Adding NEW Animals || Paludarium UPDATE
Переглядів 524,875
День томуThis video takes place 2 months after initial setup. I didn't mention the names of any new plants so here are the important ones off the top of my head:
Begonia Maculata
Alocasia Bambino
Neoregelia "Fireball"
Neoregelia "Tom Tom"
Neoregelia "Gene McKenzie"
Neoregelia "Superball"
Something else I didn't mention was that after returning home from the aquarium store, I realized that all the shrimp I had purchased were female. From there I proceeded to drive all the way back just to buy 2 males. So far they all seem to be doing great, and I haven't had any acclimation issues. I supplement them food once a week and I use "Shrimp King Complete".

I absolutely love this. I took in a bearded dragon a few years ago as a rescue, he came to me in the most generic and cramped tank you could imagine. I built him a bioactive vivarium as I thought it would be the best habitat for him and I found myself falling in love with building these small, contained ecosystems that none the less contained so much life.

There are two main types of small white worms that could populate a freshwater aquarium. One type is Nematodes, which are hair-like roundworms known as Detritus worms. The other type is flatworms and includes species such as Planaria and Rhabdocoela. 3:07

@zaddyandtheeels 2 роки тому
Depending on the temp in your tank and if you want to bother with wintering plants and what other critters you will be adding, carnivorous plants could be a great option for the empty pots. Venus fly traps are a safe and easy bet, though pitcher plants and sundews might cause probs for smaller animals. Idk, but this looks awesome!! Good work, bro!
@TheDrPlants 2 роки тому
I definitely want to make a tank with pitchers! I’m almost finished editing the next update and the animals in it, would definitely be eaten by pitcher plants LOL. I may plant pingluicula though if I can find it.

Just discovered you, nice build! i would recomend a Nepenthes in one of these pods they would love it! also one question i have bc i saw how you builded the tank and im planing my open Paludarium rn how do you keep the water values and temperature good for the shrimp? i didnt see any heater and i would expect the soil to mess with the water? keep up youre work!
@TheDrPlants 2 роки тому
You are definitely right about the soil messing with the water. But to my observations so far, it has had no negative effects. The shrimp are thriving as there are tons of baby shrimp scattered around the tank. I don’t use a heater because my house is always between 65°-70°. I also only do water changes once a month.
@TheBerlinPunk 2 роки тому
alright thanks! then i maybe will try to keep shrimps too when my tank is ready but its a lot smaller then youres ^^ only have experience with shrimps in my heated and filtered tank so im excited to see how youre shrimps do!

How did you regulate your humidity? I built a similar tank with yours as inspiration, and my humidity won’t drop out of the 90s. And I only have half my tank covered. Looks like you have more covered. A lot of my plants can’t take the moisture in the soil/air.

Just stumbled onto your channel. This is awesome!. I can see where this would addictive...in a good way :) Have you thought about adding a carnivorous plant somewhere in the tank?. Venus Fly Trap or Pitcher plants, maybe Honeydew. They usually thrive in humid conditions. But, they may also eat the tiny lizards if one ventured too close. Just a thought.

Thank you!! I do not think I’d add carnivorous plants to this setup because I fear it could eat both the baby geckos and the baby crabs. I definitely want to do a carnivorous plant build in the future!
