Welcome to Cichlidscape. On this channel I document my fish keeping journey sharing aquarium setup videos, hints & tips, product reviews, store tours and much more!

Whether your new to the hobby or an absolute fish nerd, there's something for you here, so hit the sub button and follow along!
In today's video we're doing something a little different! My first Paludarium! We go over the tank, the build, some general how-to's & then take a look at the final product. Overall I'm really happy with how this turned out and can't wait to watch it evolve moving forward!

[@GingerFishyOfficial]

That’s awesome bro, I defo need to try making something like this one day! 👊

[@cichlidscape]

Thanks man! I would highly advise trying it! Really is great seeing how quickly the plants grow so fast like this. Appreciate you watching👍🏻

[@footagemissing]

Great job mate. I'm planning my first build, I have/can collect so many of the components, it's the cost of the tank that's the biggest hurdle, your approach (start small/buy second hand) is a smart move I may have to look into. Cheers. Subbed.

[@cichlidscape]

Thanks for checking out the video I appreciate it! I hope you tank/build goes well! I’ll be sure to keep posting stuff on this setup. I have stuff on it on instagram too if you want to follow along there as well👍🏻

[@footagemissing]

@@cichlidscape progress reports are awesome, there are so many cool build videos here but I'm keen to see the progress/updates to hear about what works what doesn't, what you learnt/would change/not so next time etc. Keep it up!

[@OfficeAquatics]

The spray foam really made the tank. Looks like it was custom made for lots of 💵

[@cichlidscape]

Thanks! I think the foam was like $12 from my local hardware store. Not bad at all! I’ll definitely be doing it again so I’ll be sure to video on 2 camera’s next time! Haha thanks for watching👍🏻

[@paulcoon5225]

Looks amazing! How did you do the little waterfall? And doesnt the bottom fill up?

[@cichlidscape]

Thanks Paul. It was just cut out from the background. So it’s pond insulation foam. The bottom of the tank does fill up too yeah👍🏻

These are red clawed crabs, not red apple crabs. They need brackish water!
