I introduce the African Bullfrog Paludarium! This has to be one of my favorite builds yet. The combination of it and Samson is just perfect! Enjoy! Also let me know what you thought about it?
We love a responsible Earthling who reuses and recycles odds and ends they already have instead of buying more👌 Amazing build as always! Samson is incredible. I find aquatic frogs really quite daunting but you always make everything so simple & easy to understand.
Lol i thought to myself "wow this tank setup is huge for a little toad" and then you brought him in and i was like 👀 "maybe its actually too small for him 😂😂 hes an absolute unit!
Hey Tanner! I love your videos - they have inspired me to start my own terrariums with moss, ferns and basket grass, and more recently, to get my own fish with a bioactive aquarium! One of the things I really appreciate about these videos is your attention to detail, cleanliness and artistic touch. You teach that you can do anything if you take the right steps and prepare carefully. I've noticed over the time you've been filming that you've added the scientific names of plants as you've learned them and included them in text and audio for our own education, too. These videos are so great, thank you for making them!!
I work graveyard in New Zealand, your videos keep me alive during periods of boredom. Loving the great work you put in. Unfortunately i came across your videos 2 weeks too late, i sold my fathers aquarium and gears, your videos gave me ideas and now i regret not keeping the stuff, really a whole new level you have demonstrated. Keep up the good work!
You're so right that he compliments the setup! His dark colours contrasted against the light plants look great! I loved this build and the incorporation of stone. Stunning as always!
I absolutely love the labor of love that went into this project. For days I've been building a patio pond with a waterfall filter feature and I just finished it today. I have guppies, a pleco, and bettas swimming happily in it. I've had some of the fish for over a year and I just wanted to give them an upgrade. So I completely understand why you put so much detail for Sampsons home. You did it because you care about your pets and I respect that. Excellent work!! 😀
It's gorgeous 😍...the details you add are amazing and I love all your builds...I have a banded water snake enclosure I built using a few things from your videos... You don't realize how costly a build like this is until you go out and purchase all of the stuff but it's well worth it in the end. Thanks for sharing
You kept me thoroughly engaged throughout the entire video. This is seriously some high quality content. I truly appreciate the time and effort you take into making such beautiful environments. Keep it up! Still thinking about your recent pond video.
Dude, you are so unbelievably talented! You did an incredible job, Sampson looks so relaxed and at home in that set up. I wish I had a fraction of your skills. 😍 I love your terrariums and now I live your paludariums too! Thanks so much for sharing your talents with us. I'll forever be envious...
That shoreline setup looks really cool. You could tell the water was perfect for him when you put him in there, and he didn't want to get out of his habitat. He loves that lol. It is actually cute.
i just live tio watch you building foryour animals and your fish .. you are so thoughtful as to how you do the building and to what you put in it for them .. i also know that if you were one of these animals or fish you would want your home to be just like the ones that you build .. way to go i just love it
I was watching this completely relaxed and dozing cause your voice is so soothing and then I saw how big that frog was and my eyes peeled open! Damn, lucky frog.
Toads absolutely need moisture. Just because they don't live in water doesn't mean they don't need water. Keeping a moist enclosure and access to a water dish is an absolute necessity for keeping toads. Some frogs just prefer to get their moisture from the substrate they bury into rather than just sitting in water. Toads, pacman frogs, pixies like Sampson, and tomato frogs are good examples of that lifestyle 🐸
You are so awesome but you know what I really love about you the heart you have for a frog and for all the other animals we need more people like you in this world God bless you
