Please help me learn to make them that is something I would really enjoy doing and I'm an old lady that would be something I can do and hopefully make a little extra money doing it
I love that you did this entire build without the use of expanding foam. That cork background looks absolutely stunning, this is the technique I've been looking for!
This vivarium is beautiful. I love the spiderwood. However after the frog, the log is the star of the show. I’ve never seen a piece of driftwood that looks like Godzilla before. So cool!
Loving the content! Just an idea that I haven't seen anyone try, what about a terrarium centered around chillies and other spicy plants. I don't know if it would work but it might be worth a try!
C'est vraiment superbe! Comme tu dis 'breath taking'! J'aime particulièrement ce que tu fais pour donner au background de liège un aspect naturel. J’apprécie aussi qu'on peut voir que tes arrangements fonctionnent vraiment avec une vue du résultat 4 mois plus tard. Continue.
I own Whites Tree Frogs (Kent, UK) and never heard you could get cork panels! Would have REALLY helped with my build rather than spray foam. Whites need a less humid environment so had great fun finding plants that survive in that climate (English ivy, golden pothos, arrowhead etc). Amazing vid as always
Always enjoy watching your new videos every weekend. Another gorgeous design that i would love to recreate one day for poison dart frogs as those are one of my favorite animals
I loved watching this build! I'm halfway through a large viv build and it's my first, so watching how to plant the viv was really helpful. It was nice to see a build by someone else from the UK too!
Great setup! I really enjoy your channel. I especially love how you always wait to post your videos until the tanks have matured for a couple of months. I'd love to see more on Grogu and on your other frogs, if you can oblige!
I think it looks awesome, and I especially appreciate the links to UK sites for products used. The one thing I'd add is branches, both horizontal and vertical as it currently looks more suitable for Dart frogs than Tree frogs. It'll also provide extra places for moss and other plants to be added :)
absolutely beautiful build, you perfectly showcased an inexpensive build for hobbyists who work on tight budgets but have a lot of terrariums to build, top notch
Been absolutely loving your videos lately. Inspired me to try and make my own little terrarium, but it’s so amazing to see how big your setups can get! So cool, thank you for sharing your knowledge and art!
I wish I saw your channel before setting up my whites tree frog enclosure. The cork method of making backgrounds as opposed to expanding foam would have made their enclosure so much better. Going to have to do a redesign soon!
It looks amazing! What I miss in many terrariums like this is ferns and horsetails. I find them being the archetype plants in jungle and woodlands together with moss. And they add to that prehistoric vibe that a junglesetting gives me. Maybe they are difficult to grow in terrariums I don't know, I'm just an observer, viewer... Looking forward to the next video!
I've never tried horsetails in a terrarium, but I have a fern in my isopod terrarium and it's pretty easy. Not the easiest plant I've EVER dealt with, but not hard either.
I will never make or own one of these tanks. I just watch your videos. I love the use of plants, sculptures, and building materials to create these oasis points. I enjoy the build and design. I do enjoy unique plants and designing with paper and building materials, so understand what you are doing. I just don't usually take 3 to 4 months to build a project LOL. I find these relaxing enough to put me to sleep at the end of the video. Thanks for the no music or spinning editing. You cut down my Trazodone use.
As for plant suggestions, maybe something like a warm growing lepanthes would look great? There's tons of cool miniature orchids that would look great in this tank.
The hardscape is already impressive, but the plant selection? Wow, it really looks like a scene in a Costa Rica cloudforest, with species that could be seen actually growing together in nature! Personally, I'd add some epiphytic Mesoamerican miniature ferns and orchids to complete the look. 🙌
Oh qué bien... Hermoso terrario y el huésped que lo habita. Y como todo lo que este amigo realiza es absolutamente admirable, y para variar hoy aprendí gracias a él, algo nuevo "muchas gracias por compartir sus conocimientos con nosotros" ¡Bye!
En verdad este amigo es un artista de éste fantástico mundo natural. Muchas gracias por enseñar a elaborar y aconsejar de materiales fáciles de comprar y uno mismo construir "gracias amigo"
As a beginning enthusiast with both terrariums and vivariums, this is one of my favorite build videos so far! (And I've watched HOURS of them.) I love that the way you put together the background was so simple and accessible. It's nice to feel like I could do something like this too! The plant selections were absolutely superb, including the later additions. Peperomias are some of my favorites. And using the spiderwood to make those roots down the walls and the back was an amazing touch!
I’m so glad I found your channel… And I’ve been doing this stuff since… 2007 or ‘08? Since I was 19? Lol. 🤔 If only there were channels like yours back then, my earlier setups wouldn’t have been so… “simple”. 😛 But in time, we learn. And your videos are full of such useful information. Stuff that literally seems obvious when I realize what it actually is... like, “why didn’t I ever notice that?” Even basic things, like saving the cork background shavings? Genius! And the siphon method for draining water out? Also genius.. saves me drilling a hole, finding the right tubing, sealing it, worrying that it’s going to eventually leak, etc. So… seriously, thank you! 😂
"Going to put on some heavy objects to keep it in place" Only Terrarium Designs could use terrariums as a tool in the process of BUILDING ANOTHER terrarium
I noticed that pepperomia addition almost immediately when you cut to the "4 months later". That in conjunction with the bromeliads, makes me think maybe a tiny bit more purple/red accents throughout the setup may be a nice touch. Maybe some tradescantia pallida in some of the low light background areas might be nice? Just throwing some thoughts out there. Thanks for the build!
verrus always top of mine list for jungle build , whats funny there are many variants of it , a mini ver , i just order verru fantasy , collecting tomorrow , lol
New here, love everything you've done that I've watched! 😆 Thinking it could look cool if you could get some of those spiderwood root systems completely covered in a moss almost like a vine or a bit of root that'd become overgrown with a moss. Idk 😂 Thank you for your content!

