      I have enjoyed some of your videos. Your thumbnails are clickbait however. Small dribbles are not waterfalls. It really sets people up for disappointment. Why don't you make a real waterfall, I don't understand why you have fake it.

    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?

    • @Archivun
      @Archivun Год назад +7

      @@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

    • @Archivun
      @Archivun Год назад +11

      @@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!

    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!

  • @rgilroy1909

    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.

    cool idea for glass if you cant get to a local hardware store, but my local hardware stores have glass thats 5 to 6 mm thick or thicker, perfect for terrariums or aquariums, and its probably just as cheap as buying those glass picture frames. I get aquarium glass lids cut for all my tanks and its usually no more than a few dollars for a rather large piece of glass. like 12 x 18. only problem is sharp edges but with some sand paper you can sand down the edges smooth and it will be exactly the size you need.

    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.
