Misty Cloud Forest Micro Orchid Moss Terrarium

[@SerpaDesign]

I had a lot of fun with this build and experimenting with various techniques. I’m curious to see how it fills in and appears later on. I also can’t wait to bring this up to a larger and more detailed scale that I can’t wait to share. Stay tuned! Enjoy the video, and have a great weekend SerpaSquad!

[@MIKEMYL]

I love your work i have been inspired by you and made many terrarium and vivariums as you teach us❤

[@masonbrowne6796]

Bonsai terrarium please 🙏

[@rexbauman5614]

No bc it is awesome

[@LawsonSoza]

Yo serpa I've really wanted you to make a electric blue and purple crayfish darkwater setupthats overplayed with tons of purple plants of course may as well put in purple and blue neon tetras. Your biggest fan Lawson Soza❤❤❤

[@gavinthompson826]

Please make a bioactive leopard gecko tank, PLEASE!!!!!!! 🥺🥺🥺

[@hideflen]

I agree that this is one of your best "Jungle" works. The tiny plants and the mister really bring it home!

[@MerryMary79]

I’d love to see a larger version. Like a whole orchid scape…

[@PhilokaliaPhotography]

Yes! A huge orchid scape would be incredible!

[@PleurothalliDan]

Nice to see mini orchids getting recognized on the big stage. Awesome setup!

[@bonniew1992]

You have GOT to keep us updated on this one... Pretty please! I love this idea, but i really want to see it after it matures a bit more.🙏❤❤❤

[@AnAmericanComposer]

Today I have a 55gal standard aquarium that I converted into a tropical vivarium for my four Whites Tree Frogs. I've been inspired by you every step of the way, and I continue to want to build better, not only for the wow factor but because I know it makes my froggies happier. Your channel is a gift! Thank you so much for the quality information you provide us.

[@AnAmericanComposer]

I do have a question, though: I took a fake rock small watering dish from Petco and sawed it to make it flat on one side, then gluing the shim I cut off to the bottom to act as a weight differential so it won't put too much pressure on the wall. I want to glue this to the glass of my tank for the frogs so they can bask closer to the heat lamp if they wish, but it just seems to be too heavy to support them without the hot glue peeling away. Is there a good alternative adhesive I can try that's nontoxic and can be applied with frogs present?

[@grackleaudit]

This looks phenomenal, Tanner! I feel like it would be so calming to just chill and enjoy watching the mist curl around the bottom of the container with all the greenery in the background. Awesome work!

[@BigShrimpin416]

I absolutely love micro orchids!!

[@bluedollar5423]

Orchids of any kind are absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@rinrin_2411]

Wow what a MISTerious looking scape...! ;) I love it!!

[@steveneumann32]

Favorite part of the video is how you discuss the process and adjustments made along the way. Bravo!

[@JonCherba]

This is definitely a calming design. Like a zen forest, somewhere I would not mind living. I'm surprised you didn't add springtails or isopods. I'm sure there's a good combo that would work great.

[@rafaelnunez1615]

Perfect way to start every Saturday

[@ashclayton699]

I really appreciate that you very quickly moved past the idea of using the container that inspired the piece in the first place. It says a lot about the creative process as a whole, and goes to show your maturity as an artist!

[@earthwulf]

Hi there. My 20 year old son died and is being turned into soil. I want to make a small self-sustaining terrarium and was told that you were the go-to youtube channel for this sort of project. I want to be able to just put it together, seal it and never open it again. I may try to put a tiny ceramic pot he made in it. I don't know if insects or a bonsai are viable for this, either. I know nothing, I just want part of him to live forever.

[@yourestillhere8162]

I’m so sorry for your loss, this is an amazing way to memorialize him

[@arsenic3382]

Commenting to help boost so he hopefully sees. Sorry for your loss

[@Madijo70]

+

[@kory5179]

He normally does regular maintenance on his set up so it might not look like how you set it up forever. Also the larger the terrarium the longer it will sustain itself. Life in Jars is another YT channel you might want to look at that focuses more on long term terrariums. Both are really great channels though

[@gmfdp4852]

This is the most inspiring way to remember a loved one I've seen. I hope your (and his) creation will flourish for many years to come.

[@AverageEldritchEntity]

How lovely! I feel like adding some cleaning insects would be prudent given how easily mold might take root here, but other than that 10/10! I love these slices of the natural world!

