How to build a Paludarium (Vivarium)
Advertisement
This video is the first of a series where I plan on building up the levels of an ecosystem in this enclosure. If you plan building this yourself, I will gladly answer any questions you have in the comments below.
This project was built over the course of about a month and there were weeks of preparation beforehand. It's still not finished, and I plan on adding more plants/hardscape overtime. If I had only one piece of advice I could give it would be to TAKE YOUR TIME. It took me hours and hours to get the hardscape and plants right. It will be worth it in the long run.
