Okay man ✅ Thats a bunch of materials pretty cool

[@petsforlife8651]

Thanks for helping :)

[@ChandankPatra]

Thanks 😊

[@TerrariumDesigns]

A lot of time went into this one, hope you enjoy it!💚

[@kavindudilshan7108]

Finaly you did it.This vivarium making video is my dream

[@HarryPotterDoc-sf5ui]

Yaa ❤❤❤❤

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Glad you enjoyed it😃

[@kavindudilshan7108]

Bro plz do a video about how to make a misting system

[@DropEmDavis]

Love the vids any chance you could do a small turtle habitat??

[@ashclayton699]

I love that you did this entire build without the use of expanding foam. That cork background looks absolutely stunning, this is the technique I've been looking for!

[@oreodoesit]

yes, me too. I'm not a huge fan of using lots of expanding foam.

[@mainadas1]

No it's still good 👍

[@csintaaron4364]

same here. :D

[@Stephen-jw8ci]

using beautiful terrariums to weigh down the cork panels is such a flex. great work as always

[@Foogle..]

Would love to see Grogu have a family. 🙂Cool build/video!

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Me too! Thank you😃

[@ChillTime-u2b]

Me to

[@isaiahthompson8928]

Let Grogu breed!!!

[@wolfdieter6891]

Lol!

[@ChandankPatra]

😂

[@LitKAW303]

Yes breeding frogs and making a water area would be so cool to watch them grow.

[@ElementAir83]

That philodendron really does steal the show, doesn't it! Really nice build

[@scourge2bunnies]

This vivarium is beautiful. I love the spiderwood. However after the frog, the log is the star of the show. I’ve never seen a piece of driftwood that looks like Godzilla before. So cool!

[@Ladonnasofranko]

I thought the same thing! Lol

[@TerrariumDesigns]

It’s a really cool piece! & now you’ve said it, it really does look like Godzilla😅

[@Pirate_jakal]

This is the Terrarium we have all been waiting for🎉

[@lostInExotics]

Carving down the cork tile to make it more uniform is genius!

[@xrodr2]

The late additions really pull it together. I also really like how excited you sound about the plants you've included

[@jparker785]

Definitely give him a friend. Then, you'll have to make room for all the babies, so we get another video! 😊✌️

[@RangeetSaha-r8x]

absolutely beautiful build, you perfectly showcased an inexpensive build for hobbyists who work on tight budgets but have a lot of terrariums to build, top notch

[@metukkalover1]

i have always wanted to make a frog terrarium, and this really boosted my confidence into start making one. Thanks boss!😎

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Glad I could help!😃

[@jeremyfrost2636]

Good luck!

[@ReverseArtist]

the shot near the end in the dark room with only the Terrarium lit up so naturally is stunning and gives me the feels

[@RawYoghurt]

Loving the content! Just an idea that I haven't seen anyone try, what about a terrarium centered around chillies and other spicy plants. I don't know if it would work but it might be worth a try!

[@meanderinmelancholic]

As a beginning enthusiast with both terrariums and vivariums, this is one of my favorite build videos so far! (And I've watched HOURS of them.) I love that the way you put together the background was so simple and accessible. It's nice to feel like I could do something like this too! The plant selections were absolutely superb, including the later additions. Peperomias are some of my favorites. And using the spiderwood to make those roots down the walls and the back was an amazing touch!

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Really glad you enjoyed the video & thanks for the comment:)

[@egernman12]

I love it! I would love to see a terrarium, with Orchids included.

[@rebeccaampuero2347]

What a gorgeous habitat!! Your little tree frog must be thrilled (or at least will be once he's used to it).

[@cupofjae]

This one is BREATHTAKING. Excellent work! And I appreciate you SO MUCH for including the plant list. I always want to know the plants haha

[@aiden.0690]

Looks amazing he’s gonna love it in there

[@lighttrustx]

Always enjoy watching your new videos every weekend. Another gorgeous design that i would love to recreate one day for poison dart frogs as those are one of my favorite animals

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thank you for watching:) poison dart frogs are amazing for sure!

