This video is the first of a series where I plan on building up the levels of an ecosystem in this enclosure. If you plan building this yourself, I will gladly answer any questions you have in the comments below.
This project was built over the course of about a month and there were weeks of preparation beforehand. It's still not finished, and I plan on adding more plants/hardscape overtime. If I had only one piece of advice I could give it would be to TAKE YOUR TIME. It took me hours and hours to get the hardscape and plants right. It will be worth it in the long run.

Only _one of the best⁉️_ Who's better besides Serpadesign? I would love to find some more channels doing super high end vivariums like this‼️ And I only put Tanner over the Dr. because 1. He gives *_way more detail_* on how to actually build his setups step by step and 2. While the Dr. _might_ have Serpa beat in complexity/beauty on some projects, more of Serpa's builds maximize efficiency and reduce the arbitrary "bells & whistles" (which leads to less maintenance and upkeep expenses) And he goes out of his way to make them as cost efficient as possible so regular people like me could realistically make something like this ourselves! While Dr. Plants is also very skilled, he streamlines his personal labor/diy alterations by shelling out top $ on all his materials! 🤑 I know I can't afford to shell out _thousands_ on enclosures just to make it an easier build/slightly cleaner end result 😂 Especially when I can make one that looks/functions 90% as good for a fraction of the $ plus few extra days/weeks of my own labor 🙃

This is epic! I wasn't really interested very much at the beginning, but for some reason kept watching. But by the end, it was becoming a strong and stronger desire to make one of these. How much was the tank itself. That is where I will have to start, as I'm not exactly money rich right now. But would do this piece by piece if I do it. Wondering if there are any deals on these tanks from anywhere. I'd guess you researched this quite a bit before getting started. Thanks for introducing such a great project to the masses.

I have a few questions though: 1) Do the plants need any heat / UV light to grow? 2) How often do you feed the animals inside the paludarium? 3) How do you make sure the animals get enough nutritions to live? You really inspired me and thanks a lot I’d you would ever answer these questions.

Very nice build, one of the nicest I have seen. Thank you for taking the time to video log this build, not easy. I have built different types of vivarium's over several decades, and fish scapes, fresh and salt. In fact, I owned an aquarium store out in Los Angeles in 1995. So tons of experience with submersible pumps, and imo, you shot yourself in the foot by not making that pump removable. Either for cleaning, service...they do crap out from time to time, rare, but it has happened to me.

Hey I really like the build and am planning on doing a similar one but had a question. How do you service the pump in this situation? It looks like not only is the pump under the dirt the pump coord is behind the silicone background? Does this mean if it breaks you will have to get a whole new pump and put it in the front? Also just curious, any reason you chose to use the terrarium version of this enclosure instead of the paludarium version allowing for deeper water/digging area?

This is such a well done paludarium! Ive been doing weeks of research on aquariums but after realizing I have a bird that will probably try to get into a tank, ive decided to go with this option. How much would you say this cost? excluding the tank and plants? Edit: Would you also consider putting a carnivorous plant such as a Venus flytrap or lowland nepenthes in there?
@TheDrPlants
@TheDrPlants 2 жыл бұрын
Without the plants, animals, and tank, this tank was cheap. I’d say it would cost $800 for the materials on the high end. You could do it for FAR cheaper. I do not think Venus flytraps would do well in this environment. On the other hand, some tropical nepenthes species do great on vivariums!

Thanks! It honestly doesn’t matter what sand you use as long as its aquarium safe. I used one of CaribSea

I’m Planning to start a small crab tank (10 gallon, at least 1 or 2 crabs) once my dad rehomes his fish to a bigger tank and I came across your vampire crab videos while trying to find care for fiddler crabs. You’ve inspired me to build a tank like this in the future. I hope one day I’ll have the time money and patience to make one myself. Thank you for the inspiration

Love the videos. I was laughing when the saw hit the point you couldn't saw and the clips cut. Working with that foam for diy projects is so messy. I made stepping stones that I corporated the tiny crumbs for a strong , lightweight concrete mix.