Him: this setup won’t be very heavily planted *proceeds to cover it with plants Plants are life plants are love They can almost compare to Shrek which says a lot
I loved when you said “Samson” while it was zoomed in on him because he looked so innocent and the way you said it just made it better, I also like the way Samson pounces
Magnificent Bullfrog, he is so lucky to have you having made this wonderful home for him, the perfect pet if you know what to do, thank you for sharing your Art work
I built one too for my African Bullfrog, but she has out grown it now. I just love all the tips you gave in your set up! I have a 125 gallon aquarium that I just bought for her. It sounds big, but my frog will grow enough to still feel "free in nature" with my soon set up for her. It's going to take time to build, but it will be well worth it!!
Hey guys, the foam he is using is super expensive there is a red version of the same foam for literally 1/3rd of the price not many retailers carry the foam he was using so yea the red can of great stuff is easier to acquire. And if you use the red can just get black/brown silicone it worked for me
Your work is so beyond inspiring❤️ I recently picked up aquascaping as a hobby and now I’m looking into terrarium builds after seeing a few of your videos
Great set up, thanks for sharing. Couple of questions: A- how often you feed the frog? B- did you collected the isopods from your garden? C- how often will you recommend a water change?
Can't help with the other questions, but I've seen him order isopods online before, so he's either needing more than he can gather, or just ordering them. Check out his video on the Rubber Ducky Isopods--so cute & tempting!
I'm curious, where do you obtain all of your plants/micro organisms that "clean up"? I'm interested in possibly trying something like this - but I'm not sure where I'd get materials.
Hello! I'm not SerpaDesign obviously but I've been getting into bioactive setups myself and there's several places online where you can order them. Check sites like Josh's Frogs for springtails and several species of isopod, although you may be in for a bit of a wait if they're out of stock. They usually always have springtails at the very least, for a very fair price!
AquaTK I know I’m not skilled in making terrariums but the thing that came to my mind is to do speed builds of new terrariums. But your channel is very good, I love the cichilds. Your probably asking Sherpa huh?
@@tomi327 you could start by not spamming the comments and attempting to disguise your self-promoting as a legitimate question. It really bothers me when people try to snipe subscribers from popular channels. Want as many subs as him? Create engaging content and build your channel in an honest way.
Wow! We've a young Michigan J. Pixy. It currently is in a 20g tall. After seeing your masterpiece I will get on something similar to yours. Thank you for the inspiration!
You probably won't even read that comment, but today I made a cactus terrarium for the first time in my life. I've been watching your videos for a couple of days now, and seeing you just made me want to try.
This looks great! One suggestion- one can use Matala Filter Cubes for a base instead of the grate + Styrofoam. This allows for the tank to be less stressed due to replacing heavy rock. It also is sturdy enough to hold rock and substrate above it while allowing for water to pass through.
Wow you are amazing.... I have an american bullfrog and a toad and a red eared slider...and about 15 African Cichlid tanks....learning a lot from you. Thank you.
Bullfrog mansion!!! Samson looks like hes LOVING IT and I am too! This is an absolutely beautiufl set up. You put so much effort and detail into your set ups and it really really shows! I always like to think that the animals that live in any of them appreciate your hard work just as much as we do :D
Omg I love that! Matala mat would make the perfect false bottom for emperor, or Asian forest scorpions. I’ve been looking for a drainage layer they wouldn’t be able to dig up and destroy when they burrow because I’ve seen them rip through window screening like nothing before. Thank You Tanner!
Oh I soooo enjoyed watching part of the creation of Samsons home, "The African Bullfrog Paludarium". I hope you keep us up to date on his adventures. Thanks