[@Marie_Danielle]

C'est vraiment superbe! Comme tu dis 'breath taking'! J'aime particulièrement ce que tu fais pour donner au background de liège un aspect naturel. J’apprécie aussi qu'on peut voir que tes arrangements fonctionnent vraiment avec une vue du résultat 4 mois plus tard. Continue.

[@kimberlycurry6549]

Dreaming of an eco system like this. So satisfying.

[@ChillTime-u2b]

I really want to see grogu have a family it would make a great video

[@nicholasvellios6555]

Great setup! I really enjoy your channel. I especially love how you always wait to post your videos until the tanks have matured for a couple of months. I'd love to see more on Grogu and on your other frogs, if you can oblige!

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Glad you enjoyed the video! I always think it adds to the video with an update on how it’s growing:) appreciate your support!

[@briankeithlinville6202]

Fascinating. I'd love to see more of the little fellow make his way through the environment.

[@danasmith8557]

That's gorgeous!!! You did great !!!!!❤

[@tammysellers3089]

Absolutely breathtaking!❤

[@jaymcleod5684]

The tree roots look awesome on the background! And I’d also enjoy seeing grogu having a friend!

[@SquidgytheGreat]

I own Whites Tree Frogs (Kent, UK) and never heard you could get cork panels! Would have REALLY helped with my build rather than spray foam. Whites need a less humid environment so had great fun finding plants that survive in that climate (English ivy, golden pothos, arrowhead etc). Amazing vid as always

[@Gato_comunista21]

I speak Spanish but I still love your videos, the terrariums you make are really beautiful 💚

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Glad you enjoyed the video😃

Looks Gorgeous. If i wasn't a guitar player id definitely be a Terrarium builder in another life.

[@livlivz1404]

Been absolutely loving your videos lately. Inspired me to try and make my own little terrarium, but it’s so amazing to see how big your setups can get! So cool, thank you for sharing your knowledge and art!

[@lollipop2604]

YES ILL BE INTERESTED IN BABY FROGS SO CUTE!!!🐸

[@lauraclarke7197]

I loved watching this build! I'm halfway through a large viv build and it's my first, so watching how to plant the viv was really helpful. It was nice to see a build by someone else from the UK too!

[@MarkBoda]

That cork backdrop would be great as a full wall as the 3d layering & sculpting looks great. Fantastic job!

[@MrBeeMeR320D]

Love the roots, their form and colour make them pop between all the nice greenery.

[@frankdevries6153]

Magnificent

[@DDryTaste]

As for plant suggestions, maybe something like a warm growing lepanthes would look great? There's tons of cool miniature orchids that would look great in this tank.

[@chickenfist1554]

I think it looks awesome, and I especially appreciate the links to UK sites for products used. The one thing I'd add is branches, both horizontal and vertical as it currently looks more suitable for Dart frogs than Tree frogs. It'll also provide extra places for moss and other plants to be added :)

[@brooksplayzofficial]

Dude you inspire me and you are the best❤

[@kimberlycurry6549]

Facts!

[@stolid_3]

i would love to see a pennywort terrarium with other plants that grow with it as that’s what lives around me.

[@montezmontez8887]

I just discovered your channel and it serves as a beautiful guide for me, you made my day better friend, thank you.

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Love to hear this, glad you enjoyed the video:)

[@AMWOR_86]

Really really cool! The build is awesome and the progression is amazing.

[@analogcringe403]

Personally, I think it’s good. If other people think it’s bad, don’t listen to them.❤

[@austinmaxwell9519]

I think some anthuriums would make an excellent addition as well!

[@Hannah-CatLady]

wooooow!!! awesome terrarium and super cute frog! I really like the christmas moss.

