This Tiny Terrarium Is Not What You Think

I've been making terrariums on KZbin now for over a decade. I've put them in an array of containers over that time to showcase the artistry of terrarium. That bring us to Crocs. I recently got a few pairs and decided that I might as well create little ecosystems to embellish them with. I personally think they look awesome and it was a fun project to make. What do you think? Let me know and enjoy!

I got Crocs recently and I had to do it! What do you think? Which design is your favorite? Let me know, enjoy the video, and have a great weekend SerpaSquad!

[@silasfoulon]

Haha, I really like it😅👍🌿

[@josiecroix]

This video was a hilarious delight. Shame two broke, not the most ideak for fish room maintenance work, maybe society isn't ready for them, but they're here!... Somehow this was an idea! 😂 I love it, what a fun video to start the day

[@al-aurum2457]

i wish the collab will actually happen

[@MrGosvi]

The ones with the tiny plants are my favourite, definetely the harder ones to make but they look so awesome :)

[@ialrakis5173]

It would actually be nice to have a pair in a big build and let nature have a go at them.

[@loricbrandt]

Some people add jingle bells for the holiday season. Tanner adds tiny, living worlds.

[@johnbornosupport]

imagine his christmas tree with mini terrariums instead of christmas tree balls. would look so sick

[@mhenderson7673]

Makes him sound like some kind of god

[@MrAhkmid]

@@DontReadMyProfilePicture.57don’t worry, we won’t :)

[@dpeterson5630]

The springtails have never looked like such giants in their environments before!

[@finn6492]

science has gone too far

[@tardigrademicro]

it's true

[@merced4545]

You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

[@AdamMars]

"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could... They didn't stop to think if they should."

[@lindad1195]

I disagree!

[@caesarxx_x]

science is becoming too silly and i love it

[@loriw2661]

Gotta admit, I never saw this one coming😂 They’re actually really cool. I love the mini terrariums on their own & they’d sell like crazy!🐊

[@squidarcherb9707]

Love how tanner is getting more confident LOL!

[@hideflen6078]

THE ABSOLUTE MADLAD!! I'm so blown away by the finishing touch of the orange springtails. Maybe this is the thing that gets me to try crocs!

[@lavender-hearts]

I think my favorite is the one with the tiny retaining wall. Your patience never ceases to amaze me.

[@thetoppesthat8224]

Imagine selling these on your store! That would be amazing

[@thenormalguy5434]

Heshould do that

[@tarawiselove]

I would buy

[@JustAFace_InTheCrowd]

Me too!!!

[@christineherrmann205]

Way too much work for what you could charge, likely. But a lot of handmade stuff is like that.

[@lornacy]

​@@christineherrmann205 At ten dollars an hour and materials, these would probably cost around a grand a pair? 😂

[@BlahCraft1]

This is both horrible and beautiful... I love it. This is so much better than any of the designer clothes you'll see in shows.

[@hazonku]

Well, there's a build I never expected. I love the sheer amount of variety you pulled off in such tiny spaces. The branch retaining wall with the mini forest floor and the sand path are my favorites.

[@robynfree1558]

I love these!

[@IRISnGEN]

The Salamanders enjoy your creativity and look forward to what you can create for them. Also, they feel X-mas ornaments are another great opportunity for exploring what can be made into a terrarium.

[@semjart]

Ohhh yes that would be such a fun project!!

[@Kehy_ThisNameWasAlreadyTaken]

I literally have a clear, unfilled ball ornament sitting in front of me as I type

[@sharongould2689]

ive got 2 packs of different sizes in the cupboard!

[@lynnh3710]

Now this is dedication! I enjoyed your artistry and humor. 🙂

[@Cyberdragunz]

I would love to see how these hold up in 6 months! can just imagine little moss forests completely filling the tops of the little globes

[@ronaldjames4986]

Never thought I'd see terrarium Crocs but SO happy I did!!! Wow! on so many levels.

[@IlseMulAuthor]

The moment I saw your video pop-up in my feed, my first thought was: This can only have been done by Tanner 😁😁😁 Crocs with mini terrariums should be a must to have! Thank you for sharing this with us 😀

[@randystache78]

Tanner, you’ve outdone yourself! Yet details in such a tiny space is insane! Well done sir.

[@FinnegansFish]

You, Sir, could teach a master class in patience!

[@migwat]

It sounds like you had so much fun with this one, 2 minutes in and I'm already excited

[@BigShrimpin416]

OMG I absolutely love it!!! ❤ you have some serious patience to do this!!

