind of spacer mesh.

[@prabathsamarasooriya4013]

how would you water this piece of art?

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

I use a pump sprayer and just water the entire branch till it's dripping wet, as needed. And mist it with a spray bottle.

[@jcgreenlife-9130]

Very nice!!!!😍😍😍😍😍

[@Fallibleandflawed]

I got an idea. You could put it on a wall and paint the rest of the tree with all kinds of animals that live there. It would look amazing and give it perspective. Would look like you took a piece of the wall and made it real.

[@athomenotavailable]

This looks like it could be a good method for planting Neofinetia Falcata orchids

[@flashmop8170]

where are the plantz? an so on what

[@xxdragonrenderxx]

shoulda had vines hanging down

[@nonrepublicrat]

It would be much better to use hardwood instead of cork. Cork will rot and must be replaced in 2-3 years.

[@sdqsdq6274]

long hiatus , glad you notice some isopods eat healthy plants when there nothing to eat , they are not really the perfect bio crew

[@MarsATX]

or you could go to a forest cut a fallen tree with a saw and put it in a tank.

[@AnotherWorldTerraria]

You definitely could. But that's not what I wanted to do. Also that would have a big risk of pests and pathogens. Not to mention it would not look how I wanted.

[@MLGodzilla]

And I thought mine was cool