[@RachaelOwen-t8l]

Absolutely love this ecosystem. Very nice job.

[@erikm8372]

I’m so glad I found your channel… And I’ve been doing this stuff since… 2007 or ‘08? Since I was 19? Lol. 🤔 If only there were channels like yours back then, my earlier setups wouldn’t have been so… “simple”. 😛 But in time, we learn. And your videos are full of such useful information. Stuff that literally seems obvious when I realize what it actually is... like, “why didn’t I ever notice that?” Even basic things, like saving the cork background shavings? Genius! And the siphon method for draining water out? Also genius.. saves me drilling a hole, finding the right tubing, sealing it, worrying that it’s going to eventually leak, etc. So… seriously, thank you! 😂

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Glad you found the video useful & thanks for the support😃

[@secretboi3316]

I find it really funny that your "heavy objects" for securing the background with silicone were two beautiful terrariums lol

[@davidarguelles5202]

The hardscape is already impressive, but the plant selection? Wow, it really looks like a scene in a Costa Rica cloudforest, with species that could be seen actually growing together in nature! Personally, I'd add some epiphytic Mesoamerican miniature ferns and orchids to complete the look. 🙌

[@rekhanandan4675]

I really like your ecosystems Suggestion - Try making a large paludarium build with frogs and maybe crabs

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thanks! May have something like that in the works👀😃

[@M31292]

It looks amazing! What I miss in many terrariums like this is ferns and horsetails. I find them being the archetype plants in jungle and woodlands together with moss. And they add to that prehistoric vibe that a junglesetting gives me. Maybe they are difficult to grow in terrariums I don't know, I'm just an observer, viewer... Looking forward to the next video!

[@jeremyfrost2636]

I've never tried horsetails in a terrarium, but I have a fern in my isopod terrarium and it's pretty easy. Not the easiest plant I've EVER dealt with, but not hard either.

[@Ji_suek]

Grogu is lucky to have you it's awesome thank u so much for giving this much time and patience for making this wonderful video we live 😊❤ I'm subbed 💖

[@mikehodulik5476]

I absolutely love how this turned out I’m gonna be doing a terrarium for 2 red eyed tree frogs shortly

[@leesapollo]

I’ve never worked with cork panels but they looked great after you got the drill on them.

[@aylacoke6014]

i loooove the vine look from the spider wood !

[@TemperVoid]

I wish I saw your channel before setting up my whites tree frog enclosure. The cork method of making backgrounds as opposed to expanding foam would have made their enclosure so much better. Going to have to do a redesign soon!

[@spencerhenry800]

Will you please do a Hawaiian Paradise Island themed terrarium?

[@BiggestSam]

My family loves your videos and we want to see how your frog is doing!

[@hope4horse]

Awesome Input for q beginner as iam in this Hobby . Thanks for your time ans effort to build this new Home for your frog 🫶🐸

[@蔡宗燁-j2w]

definitively love this one, just thinking it would be better if there's some vines horizontally from upper part of the scape

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Cool idea!😃

[@joelh6514]

Beautiful. Peperomia prostrata is my favorite and definitely recommended

[@Isaac-px1jx]

I would love to see they’re babies that would be really cool!😎

[@jianchierentin2546]

Your art is AWESOME!

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thank you!

[@auntiebb5814]

Absolutely Fabulous 😃 Thank You for sharing 👍

[@binethweerakoon5806]

amazing work 👏. I think high humidity loving orchids would do great in your terrarium with a small pop of colour with their blooms.

[@curvingfyre6810]

Cork panels like these are basically compressed cork bark, so you could 100% recycle those shavings as an aerating and composting substrate component

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Didn’t think of that, great suggestion:)

[@tplude1]

thank you for my new obsession 😆

"Going to put on some heavy objects to keep it in place" Only Terrarium Designs could use terrariums as a tool in the process of BUILDING ANOTHER terrarium
