Thank you for this, it came out beautifully and seems like something your average person could build. Especially with the help of your tutorial.
Thaksz for the list for matias like a subscriber to your channel
A huge thanks!
Anyone who wants to starts a project like this, don't get de motivated when something doesn't go your way and don't rush anything. Also a little tip if you want to add animals to terrariums like these, don't buy the animals too fast, most people are hyped and want to finish it as quickly as possible but do not rush. Buy the animals after your terrarium is fully finished
How long does a build like this usually last?
@@CleverBryan1 well it al depends on how you build it. If you use materials that will get damaged when exposed to moisture for a long time, it won't last more then 1 year. But if you make it from strong silicone and strong adhesives and use materials that can endure water damage and air exposure then you won't have a problem. It will go many years, it will outlast your desire to look at it and at that point you'll probably decide yourself that you want to change things up
@@CleverBryan1 also if you plan on adding a pump, make sure you have acces to it. The last thing you want is your pump breaking and not being able to take it out, and believe me it WILL break. Those pumps are so weak, I tried many different brands and every single one has a chance to break. Also I don't recommend building a water + land area if it's your first build, working with water is a HUGE pain. Making your land area waterproof is a must to prevent your plants from having root rot. Your paludarium will stink if your substrate gets wet. Just start simple and normal size, not small not large. Just simple land terrarium, and aquariums. Later you can combine the two when you have more experience with building. Good luck!
@@Archivun this is great info, thanks
If you want to add animals don't use this glue, Foam, Silicone, or glass. It is not made for animals. It is toxic!
this guy seems like the type of guy with a green robe and vines and jungle trees in his room, he then shows you his collection of little earths (terrariums). Truly, the terrarium sigma
I’ve been watching your videos for 2 hours straight without any skip! It’s been a long time that I could sit still and enjoy tutorial videos like this. One 👍 is not enough for you. Thank you! This is truly an artist’s work!
I really love the way this turned out. Also, thank you for the detailed guide to cutting glass and assembling the container with silicone - I'm not innately handy, so this is very helpful.
Glad you found it helpful! It’s definitely not as hard as some may think:)
Thank you so much for this! My husband and I are always watching videos like these as we are very into plants, animals and terrarium/ vivarium type enclosures. But most of the how to's don't show every step, or require more money than we have to spend on it. We watched this so excited.
instead of one waterfall like other people....
You did two. You are truly amazing ggs
Had to be done!😅 thanks for watching:)
I love that you used all Aquatic plants in this. Stunning
Glad you like it! Aquatic plants are beautiful:)
You always go the extra mile just for our entertainment thank you terrerium designs also you should definitely add those vines
I do my best🙏 thank you!
This is not all for entertainment, it's more for inspiration MAAKE YOUR OWN SCAPE BRUHH!!
@@shivangyadav6290😶
A bright plant or mini orchid above the flow of the waterfall would give the whole thing a pop of color, just as you’d find in some jungle areas and make the whole thing more appealing. One piece like that definitely stands out!
You are making more and more entertaining videos every time
Thanks!
Awesome. Thank you for sharing! Planning my winter project and want to add a waterfall. I've done it before, but wasn't 100% happy with how it turned out. You gave great tips and so easy to do on a smaller budget. 🙌
love this, i think you forgot to mention how did you hide the pump cable
Even though I DIY a lot of things, you have still come up with ideas, materials and techniques I didn’t think of! And the terrariums are beautiful! I’m just starting to build bioactive enclosures (for my jumping spiders), and will definitely keep watching your builds for more ideas!
So easy and amazing ❤ thanks for teaching us
Tbh i didn't expect a lot, but i got surprised, that's amazing!!!
This is so amazing!!!! I love this!!!!
I must say that each of your creations is a source of inspiration for me. I've already made a terrarium with a pond (like the one you proposed in a previous tutorial) and I'm really satisfied with the result thanks to your advice. Now I can't wait to make a terrarium like this. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations with us🥰
Really glad I could inspire you! Thank you for watching😃
Just brilliant, allways enjoy your work, best on youtube I think.
You make your work look as near as possible to how it would look outside in the wilds
Thank you! Really glad you enjoyed it😃
This look absolutely gorgeous as always! It always exceeds my expectations and turns out way better than I thought! Also I think the vines are a good idea :]
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it:)
love the idea of using frameless picture frames for the build. Great idea about tapeing down the ruler. I noticed you didn't "tap" the glass before the snap. HINT: after scoring the glass, use the ball tap to tap the glass along the score line, ensuring a strait and even edge when you snap the glass.
*taping
*straight
Its so pretty i love it
This is so prettyyy!
believe me, as an IT professional, this will keep me relax and sane,
Very clever use of the filter foam and the spray foam! Maybe a small species of crypt like crypt larva that has been grown above water would be nice, a nice light green and different texture
Awesome setup! Your creation inspired me!
Thank you!
You make it look so easy! I might try to create something similar to this by the end of this year, and it would be my christmas gift from me, to me. 😁
Thanks! That sounds like a good idea!😅😃
Quick trick for chalking use a damp finger when cleaning up your joints. Water help you not to drag to much at a time and your finger will glide easily.
Fantastic work!
Thanks!
Wow such clever and easy way make water fall. Am go try this idea my self for my tropical frogs terrariums
Thanks! Yes definitely give it a go:)
Great design. It really makes me want to build one myself soon ^^
Thanks, you should!
Great one man, I enjoyed every second of the video! 😄
Thank you!
wow amigo , genial lo que has creado :)
Looks great! Can try adding fittonia for a pop of colour !