Okay man ✅
Thats a bunch of materials pretty cool
Thanks for helping :)
Thanks 😊
Please help me learn to make them that is something I would really enjoy doing and I'm an old lady that would be something I can do and hopefully make a little extra money doing it
I love that you did this entire build without the use of expanding foam. That cork background looks absolutely stunning, this is the technique I've been looking for!
yes, me too. I'm not a huge fan of using lots of expanding foam.
No it's still good 👍
same here. :D
Would love to see Grogu have a family. 🙂Cool build/video!
Me too! Thank you😃
Me to
Let Grogu breed!!!
Lol!
😂
using beautiful terrariums to weigh down the cork panels is such a flex. great work as always
A lot of time went into this one, hope you enjoy it!💚
Finaly you did it.This vivarium making video is my dream
Yaa ❤❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed it😃
Bro plz do a video about how to make a misting system
Love the vids any chance you could do a small turtle habitat??
That philodendron really does steal the show, doesn't it!
Really nice build
Yes breeding frogs and making a water area would be so cool to watch them grow.
This vivarium is beautiful. I love the spiderwood. However after the frog, the log is the star of the show. I’ve never seen a piece of driftwood that looks like Godzilla before. So cool!
I thought the same thing! Lol
It’s a really cool piece! & now you’ve said it, it really does look like Godzilla😅
Its an old comment i know, but I genuinely was looking for this comment 😂.
This is the Terrarium we have all been waiting for🎉
Loving the content! Just an idea that I haven't seen anyone try, what about a terrarium centered around chillies and other spicy plants. I don't know if it would work but it might be worth a try!
Carving down the cork tile to make it more uniform is genius!
Definitely give him a friend. Then, you'll have to make room for all the babies, so we get another video! 😊✌️
The late additions really pull it together. I also really like how excited you sound about the plants you've included
i have always wanted to make a frog terrarium, and this really boosted my confidence into start making one. Thanks boss!😎
Glad I could help!😃
Good luck!
I find it really funny that your "heavy objects" for securing the background with silicone were two beautiful terrariums lol
the shot near the end in the dark room with only the Terrarium lit up so naturally is stunning and gives me the feels
C'est vraiment superbe! Comme tu dis 'breath taking'! J'aime particulièrement ce que tu fais pour donner au background de liège un aspect naturel. J’apprécie aussi qu'on peut voir que tes arrangements fonctionnent vraiment avec une vue du résultat 4 mois plus tard. Continue.
Awesome stuff!! I really love your videos and all the time and effort you put into them. Keep up the good work!
What a gorgeous habitat!! Your little tree frog must be thrilled (or at least will be once he's used to it).