[@Cmthomas9]

Love all the recent projects! Its been great to watch your builds evolve over the years. You have given me a lot of great insight for my own setups so thanks a bunch!

[@jonathansaidon4806]

YES! Thank you for finally doing more with orchids. They are vast and unique

[@Anthony69420]

You inspired me to build a massive paludarium. Thank you for being you and showing people how to capture nature and bring it indoors

[@TheBlakeEverhart]

I watch all of your videos, but I don't comment often. But this one is one of my all time favorites, such a jungley good vibe.

[@jakejippy768]

Do you think you'll do another update video, showing off the animal room and all the setups that have had some time to mature. Those are some of my favorite videos and I feel like we haven't had one in a while

[@alexanderthomas8784]

This was one kf my favorite build videos ever! A) it looked aweskme but B) loved how you showed the oarts that didnt work. Great work

[@michaelrae9599]

Bravo on the use of lighting and shadow to create something truly great.

[@nobodyaskedfortwitterhandles]

I remember a short while after I started watching this channel i had an extremely vivid dream that I still think about to this day. I was walking by myself through a nature trail when i spotted through all the green, a mossy fallen log. I walked up to it, and thought to myself, "man, that's some really good moss!" And then the dream was over. I will never forget it so long as I live.

[@albertvanlingen7590]

This one is beautiful. Really a piece of cloud forest 🌿

[@ProfJCsCritters]

I envy your vision, your tools, and your patience. I hope you post a growth update. I'd actually love to see more growth updates for your terrariums.

[@dahlmasen3084]

That wood piece when you applied the bees wax though🤩

[@MrNarak]

You got magic skill in your hand. Really appreciate your art work.

[@JAFKARNAT]

Love the mist maker, beautiful project. Well done.

[@donnywolf9250]

I work at a flower shop for my part time job.....and the amount of different types of glass the owner has....and now I HAVE...😂 from seeing one and asking her if I can buy it....but then she just gives it to me....I have a bunch of those round glass cylinders like you have in this post and I made a really cool aqua tank out of a long cylinder and planted a bunch off Amazon swords. Looks fantastic. Great video man....Love the new creation!

[@yinnikkuma]

Wow that mist makes it look so magical with that lighting 😍

[@cking8776]

Tanner creativity at it's finest!!! Love your magical microscapes, so captivating & meditative!!! 👍💯👍

[@jamesfranklyn8547]

Absolutely stunning xx such great ideas and composition.

[@davidvitale9338]

Gorgeous! Looks and feels so transformative

[@peterwilkins]

this is so inspiring. great work, man. i love that you show missteps, as well as successes

[@nancydenmark1614]

The mist and the light brings this to life. Love it. Also, interested in what you finally do with the other container.

[@ForLorNVuLgaR]

Orchids! Yes! I cant wait for you to build something with a regular Orchidaceae!

[@chrisreilly1290]

This is a cool design and I do love orchids

[@arthurzackaryabrin]

omg the moss vines are the smartest thing ever!!! I'm so gonna utilize this technice in my own terrarium builds from now on!!!

[@lexiedietz7851]

Awesome job again Tanner! I'm curious about where you keep all of your plants. Would you ever do an office tour? You're the best!!

[@bethanycowan9275]

those vines are incredible

[@AngelaABrown-cd8kd]

You are so talented. I enjoy this very much. I wish I have some of your talent to create my own terrarium. But watching you I learned a lot.

[@cjyoung7372]

It's probably just easier for everyone if you just build them for everyone. What a work of art you are very talented

[@hileylynn9536]

A large version with a water feature/pond/river with orchids would be incredible!!

[@BluetheCoyote1]

This is the earliest I've ever been to be able to get to a video

[@CrossCultural-c7f]

The bonsai wire pushed into the cotton wick is a great idea!

[@sandyloyst1811]

It's really beautiful. I love all your projects. Looking forward to your next video. Thanks Tanner for the experience of this build. Love from Ontario

[@devongonsalves1976]

Your videos inspired my daughter and I..we entered a national competition in our country and she won best environmental science project.. Thanks

[@Disorganized_and_chaotic]

An terrarium video!, happy Saturday to me!