Merci énormément pour ce tuto 🙏♥️
Sangat indah terrariumnya.. 👍
Thank you!
This is so cool❤
Thanks!
Cómo todo lo que he visto antes está es una obra hermosa "gracias" bye!
Thanks!
No problem, thank you for the support!!
I absolutely love these videos my only complaint is the thumbnail shows the waterfall wide and flowing like a wild one I'm hoping to achieve that in my build and would love to see how it's done
This is superb, I will be trying to do something like this myself, thanks. Could it work without the removable front panel?
Good video do you use a water mister for your aquatic plants like anubias and bucephalandra as I was going to make one with ciano cube only problem I have my lid as cut outs of the lid so my wire can come out the back then you pull of a side panel put wire in there and put the side panel back on as this tank as a floating base and the lights fit in to the base and looks like and upside down letter L what's the best way to keep the humidity in cheers
RIP to the springtail in front of the tank @ 14:36
That's awesome. Thanks for your vids! Just getting into the hobby and youtube suggested you since i follow SerpaDesign.
Looking to eventually do something like this but starting small. I'll do the nano palurarium first.
So two questions. For that nano paludarium, how and how often to do a water refresh. And which grit sandpaper you use? I've got lots of 600 grit. That should do right?
Keep up the good work. Looking forward to learning this cool hobby by watching you.
Bro this is so addicting.
How do you fertilize these plants? Is it necessary or do the spring tales provide fertilizer?
@TerrariumDesigns >>> Great video...👍
GREAT!!! Do you think that expanding foam is toxic for fhishes in case i use in water with them? 👍
Wow I could never do this good lol
If you get black plastidip and spray the back of the foam it’ll look great. It is aquarium safe according to its white paper.
I wonder how much of this I can use here for pets such as tropical frogs, lizards, Madagascar hissing cockroaches, etc. They'd love a tank like this. I would need to make a few adjustments first but I'd love to learn this.
I have ruined like 4 pieces of glass 😭 but at last I have the pieces I need… great video!
It’s all trial & error:)
Im inlove with how this turned out🙌 thank you for your effort!! I was questioning if you happen to sell these beautiful scapes?
Thank you! I don’t sell ones like these but have a few small terrariums available on my website:)
Good job! And where did you get the Frameless Picture Frame?
How does the water stay fresh? Is the filter foam enough?
Hello! Beautiful little ecosystem ❤ can I ask where the power cord for the pump comes out? I can see it in the final version and I wondered how it works? Thank you 😊
Will it also work with lotus flowers?
How often do you need to top off the water, and what type of water did you use?
does the java moss need to be acclimated to emersed growth before this?
Whats was the measurements for the glass?❤❤perfect size
How Do you change the water or not at all? Just topping off?
Hi I want to ask something, I made one tank before and planted it, but the lid I have is not fully sealed the tank. theres a tiny gap between the cover and the tank, is it okay? or is it has to be fully sealed?
Which glue are you using? And that long narrow applicator nozzle, how the hell does it not get clugged up?
Tedium design I have a question where did the cable go
How do you clean the filter ??
Have you tried using pond expanding foam that’s black instead of yellow?
What do you use for light
Where do you buy your glass?
Do you let the pump run 24 hours and do you keep
Under a plant light
I wonder if it would be ok to use clear acrylic? I am addicted to these videos!
Problem could be that acrylic can absorb moisture and tends to warp with the humidity
Where did you buy the glass?
Where did u get the glass from?
Is the expanding from safe
Very nice. It hurts that in Mexico the plants are sold very expensive.
Is there any animals that would be fine to add to this build?
where do you get the little bugs?
Can a terrarium closed with normal terrarium plants have a waterfall in it ?
What about a air circulation, is not necessary?
אומנות😍
How is the foam filler plant-friendly? That stuff is a chemical cocktail.
I just made my first terrarium! Where can i find springtails and plants like fittonia?
google is your friend, really easy to search online and many many places to get all the supplies
❤
Hello, I’ve never build an terrarium but I want to start to. Now I have an question: How did u hide the kable? Is there a small hole in the back or how did you do that? Maybe someone can help me😅. (I love ur Videos btw ❤❤)
Thanks! Yes it goes up the back & there is a small hole:)
I can use it aqua soil instead if crushed black lava rock??
You can but make sure it’s fully dried out first. If it’s damp it can effect the silicone curing
Where did you route the power cord to the pump?
It goes up the back left corner & out a small hole
Maybe try a fogger
You should add a small snail or salamander or small snake or something
Did you put a lid on it or is it open
There is a lid:)
How tank size bro ???
Loved it but next time add some color like a show piece! Like a Lilly or orchid
Hi, Is the foam save for animals?
Once dry it’s perfectly safe:) it’s often used in dart frog & gecko vivariums
@@TerrariumDesigns thx
Great work, with some stones on the front to cover the bottom sponge would look even better :)
Good thinking!
Should of used black acrylic paint for the sides
How much did this cost? As I want to build this but not spend to much
This was roughly about £65
Tank + silicone £15
Rocks £5
Wood £5
Pump £10
Plants & moss £20
Filter foam £5
Expanding foam£5
Wawwaaaw
What insects or bugs should I add to this??
A good place for campire crabs 😅

When you use silicone better using spray glas cleaning be easy to take silicone
How do you crush your lava rock?
use bigger lava rock
@@NaMchuRobione No
Then no :)
You can use a hammer 🔨
