I mean really you have done a great job in your site it's the only site from about 10-11 sites thatbi was reading.... you explain so good everything! EVERYTHING. Thank you very very much!!!!!!
Hi, i made a new terrarium and this one is bigger, i added moss and plants from the same spot they prosper in humidity i added a peace of bark and three isopods (two of them from a smaller terrarium i had) my questions are, is this a good environment for the isopods and if so should i add more? Also should i add springtails? What zone is best to leave a springtail bait to catch them? And last should i add a worm to help with the soil? I'm just a little concerned if the worm will get stuck in the rocks bellow the soil. Sorry for so many questions but you're the right person to ask, thanks for your videos.
Isopods should do well in a terrarium. If you already have at least a few isopods in there, they should probably reproduce on their own and there's no rush to add a bunch in all at once. Springtails can help control fungus growth and may complement the isopods since I don't think isopods consume fungus. You can try catching springtails anywhere there's a decent amount of moisture, like in a shady area or under a rock, but results may vary. The safe option is to just buy a springtail culture if your budget allows. I think most soils out in nature should have at least some springtails in there. Worms could be added, but I think isopods already burrow through the soil and create some aeration, so it may not be necessary. I had a worm in one of my terrariums that I saw under the soil where the rocks were, but it later disappeared. I think this means they're able to find their way back to the soil and won't get stuck at the bottom. Happy to answer questions, thanks for watching!
@@hermitgarden9150 Thank you so much for your answer, really appreciate it, i couldn't find the isopods inside the terrarium, i looked many times and was wondering where they'd go, the bigger one i see rarely but the two smaller ones i haven't seen again yet, i didn't knew they would dig through the soil that is really cool, now i just need to find the springtails, thank you for your help, God bless you.
you sound like you know what you're talking about. could you make a comprehensive video about the differences in terminology (what's a terrarium, vivarium, paludarium, faunarium, etc)?
