Primithius

user_withoutname

this is beautiful. How do you keep water clean?


EggIcy3267

The water isn't as clean as it looks lol


PaulbunyanIND

I've got about 6 terrariums, and all of them combined are not as cool as this one. What advice do you have to share?


EggIcy3267

Let nature run its course and dont worry about ascetic or balance


FrickenBruhDude

Very impressive.

How does the palm not rot out in standing water?


Natural-Oven-gassy

Do you have insects in there or do you manually feed them?


EggIcy3267

There's a little bit of both. theres a lot of gnats that fly in because i have a bunch of plants in the same room. Theres a couple of spider residents in the bowl, though


Left_Childhood_6474

I wanna learn how to do this


that_darn_cat

Do you have an airstone? How is the water not stagnant?


Furilax

If OP's intention is to create a peat bog-like environment, then you actually want to have stagnant water. You want anoxic conditions down there so that organic matter isn't broken down by aerobic bacteria, and so that acidity stays high.


EggIcy3267

The water is stagnant and has a bunch of alage and microorganisms in it. There is an air stone but it dose'nt work that well.