Thank you for watching:) poison dart frogs are amazing for sure!
I love it! I would love to see a terrarium, with Orchids included.
Absolutely breathtaking!❤
That's gorgeous!!! You did great !!!!!❤

Glad you enjoyed the video! I always think it adds to the video with an update on how it’s growing:) appreciate your support!
Looks amazing he’s gonna love it in there
I think it looks awesome, and I especially appreciate the links to UK sites for products used. The one thing I'd add is branches, both horizontal and vertical as it currently looks more suitable for Dart frogs than Tree frogs. It'll also provide extra places for moss and other plants to be added :)
This one is BREATHTAKING. Excellent work! And I appreciate you SO MUCH for including the plant list. I always want to know the plants haha
Fascinating. I'd love to see more of the little fellow make his way through the environment.
Dreaming of an eco system like this. So satisfying.
That cork backdrop would be great as a full wall as the 3d layering & sculpting looks great. Fantastic job!
absolutely beautiful build, you perfectly showcased an inexpensive build for hobbyists who work on tight budgets but have a lot of terrariums to build, top notch
The tree roots look awesome on the background! And I’d also enjoy seeing grogu having a friend!
YES ILL BE INTERESTED IN BABY FROGS SO CUTE!!!🐸
Been absolutely loving your videos lately. Inspired me to try and make my own little terrarium, but it’s so amazing to see how big your setups can get! So cool, thank you for sharing your knowledge and art!

Absolutely love this ecosystem. Very nice job.
Looks Gorgeous. If i wasn't a guitar player id definitely be a Terrarium builder in another life.
It looks amazing! What I miss in many terrariums like this is ferns and horsetails.
I find them being the archetype plants in jungle and woodlands together with moss. And they add to that prehistoric vibe that a junglesetting gives me. Maybe they are difficult to grow in terrariums I don't know, I'm just an observer, viewer...
Looking forward to the next video!
I've never tried horsetails in a terrarium, but I have a fern in my isopod terrarium and it's pretty easy. Not the easiest plant I've EVER dealt with, but not hard either.
I will never make or own one of these tanks. I just watch your videos. I love the use of plants, sculptures, and building materials to create these oasis points. I enjoy the build and design.

