Putting Terrariums in a Terrarium's Terrarium (Terraception)

[@SerpaDesign]

Yo dawg I herd you like terrariums so we put terrariums in yo terrarium's terrarium so you can terrarium while yo terrarium terrariums... or something like that! Sorry SerpaSquad I had to do it again lol. Don't expect to see that meme from me again any time soon.

[@HacknBuild]

So does that mean you're going to let us meme then? Sheesh!

[@lokiragnarok7616]

could you do a diving bell terrarium/aquarium with amphibians who can get out underwater and walk around in the submerged terrarium?

[@chimerschang]

I'm imagining a tragic love story now about a springtail who longs to be with another springtail in one of the smaller bottles.

[@nathanvarghese.]

Hahahahaha… you have a really active imagination 😂

[@Magic-komplexDe]

I can totally feel it 🥰

I love the diversity in the insects

[@M3iscool]

Yeah, are they all herbivores? How do they subsist in this environment?

[@gkoryniaka]

He didn't use any insects

[@rounaksaha1825]

Can you tell me how can the small terrariums be hydrated... I'm a teenager and new in this hobby... so I'm too curious😅 can you help by answering me?😊

i like the bugs added to it makes it a lot cooler

brendan preiser I really love the bugs!

[@sinisternightmare]

​@@jonbeech5158 Really? I thought, the word "bug" only applies to insects. But that might be because I am german and not an english native speaker. I don't think, that there is a german equivalent for the word for "bug", so we would translate it as "Käfer", which actually means "beetle". However, beetles/Käfer definitely are a biological sub-class of insects. That might add to the confusion of bugs being insects.

[@jonbeech5158]

@@sinisternightmare it's a common name for arthropods specifically in America, Bug is not a scientific name.

[@unknownmale7467]

All your videos are good but the quality in the picture and sound is the best. This has to be your best video yet. The diverse insects were an excellent call.

[@DianeCee0]

You absolutely outdid yourself on this! Love it!

[@davisbenn2179]

Production quality is fantastic as usual!

[@johnmar4336]

Please Serpa PUHLEEEEAAASSSEEEE give us updates on this!

[@eallae]

This is a piece of art

[@SjGhostNinja]

I have 2 very DIY native jar terrariums that are pretty small. I watched your videos and decided to make one (the jar is like 2inches tall) and i didnt really expect much but then it like.... it wasnt dying? so i ended up making another one in a pasta sauce jar and its thriving to say the least. I dont even have to open them so technically they are sealed but i do anyway just cause i like smelling them (they smell like fresh forests). It's been over a year now and now i even noticed that springtails have appeared inside which made me feel like a proud mother... basically thanks for doing these videos man :) You also taught me a lot about false bottoms and its the reason all my plants thrive in my bedroom (so much that they are outgrowing themselves and the window sill lmao) If it wasnt for you then i doubt my plants and room would look how they do now, you jump started a new passion, hobby and way to waste time for me and i love it (i sit by my window staring at my plants for ages just wasting away and enjoying life) So yeah basically Im just grateful to have come across your channel

[@Greenhouse_trash]

This is great! You should do a few arid terrariums or better yet, a lush terrarium inside an arid terrarium!!! Or maybe I'm just getting a bit out of hand here lol

[@johnmar4336]

Paarthurnax Dragon that would be sick

[@XavierAncarno]

Inception Horn..... _Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah_

[@darksentinel9304]

when are you going to show us your full collection?

[@SerpaDesign]

I'm actually doing that very soon. Probably next week or the week after.

[@DemonLord_D]

CAN'T WAIT!

[@TuckerSP2011]

Serpa Squad!!! Let's have t-shirts made up! False bottoms up!

[@littledipper3391]

TuckerSP2011 id actually buy a shirt that says false bottoms up unironically. We need to make it into a thing

[@trenthobson2756]

Okay? You know what? I really like it. Your terrarium/ it's kin look really good. Great job! Also, the thumbs up was for not just the isopods or Millepedes, or even just the snails, but for all of them.

[@larsonbeetles281]

Nevermind I watched one of your videos and answered my own question. You’re content is flawless, keep it up!

