The music seems proper; a beautiful scene, yet also the sad inevitable end of the last ramshorn snail. .... 🐌

[@christopherstein2024]

Honestly I don't really feel well after watching these videos because of the music.

[@MikaelThas]

The music is so soothing you actually get thinky, and to think a lot is not good. It's not the music's fault, it's our minds'.

Whenever I try to make an ecosphere the water smells like a swamp and eventually starts to ferment. How do you keep your ecospheres working so well and so nice while sealed? Thanks

[@rinzler1120]

Same

[@Vyezene]

Gotta have a good plant to substrate ratio, and also make sure you aren’t using a twist on jar lid cause those let out air and pickle the contents, if your jar has that kind of lid use silicone to seal it :)

[@Brionkendo]

@@Vyezene For a terrarium a twist on lid is ok right? That's only for an ecosphere that you need a solid seal correct? Thanks for your time.

Did this one ever get overgrown with algae at any point?

[@Jartopia]

It did once have a outbreak of string algae. The Dwarf Amphipods eventually ate it all.

[@jakeyonkers3900]

@@Jartopia ah, cause I made one from a slow stream near my house because I got inspired by you, but after about a month it turned black and there was bubbly brown algae on the top :(

[@Naglfarlindar]

@@jakeyonkers3900 I had something similar happen to my first ecosphere. The creatures didn't seem to mind (though the tubifex and worms died out). I eventually unsealed it and now keep a glass jar upside down over the nozzle as a loose seal. It cleared up over the course of a few weeks, doing fine several months later. Since had the water get somewhat cloudy but green which is dissipating again. I'm thinking the black phase was due to an overload in decaying plant matter. This creates ammonia (I think) which the system can't metabolize in such quantities.

[@jakeyonkers3900]

@@Naglfarlindar it also looked like all of the copapods and amphipods died out too...

Hi After watching your videos I’ve decided to make my own and I have a pond that has lots of shrimp in them so I’ve got them and much of the vegetation and a nice stick in there only problem is some of the shrimp stand still pointing up and I don’t know why?

[@dioindrawan9810]

Hey i want to ask, what kind of light do you use to grow ? And do you still use day and night system to successfully grow the system? Thanks!

[@sculptedfromklay]

Question: how do you prevent algae from growing on the glass? I’ve made my own aquatic ecosphere from my local river, and nearly a year later, I can barely see what’s inside. Any tips?

[@martsy_pan5547]

Thanks, I have a similar problem right now with my jars:D

[@Mr_pai_pai]

The snail

[@martsy_pan5547]

Hi, first of all I adore your videos they are beautiful and I love that you give so much information on the different lifeforms present in each jar. But I wanted to ask how you get them to thrive so well? I tried to make one a week ago and it had some nice variety. I put old wood, stones and a variety of plants in there but a lot of the organism seem to have died. And now there is a layer of watermoss (?) at the top. Will it bounce back after some time to being more clear and thriving again? Or did I make a mistake? Ps: I also put it on a window, is that to much light?

[@eligibbard1439]

Cool to see how these amphipods increase the productivity of the ecosystem. Sad to see the loss of biodiversity tho. When something goes extinct in these ecospheres can u mention it more cause it can be a little confusing when u dont mention something. like did it die out or did you forget to film it.

i am going to buy Begärlig from ikea. that would make a huge environment for my first jar ecosystem

So I have a thriving ecosphere right now but when I first got it about 3 1/2 months ago it died after 2 weeks. Water and half the dirt was completely black. And now just 3 weeks ago I saw a bunch of ostracods and grass that wasn't there originally started to grow. What happened? Why was it all black and dead for 2 months?

Totally Random Question, Have you ever considered creating a Jar, normally like you do often, but adding a completely random element to it, I don't know why this particular thought came to mind as an example. but like a Cinnamon Stick added to an ecosystem to see what happens over time.