Stunning build!! ❤😊❤
Thank you!
@@TerrariumDesigns you are welcome 🤗
Absolutely Fabulous 😃
Thank You for sharing 👍
I just discovered your channel and it serves as a beautiful guide for me, you made my day better friend, thank you.
Love to hear this, glad you enjoyed the video:)
Love the roots, their form and colour make them pop between all the nice greenery.
wooooow!!! awesome terrarium and super cute frog! I really like the christmas moss.
Will you please do a Hawaiian Paradise Island themed terrarium?
I really want to see grogu have a family it would make a great video
Awesome Input for q beginner as iam in this Hobby .
Thanks for your time ans effort to build this new Home for your frog 🫶🐸
Terrarium yang sangat indah,terlihat alami ..
Thanks!
Dude you inspire me and you are the best❤
Facts!
Grogu is lucky to have you it's awesome thank u so much for giving this much time and patience for making this wonderful video we live 😊❤
I'm subbed 💖
Beautiful. Peperomia prostrata is my favorite and definitely recommended
As for plant suggestions, maybe something like a warm growing lepanthes would look great? There's tons of cool miniature orchids that would look great in this tank.
Cork panels like these are basically compressed cork bark, so you could 100% recycle those shavings as an aerating and composting substrate component
Didn’t think of that, great suggestion:)
I speak Spanish but I still love your videos, the terrariums you make are really beautiful 💚
Glad you enjoyed the video😃
You type in English really well, there were zero mistakes in this comment.
@@jeremyfrost2636there was one but even most English speakers don't do it, before the but you put a comma
Your art is AWESOME!
Thank you!
I’ve never worked with cork panels but they looked great after you got the drill on them.
I think some anthuriums would make an excellent addition as well!
I absolutely love how this turned out I’m gonna be doing a terrarium for 2 red eyed tree frogs shortly
definitively love this one, just thinking it would be better if there's some vines horizontally from upper part of the scape
Cool idea!😃
amazing work 👏. I think high humidity loving orchids would do great in your terrarium with a small pop of colour with their blooms.
My family loves your videos and we want to see how your frog is doing!
I love it ❤ Stunning...one thing I'd like to see though is some fungi
❤❤❤❤ what a beautiful set up❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 feeling inspired
Really good instructional video. One day, I'll attempt something like this.
I really like your ecosystems
Suggestion - Try making a large paludarium build with frogs and maybe crabs
Thanks! May have something like that in the works👀😃
Love your Videos wery nice Build the promelia are wery beautiful
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it😃
i would love to see a pennywort terrarium with other plants that grow with it as that’s what lives around me.
This truely is an amazing setup brother ❤
Never watched this guy but youtube thought I needed hin and it was right😊😊😊
The hardscape is already impressive, but the plant selection? Wow, it really looks like a scene in a Costa Rica cloudforest, with species that could be seen actually growing together in nature! Personally, I'd add some epiphytic Mesoamerican miniature ferns and orchids to complete the look. 🙌
i loooove the vine look from the spider wood !
Oh qué bien... Hermoso terrario y el huésped que lo habita. Y como todo lo que este amigo realiza es absolutamente admirable, y para variar hoy aprendí gracias a él, algo nuevo "muchas gracias por compartir sus conocimientos con nosotros" ¡Bye!
En verdad este amigo es un artista de éste fantástico mundo natural. Muchas gracias por enseñar a elaborar y aconsejar de materiales fáciles de comprar y uno mismo construir "gracias amigo"
I’m a newbie but I would definitively add some colourful fittonia
As a beginning enthusiast with both terrariums and vivariums, this is one of my favorite build videos so far! (And I've watched HOURS of them.)

New viewer 🙋🏽♀️ love how the mopani wood looks like a dinosaur to me 🦖 😂🫶🏽
Looks very good I love it.

Glad you found the video useful & thanks for the support😃
thank you for my new obsession 😆
Beautiful setup
Magnificent
Its absolutely amazing!
you should add some mini epithytic orchids!!
Love that idea!
I liked d idea of keeping d heavy objects, after glueing procedures..... Terrariums 😊
That large centerpiece wood reminds me of an Old English Lion with its mawl wide open.
"Going to put on some heavy objects to keep it in place"
Only Terrarium Designs could use terrariums as a tool in the process of BUILDING ANOTHER terrarium
Haha, had it do it!😅
Looks great! Maybe you could add some epiphytic orchids or ferns ( masdevillia, pleurothallis, ect...)
i like your set up a lot,very waell done
Personally, I think it’s good. If other people think it’s bad, don’t listen to them.❤
I noticed that pepperomia addition almost immediately when you cut to the "4 months later". That in conjunction with the bromeliads, makes me think maybe a tiny bit more purple/red accents throughout the setup may be a nice touch. Maybe some tradescantia pallida in some of the low light background areas might be nice? Just throwing some thoughts out there. Thanks for the build!
Amazing ❤❤❤
Thanks😃
Sometimes I have the feeling you are advertising these springtails 😂
Love your videos mate 😎
Would be really cool if you had a 1 or 2h video of your vivariums with your animals just doing their thing and with calming music.
I love what you have created. Very inspiring! What type of heat source did you use to maintain humidity levels?
verrus always top of mine list for jungle build , whats funny there are many variants of it , a mini ver , i just order verru fantasy , collecting tomorrow , lol
New here, love everything you've done that I've watched! 😆 Thinking it could look cool if you could get some of those spiderwood root systems completely covered in a moss almost like a vine or a bit of root that'd become overgrown with a moss. Idk 😂 Thank you for your content!
I think the reason the log looks prehistoric is because it’s shaped like a T-Rex! And that Philodendron is stunning!
Haha it really does!😅
I thought the same thing omg!!😂
very cool and well designed really the only thing I would do differentley is add more types of moss.