[@Gehatsle]

GREAT!!! Mister SerpaDesign not only liked my comment in the previous video but did exactly what I suggested! First time in my life I was taken seriously ;)

[@coryidell2634]

SerpaSquad hahaha nice I've watched quite a few of your videos but you caught me off guard there awesome!

[@alexnicholscollection]

Definitely my favorite channel right now

[@gwendolyncarter5668]

I never thought a youtuber could inspire me to actually bring bugs Indoors ! We usually catch them and throw them outside! Thanks!

[@aubreygtb3993]

Meanwhile a springtail falls in love with another on the outside of their terrarium, never to meet.

[@avalononeill5516]

Dude, you are coming up with some amazing ideas lately! Nice work on this one. I really like the addition of the woodlice and millipedes, and the simplicity of the mosses is a great idea as to not take away from the terrariums inside the terrariums inside the terrarium! Hahaha! This is a really creative and brilliant idea, thank you for sharing it with us :)

[@cheesenipspartymix]

Liking for the jars

[@SerpaDesign]

[@bohemianhh]

I was skeptical. Seeing the finished setup, though, it looks like some kind of magical 'worlds within worlds.' VERY nice!!

[@evantiel727]

I LOVE THE ISOPODS

[@Boogieforme]

Isopods don't get enough love, do they! They're such cool critters.

[@evantiel727]

Boogieforme Yea they deserve more love they are amazing creatures, really pretty and cute , and they are crustaceans that evolbed to breathe in land , thats just amazing ❤

[@ArTicKiiTTiiNs]

Absolutely stunning. Thanks for the amazing video as always. Looking forward to the next!

[@jameswoll]

I would like to see you pushing the envelope further with adding more and more critters into your builds. This was cool!

[@jack317]

I haven't had much luck keeping moss alive in a terrarium.

[@andrestensaas2678]

props to you man keep up the awe-inspiring work :)

[@NathalieBee]

I haven’t watched the video and i’m already AMAZED!!!!! I love your work!!!!!

[@eaglefeather246]

Hey! I'm just curious to know a bit more about the carbon layer. Is there anything in nature that performs the same function? Does the charcoal from forest fires help to contribute to cleaner and healthier woodlands? Ps, love the terraception build! The snails and millipedes add so much, it's true that you don't really need any additional plants or hardscape elements. :)

[@winddoggo9406]

Feather It's more to filter the water and not let the substrate sink in

[@Luckingsworth]

Feather In a large environment like the planet waste isnt really an issue. And the ecosystem has many niche roles that will feed off of and recycle all possible waste elements. In such a small environment you cant possibly fill all niche roles and a small spike ikna certain waste product would instantly throw off the entire balance making the charcoal necessary. It's the same way aquariums need charcoal filters. It's not that life cant survive without one, just that the life that will take over is not what you want to see.

[@SirEnderGaming]

After having watched a few of your videos, I went to a local store and got supplies to make my own closed terrarium. I currently have 2 small closed terrarium with several types of moss and other forest based plants. It will be fun to see whether they will thrive or not :)

[@rootsnurserycapecod4564]

It is so fun to watch you make these thank you for sharing

[@crystalm4324]

Truly great, it shows that you don’t need a crazy assortment of tropical plants to create an eye catching look. The variety of insects draw the eye and keep you entertained wondering about their lives. That said centipedes are voracious eaters, you may not have much of a clean up crew left in a month!

[@antimedia7008]

I just love this. I have a few miniature monuments, like the eifel tower, big Ben, the coliseum, I've been thinking about putting those in terrariums. I think the miniature Paris with some little critters would be awesome.

[@jayceegudoy1801]

Thanks for sharing! Helpful tips!

[@marls4448]

newly got into terrarium making because of this channel. has become an addicting hobby. South Africa where im from has some interesting things to [put into terrariums. Although in the dry areas its more tough

[@mrdewilliams]

I think this is my favorite terrarium so far. Please keep us up to date on how this one progresses.

[@naturezone1212]

Wow, I'm gonna try this this is so cool! You should make a terrarium with only aquatic plants.