Lovin the look of this paludarium
i didnt know african bullfrogs loved water that much, i thought they just liked the muddy banks near ponds and rivers
Really nice
Love it
Man i wish i could do some stuff like this. All i got is a 10gal and i cant get any big tanks until we move to a better place
"I'm gonna keep it simple"
-Puts whole garden in tank-
I love it 😂
Exactly what i was thinking😂😂 but it looks amazing so you know😂

What to do to make my channel as good as this one here, I am asking for constructive feedback.
@@tomi327 sure I'll subscribe and check you out. Hopefully you do tanks like this for other reptiles other than toads and frogs though.
@@tomi327 definitely better thumbnails, more interesting camera angles, more adventurous builds
Bullfrog is an absolute UNIT
They get absolutely massive. Had a wild one in our garden pond that was the size of a torso. Beast!
Me: Won't the frog eat the isopods?
Samson: * eats EFFING MICE *
That's EXACTLY what went through my head. LOL
He might but don’t worry they breed (:
It would just happen to be a small snack if he gets ahold of one
Raccoon Rebellion it was just a joke

Will I ever make an African bullfrog paludarium? Probably not. Do I click as soon as I see the notification? Yes.
Samson is a very lucky frog to have someone who cares so much about his happiness and living conditions. Well done!
If I was a frog i definitely would want to live in a tank scaped by this guy.
I'm not a frog but I think I want to live in it anyway.
@@gardeninginthedesert I am a frog and that is my dream home.
I want to reincarnate into a frog and get adopted by this guy!
This content is the stuff I subbed for.
No clickbait
No useless chatter
And Great Commentaru
Would love to see you do a MUD SKIPPER SETUP...
This would be cool
YAS!
Yees
OMG yessss! I'd love to see that
Agreed
Amazing. Your paludariums are always incredible creations.
Ryan Madaris "You gotta keep it simple."
Me: awe look at the set up
*frog gets dropped in*
Me: OH LAWD HE A CHUNKY BOI OH LAWDY OMG
That frog is very lucky to have a palladium builder like this guy... great job on it! 👍🐸
5 star accommodation for amphibians!

Hi ants Canada:) I’m a big fan!
I absolutely love how detailed the videos are and how they just show everything done. Its not like steps are really skipped.

The trick is to buy everything you can in bulk so that it spans across many projects and thus reduces cost.
@@SerpaDesign thanks for the advice😉....I'll try that
Yasss water snakes are awesome
Each and every pauludarium you make is like a whole new world for all of your pets! Its amazing how many varieties you make as well!!
These are my favorite videos that he does, where he makes an enclosure for his animals from scratch. So cool.
Same
If we'd made homes for ourselves like you do for plants/animals, the world would be amazing to live in
You kept me thoroughly engaged throughout the entire video. This is seriously some high quality content. I truly appreciate the time and effort you take into making such beautiful environments. Keep it up! Still thinking about your recent pond video.

This is pretty cool! I bet any bullfrog would be happy to live there
Always enjoy the music you use in these videos. It's not loud and invasive. 80's synth is always a win.
I have never seen such an awesome scape for with such robust plants
I have no idea why I like these videos.
Probably because they are quite calming.
Damn I literally just got back into your videos today, and you've blessed us with yet another video? Brilliant.
haha i think he really likes it! it’s nice to see people like you taking time and patience to make sure these animals have the best homes!
Amazing set up and the bull frog definitely loves it. All of your set ups are just quality, keep up the good work
That shoreline setup looks really cool. You could tell the water was perfect for him when you put him in there, and he didn't want to get out of his habitat. He loves that lol. It is actually cute.
Another great video Tanner.
If my wife saw me feed a bull 🐸 a mouse carcass, the ambush predator and his Paludarium would be in the backyard shed 🤣.
LOLOL!
i just live tio watch you building foryour animals and your fish .. you are so thoughtful as to how you do the building and to what you put in it for them .. i also know that if you were one of these animals or fish you would want your home to be just like the ones that you build .. way to go i just love it
Dang, Samson’s got a whole team of Butlers working for him!
I was watching this completely relaxed and dozing cause your voice is so soothing and then I saw how big that frog was and my eyes peeled open! Damn, lucky frog.
I like how 99% of amphibians have to stay wet and then toads are just sitting there with completely dry skin 😂
Toads absolutely need moisture. Just because they don't live in water doesn't mean they don't need water. Keeping a moist enclosure and access to a water dish is an absolute necessity for keeping toads. Some frogs just prefer to get their moisture from the substrate they bury into rather than just sitting in water. Toads, pacman frogs, pixies like Sampson, and tomato frogs are good examples of that lifestyle 🐸

Also, beautiful setup.
You are so awesome but you know what I really love about you the heart you have for a frog and for all the other animals we need more people like you in this world God bless you
God bless you too!

Plants are life plants are love
They can almost compare to Shrek which says a lot

Awesome job! Love seeing someone care for their animals as well as you do!

You put so much effort and time into making his home! I'm sure he's very happy! This frog is MAD spoiled

Lol this one is pretty small actually. Google some pictures
Looks amazing! Compliments Samson well!
One day I will have my own frog paludarium. Thanks for the inspiration, favorited.
