[@TerrariumDesigns]

Check out my Ebook, It’s perfect for beginners! terrariumdesigns.co.uk/products/ebook

[@mellewedin8221]

It would be super cool, if you did a large build like 20 or 40 gallons.

[@TravelersTour_TT]

Ok!

[@saulmassey2305]

I have a disability and a chronic pain problems, bit tricky using my hands, but after finding your videos and as theres no rush with anything; you have given me a hobby and I can't tell you how much it's helping my general wellbeing .so a big thank you 🎉🎉

[@liddytheweeb]

I’m recently getting into terrariums for the same reason. It’s an easy to care for source of dopamine that’s pretty to look at and won’t die immediately when I’m in a flare up or depressive episode.

[@Marie_Danielle]

Yes, it looks like a true slice of nature as you said... I like that it is simple to do with many free collected stuff.

[@alwayspositive999]

Beautifully done- would be nice to see how you take care of the terrarium after the plants/ moss have grown - thanks

[@TheSithApprentice]

Wow such a big terrarium thanks for listening to my idea you should do one that is desert or one that is a swamp that would be really cool and you could even add creatures that fit those ecosystems

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thank you! Some good ideas:)

I kept and bred fish for years, but as I age and now don't have the space, energy, or time for another 125 main display with breeders everywhere and so on, not to mention I was having fish faster than I could get rid of them, I'm excited to try a small starter terrarium. I have a 2 gallon "cookie jar", the drainage layer, the barrier, and a commercial potting soil mixed with a zilla bedding product for substrate. I'm going out locally to a forest for moss, leaf litter, local rocks and twigs, and a bit of "dirt" to add to the substrate. What I've not found at local pet stores or aquarium shops is a springtail or isopod culture. Will the local dirt and leaf litter provide those critters ? If it works out, I would ultimately like to add a dart frog or tree frog or maybe two. As with aquariums, I know it needs to cycle and settle before making those types of additions. Really enjoying these videos as I never considered something this small and potentially so diverse in the aquarium hobby with filters, sumps, pumps, 50 gallon water changes, testing water parameters, etc, etc. Thank You.

[@Sylkis89]

I didn't know about colourful springtails! That's so cool and makes me want to get some :D

[@Wholewhale]

We love your terrariums. You're doing great on them. Why did this terrarium have holes in the lid?

[@ATurtle367]

I think it’s because they have animals I might be wrong though

[@icuber7431]

This is a forset in a bowl = A M A Z İ N G

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thank you! Glad you like it:)

[@Loganmm23]

😅

[@JawsonKendricks]

‘Forset’

[@morneschaap2944]

Awesome build. Could look at it for hours!

[@BLUEGREEN65]

Really beautiful!!! I’ve ordered supplies from different places and as soon as everything arrives, I’m going to try my hand at a couple of terrariums.

[@Fp3rulez]

It would be cool if you mada a live video of making a terrarium!

[@antonellatundo6803]

Your creations are always a source of inspiration! To thank you for the time you dedicate to us, I bought your book!

[@withlovenaza]

I love your terrariums! This can be my new favorite ♡

[@0rigamidragon694]

I bought your ebook and have made three terrariums using it, and a month later they are all thriving! The nerve plant I put in it even flowered! Do you have any advice on orchidariums?

[@TripleHeadedSheep]

Loving this build!

[@amilamaliduwa]

I love it 🤩 thank you 🇱🇰

[@TerrariumDesigns]

I'm glad you like it & thanks for watching😃

[@theseaworldd]

Beautiful Aquatic 🥣

[@ovenfore8444]

I love the ferns, especially the asparagus fern, looks like a real tree. Where can I get them

[@김테라리움.색소폰연]

It's an honor to appreciate your best work today. I have a question.I wonder if the water used to wash the moss first is different from the water used to wash it later.