[@imthebusinesscat]

mist-ery, i see what you did there. i love the wood base piece, great build and it's going to look awesome on a bigger scale

[@irishpotato9659]

Looks great, you always inspire me to make my own terrariums, even though I'm not too good at it

[@wispyspirits2158]

This is so gorgeous, I would love to build a cloud forest terrarium someday 💚

[@TheHeadown]

This is one of my favorite builds you´ve ever done,

[@rosiewilliams5923]

This is really living art at it's best. I love,love,love, this ❤👍💯🇺🇸

[@nicholasvellios6555]

Wonderful piece. Simple, yet beautiful.

[@YTApollogames]

i think that dart frogs would look really cool in this

[@1130R.A.P]

Ur the reason I started my channel

[@Rat2rrj]

Low key wanna know your wife's top 5 builds of yours, they're all so beautiful 😍

[@BeautifulEarthJa]

So gorgeous! Hope we get an update when the orchids are blooming!

[@michaelajaros807]

This is so cool! It looks like it's been cut out of nature itself. I can definitely see it next to a waterfall.

[@MyChemRomance]

You are incredibly talented and build some of the coolest things I've ever seen!

[@dshobe720]

Looks like you figured out how to make the fog rise by limiting the wide open top decreasing evaporation rates in the air column. Good work, the wick is also employed well using polyester yarn and it wont break down like the cotton wick does. Crochet or braid the yarn for a thicker vine. I also use it to make rain droplets in my vivs vs spray watering. Much quieter and relaxing.

[@thomasvnl]

Those vines look great Tanner!

[@MiguelJuanez]

One of the best set ups yet!!! Will try this someday soon!

[@angelarobertson7004]

This is so beautiful! You have to update us when the orchid blooms. 😊

[@718Insomniac]

A close up shot of a very wet jungle. Superb man. In the last shot, I can almost envision a scene happening. Really well done.

[@IroStudioGaming]

I’ve been on holiday for a week so this is great I’ve got another video to watch!

[@shanrrosh]

This one is truly beautiful, even before everything has taken over and even without mist there is something about this one that stands out. Those mini orchids are amazing and I have to look into if I am able to get some of those here. Thank you for the video :)

[@maggsrichardson2357]

Love the jungle classic terrarium

[@judymckerrow6720]

Thank you Tanner, stunning as usual! 🦃🍁🍂💚🙃

[@CardiBC]

Tanner you are a true artist, I love to see the cedar wood stand and the jungle vines, it’s a great aesthetic. I hope you use the other container eventually!!

[@ArcaneGinger]

This turned out so pretty!

[@gloriaash7511]

So cool!! I would love to see more builds incorporating misters

[@dndndndndn419]

Have you ever thought of getting a laser-cutter or cnc machine? They require a bit of familiarity with vector files (I used Adobe Illustrator and taught myself.) You’re so creative, I’d love to see what you could do with fully custom enclosures.

[@theJBJ]

I second this.

[@spinzz29]

One of my favorite builds u did so far! Amazing

[@maxcasteel2141]

cant wait to see it down the line

[@goosenewzzz3258]

I love how this turned out

[@BobyChanMan]

I cant believe ive never heard of micro orchids!

[@raymondjacque6594]

Ok but this would be the COOLEST orchid mantis terrarium

[@WiscoMel]

Your talent and imagination never cease to amaze me

[@stampinturtles]

Finally sitting down and can watch this. Very beautiful!! Can’t wait to see how this one grows and matures. ❤

[@pawsonalpetcare]

Wow amazing work! 🌿

[@tinav5987]

Stunning !!🌱🍃

[@squidarcherb9707]

Tanner, have you ever tried making a terrarium WITHOUT moss? I feel like that would be extremely challenging but also very interesting

[@cyndifalk]

I guess I've been at this game a long time - I have almost all the components to create this scape - Including the UNS mister & large glass jars! Very inspiring - Thank you!

[@willh7440]

I’d love to see a set up with more orchids!

[@tess7510]

The black and white failure montage in the beginning reminded me of the as seen on TV products that solve all your problems in life

[@powslasher2562]

exceptional build tanner. love this one

[@SequoiaElisabeth]

Truly a professional job. I love how you've taken your vids to an advanced level for those of us who have some experience. Thanks for all you do!

[@korrawright5781]

I think this is one of the best of your smaller builds! The choice of wood for the base, the container you used, simply beautiful ❤ I want to make one like this someday!

[@toddylu6869]

Yep it’s wonderful!

[@danasmith8557]

Wow that was beautiful!!!!❤

[@cheriallen6522]