[@FryDaddy]

Loved this! The lil springtails getting lil homes is awesome

[@suzil7687]

Tanner, I love everything you do but this one just tickled my fancy! So clever and brilliantly executed as always!

[@semjart]

I would buy Serpadesign x Crocs so fast omg. You’ve outdone yourself once again. Just so incredible

[@berthaday3473]

Duh Semjart - Croc Company listen up

[@effy_kujo]

You always have something unique & innovative for us! (Not that I would mind an oldschool terrarium video). I love the tiny worlds you create! It's amazing how you can make the scenery still look like a true slice of nature on such a tiny scale. As for the corks, they look like they might be a little awkward & since the fit had to be customized, maybe not airtight. Perhaps you can try to make lids/stoppers with a dab of hot glue, so it's able to lay flat but also seals the hole while also being removable for maintenance. It's probably best to do it by creating a little mold out of playdough or clay or something. Just a thought 😊 Also: Crocs, get on that Serpa x Crocs collab ASAP, please 🙏🏻

[@sjldfilms5126]

You make my Saturday mornings!! This channel is the best coffee companion.

[@brebre461]

This is hilarious, clever, and beautiful at the same time! Your fingernails and plants for scale really amaze me. I never thought creeping fig leaves would look so big.

[@nicoleduckery4067]

Just when I think there's nothing left for you to build that will surprise me, you come through with orange springtails in teeny tiny glass spheres to match orange crocs. Bravo!!

[@MrGosvi]

Nice video, as always :) you can size down the corks quite easy, just sticking a little drill bit on the center of the cork and turn it slowly while grinding away the exess material with some sandpaper, that way they fit perfectly and have a round finish. Keep up the good work :)

[@cerisekappes580]

Definitely one of your most unique and interesting builds 😊😊😊

[@hanjerry57]

They're the new One, two, plants on my shoooeeee~ three, four, planting some mooorrree~ five, six, filled with sticks~

[@jiminiechubbycheeksj6296]

my friends and family have been bullying me for years cause I wore crocs everywhere and now it's suddenly on trend and they've become expensive af lmao Edit : the creativity in this video is absolutely out of this world, would have never in a milion years imagined that something like this could be possible !

[@dahlmasen3084]

Not going to lie, I was expecting some waterfalls

[@beatricetreadwell5785]

😂😂😂

[@BeautifulEarthJa]

Lol

[@AmazingDavidIllusionist]

That was hilarious 😂😂😂

[@dylanrees2104]

That might be the best thing I have ever seen.

[@Dasiapee]

This is actually cool. I love the creativity you have because who the hell else would have thought of this.

[@coryharry7300]

A true artist with the patience of Job.

[@tomhoblin4571]

These are definitely one of the pairs of Crocs in the world

[@retyroni]

Absurd. Love it!

[@marieonheart]

what a wonderful miniature world :)

[@sandracattini-schultz3828]

Oh wow Tanner. Orange is my favourite colour. These are super cute

[@Dieppaloveplants]

Whatttt heck yeah a croc and serpa Design Crocs will be so cool

[@sarahwatts7152]

I love the snap toward the end, a great effect

[@AlisaGrishman]

This is so ridiculous. I love it.

[@lorrainemunoa791]

You mad genius, you actually did it!

[@leticiamcavoy7969]

Absolutely love this !!! 🫶🏻✨ I watch all your videos and I’m always obsessed. It really helps me chill and I love plants so much 🌱 I’m definitely a foliage gal cannot keep flowers alive to save my life 😅

[@Autumn-Leafeon]

The Crocs company or whatever should respond to this by making a giant croc-shaped terrarium/aquarium.

[@NyssaMysteria]

This is completely unhinged and brilliant at the same time. I think I like it?

[@mmerriman4995]

Love this project and your energy! You make beautiful living art again and again. Thank you.

[@aubryellaotero1064]

Omg I love the orange springtails!

[@tracybowling1156]

I ❤ Crocs and I ❤️ SerpaDesign. It def makes sense!

[@danasmith8557]

Wow that's amazing , and they look great!!!!

[@michaelajaros807]

Was NOT expecting this but the coolest and most amazing thing in all of KZbin!

[@roughbets888]

this is on another level ..

[@locutusofquail8426]

You got me. I laughed. It made me happy. Thank you, Tanner.

[@QueenAmy]

LOL! Well, I have been thoroughly entertained with this!

[@kymberlysteiger8125]

Absolutely Epic! You blew it out of the park with this masterpiece! My favorite was the one with the retaining wall.