[@igorgilza]

Several months ago I tried to make a closed terrarium with a boston fern. It wasn't big, couple big leaves and several smaller. The conditions were pretty normal as for a terrarium but several weeks later leaves started to go brown, but not crispy like in low humidity, and eventually it was all brown and the terrarium smelled pretty bad so I removed it. Even though I had a boston fern in a pot on a window just beside that terrarium. What could be the reasons of a fern dying in a closed terrarium? Because I really wanted to use the fern in my builds, divided bigger plant into three and now they're taking a lot of space on my window and I don't know what to do with them))

[@jrbm670]

Love the video keep it up

[@josejuanlopezguerrero6215]

Este hermoso terrario y su fauna es maravilloso, como otros trabajos y hoy se algo más de ésto que en verdad es artístico "gracias por el artista que los diseña"

[@bharetahuja]

Oh my god this is amazing u deserve more than 50k subs. u have a new subscriber that’s for sure

[@FrogFrogFrogFrogFroggy]

hiya! how can i get moss to grow faster in my garden? i love the bowl

[@saibadog]

If you keep a large quantity of the substrate, is it worth introducing the springtails to the mix? Will they multiply and also act as a supply of springtails that you can periodically add substrate to?

[@Tinnerito]

Where did you get your profile picture from? And what is it?😮 Just curious.

[@eddies5675]

Brilliant stuff, have you added a predator or have any with centipedes or any other invertebrates in? Cheers

[@LilCheese0611]

Will any plant work with your substrate later?

[@JackReade-h5x]

I love you videos.I have watched almost all you videos and i am very interested in make a terrarium.

[@lafran3371]

...En el futuro, habrá libro en español? 🤗🇨🇱 Gracias. 🙏 Namasté

[@cryptic9233]

Hey, where do you get all the plants from? Just from your local store or somewhere on Amazon?

[@frankw9836]

Do you have to cut the plant permanently as they grow ?

[@corydora2894]

are small snails dangerous for terrariums, or will they work like springtails as detritivores?

[@bulamondal3288]

Is sphagnum moss absolute necessary???

[@quickpawmaud]

What sorts of predators are good for terrariums? I am looking to build my first one. I have been watching Homemade Ecosystems channel too. He adds milipedes, centipedes, snails, and earthworms to his terrariums. Centipedes are kinda scary to me though.

[@trebliWsaaM]

How do you keep you springtail stash alive? In that plastic container with some treebark? I wanne make some terrariums but not all at ones so i want to have some in stock for later use. Any tips?

[@trebliWsaaM]

Nvm, I just purchased your e-book and it explained it very well.

[@georgeglencross7657]

Hi, i have a question. When making the substrate, does the coco fibre have to be bone dry?

[@haydenanderson9881]

Youre going to want to rehydrate it for 20 minutes

[@thedoomlord8618]

Good sir, are your links still working? Tried to check out your ebook link, but it always only opens an "about:blank" page

[@BananaBotanists]

The predator could be a nice role for the bumblebee millipede

[@frankw9836]

sometimes you have holes in your lid, sometimes not??

[@TravelersTour_TT]

Maybe add a antlion or a grasshopper

[@Kirbsmate11]

I love ur vids

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Thank you:)

[@kylekaupang7646]

Why not seal it?

[@vickydomingo1240]

To be honest I had a good predator that can keep the spring tails isopods populations in check add a Queen ant in there so ants can get honeydew meet aka isopods spring tails and add a giant millipedes only 2 If there populations are louds add a millipede predator

[@nedflanders2940]

What type of predator could you add to this terrarium?

[@rekhanandan4675]

snails and a milipide

[@TravelersTour_TT]

One day i will get a pet snapping turtle,green anoles, a isopod terrarium,betta&guppy aquarium and last a backyard bug home(i will make a video of it.)

[@purpleprincess5995]

💜👍

[@Mothrazpolski]

Alpaka

[@squishasaurus1176]

I have a small tarium

[@eminpolat82]

How about a big one with a real tree inside?

[@jaiamarie]

Let us know if any of those bugs escaped.

[@Isaac-px1jx]

If it is large enough you should put in dart frogs!

[@Trezdenofficial]

Add a predator

[@CarterSoble]

Diddy?

[@Trezdenofficial]

@@CarterSoble nah drake

[@animagirl1236]

I think the fact that the bugs got a short lifespan (some of them) arl helps since they lay eggs before

[@Xavierdog]

Wwwww😊

[@JarMaster]

[@Trezdenofficial]

Can you pin me

[@brajonprater]

do your terrariums stink

[@TerrariumDesigns]

Nope not at all, a healthy terrarium should smell the the forest