[@nickiebledsoe6302]

Love them! Awesome and the best unique thing I've seen in a very long long time! 🙂❤️🙂❤️

[@randihardy6642]

Well, this is the most creative idea ive ever seen

[@lindseymercuria3971]

I started crying for joy during the creation of these incredible miniature worlds then I remembered they were going on Crocs and I started crying. Just ... crying. Crocs, shoes to cry about.

[@noczaj8750]

im sorry what

[@matiasjuanlopez]

Looks great! 😂

[@londoeblack]

That has to be the craziest thing I have ever seen, crazy in a good way of course! You have a wonderful imagination!

[@barbhelle5481]

Cute and very different. You get an A+

[@vampgaia]

I would never have the patience to do anything like this. Wowza!

[@lizardlover420]

tanner you are so creative!

[@amywernet577]

❤ 😊 oh wow, Crocs owes you a bit of love and flowers 💐

[@Ashley88.]

LOVE this LOVE THIS so much! 💚 🧡 🌱 🔮 🐊

[@AroidDistrict]

You definitely ATE this video up! I like how you added orange Springtails.

[@rainbowcuppycakex]

As a mini ecosystem lover and a huge croc lover. I need this in my life

[@anand_kv__]

Those Crocs look 'Drippy' 🔥

[@cathrynlisa]

These would make great baubles on a bare twig Christmas tree

[@shadowscythes]

I love these and how you were able to make so many unique designs...but the entire video the thought that wouldn't leave my mind is "how are the scapes going to stay intact when you start walking around with them" 😅interested to see how these hold up over time

[@Kehy_ThisNameWasAlreadyTaken]

To replicate with non-living plants, you can set the substrate and hardscape, and then drip a little thin liquid superglue in to set it. Wait a bit, then glue in fake plant bits. I'm ok with fake plants because I want the real ones in actual terrariums/vivariums

[@stacyhall3061]

Love this so much!!! How creative!!! Also Crocs need to get on this collab right away.

[@bethanycowan9275]

i enjoyed this more than expected

[@lawsonsanimals4780]

Love Crocs

[@cerhn]

Ambitious. these would also be absolutely gorgeous installed as part of a han

[@H2OBoB1]

I think you have really outdone yourself with this one!

[@Cockneygirl1967]

WOW....Tanner, you out did yourself....again..... way to go, these are awesome. Love your channel. You are an awesome inspiration. Thank you. Love and Peace

[@casandraolund9006]

Those are so cool. I just love minis. Kirsty Meakin would love those (she’s a KZbin nail tech star who loves her crocs)

[@lindad1195]

Very creative Tanner! I love it!

[@tristanvires1865]

super cool! to refine the look maybe put the corks on a belt sander with a little water. should be able to round them out without them breaking apart on ya !

[@Elaine_P_Smith]

You have a creative and ingenious mind, almost like Einstein. You should teach classes on terrarium designs and landscaping. Keep doing what you do.

[@whycantifeelmyface]

THIS IS THE MOST TANNER THING IVE EVER SEEN AND I AM LIVING. I COULD NOT BE HAPPIER

[@SriLankanUniversityUpdates]

AWESOME DESIGN!! 😍

[@diette10]

I love anything tiny so this made me happy!!!

[@BakeBakePi]

Those look incredible! Great video!

[@karenreallyrespondspugnann415]

😂❤ so fun!!

[@achevres]

When Crocs first came out I wouldn’t get a pair. This was years ago. Then a rep came to my office for unrelated business and gave us all a pair. They were and are so perfect to take the dogs out or do things in the yard or walk around the house. They lasted for years and I bought my second pair. For a number of uses they can’t be beat.

[@michellelester243]

Definitely not expected but thoroughly enjoyed!

[@sharongiesey7071]

This was so much fun, what a clever idea.

[@littlemidwestrebornsdolls]

Your Crocs look great! However, there is NO WAY I have the patience to do something that creative!!! You are awesome!!!

[@cwright012]

wow your talent is amazing i love watching you build these live enviroment places you create little worlds is what i like to call them, very cool

[@hariman006]

Now there is some serious dedication 😂👏🏻

[@stephsexoticpets]

oh. my. god. excellent

[@yelssorc]

I definitely want to see an update on how these maintain in the future

[@horsinacz]

This was such an entertaining video to watch. I was chuckling the entire time😆

[@JoseHerrera-me8xc]

Absolutely amazing

[@The.Owl.Spirit]

Tanner, you're a madman!!! Do it again.

[@morganw.4711]

Tanner you absolute mad lad. 😂

[@dshares]

This one was cool!
