A terrarium with carnivorous plants is beautiful. I have lots of them at home. I also grew the graminifolia when it emerged, and it makes beautiful flowers. The only thing that doesn't suit us is Sarracenia, which is a cold outdoor plant.
I have carnivorous plants and you actually don’t need to hand feed them with bugs as some people think. They either eat whatever insect climbs in their mouth or they just don’t eat insects and bugs. It’s not exactly necessary to eat bugs in their diet, although it does give them some nutrients. After all, they are still plants that do photosynthesis to get energy.
I wonder how you feed those plants? Once I got a small plant like that and in the spring and summer was okay cause weekly I caught a fly and put it in the plant cone that had water in it so the bug would die in it and be absorbed by the plant. I know you can't let the cones dry out but the bugs are the problem cause they only take flying bugs. Mosquitos or even fruitflies were here and there but in the winter it was no bugs so it suffered and died. So over time, I learned about them even before I bought 1 but no books or any other literature talks about the year-round bug supply and where to get it. I haven't tried the wingless fruitflies but that is just 1. Could be ants but no Junebug. So there are a few challenges to caring for them properly.
Great scape! But I noticed you putting in pumice stone at the very bottom, doesn't that isolate the textile fabric from transporting water up to the scape from the water reservoir below? I'd be a bit worried of the water not getting into the scape and starting to rot at some point. Or does the pumice stone suck water up as well?
Hi, I plan to replicate your setup. Does springtails and isopods work here? I also could not find black peat in my country. What do I replace it with?😢
A matter of taste though. You can indeed scratch the plastic though, easily, if you're not very very careful. The price? Well, it is steep, but if you would want to do the whole thing from quality parts, you would be around the same. Or so I heard, never did that myself.
Hi Balasz, it been awhile since you guys do a Green Aqua show room tank update, can you guys do a 4k update on all of your tanks please 😢. Im sure every one been waiting for it.
So, did you paint the plastic? You built in a white one and showed off a dark one. Also, care and maintenance question, what do you feed them? Gnats/flys/mosquitos?
Bonjour , Est ce volontaire de ne pas avoir mis de charbon actif ? Je vois beaucoup de tutos ou ils en mettent dans les terrariums ..... Venant de l'aquariophilie et sachant qu'au bout d'un certain temps ... il relargue ce qu'il avait pompé , donc à utiliser peu de temps , je pense qu'il vaut effectivement ne pas l'utiliser dans ce genre de projet ... Qu'en pensez vous ? Merci pour le tuto .
You are right. The North American pitcher by default comes from the climate zone 7 to 10 ( some species go till 11 on the hardiness scale but they are quite rare). On the contrary, some specimens of the species coming from Florida, also some cultivars, like the one we used here, actually enjoy the environment the Biorb creates. So yes, most of them need outdoor cold in winter. Still, you can grow Sarraceniaceae in these conditions if you have the right airflow, and it is not a necessity for some hybrids to have a fluctuation in temperature throughout the year. (In my professional opinion.)
@@GreenAquaShop i heard it wasn’t even reliable in long term use , I would love Oase to put more money in the development than in the communication and sponsoring , I think some products definitely needs some upgrade at this price point :) just my 2 cents, peace
Yeah, well, all new products must have their own early issues, but we found that this is pretty reliable - many of these have been working fine in our Gallery, and at clients, but we had a couple of problems, all solved within the warranty program.
Love the setup!!!! Beautiful! Green Aqua always does it top notch. Beautiful work! Thank You Green Aqua!
Just BEAUTIFUL!!
Art in its pure form!🎉

And with this one you got a subscriber
I watched your videos for month now
The best content for relaxation. Love it!
Huba is the best, isn't he? Thanks for watching us, neighbor. LoveU.
Опасный, хищный 👹, но при этом красивый и притягательный 🤩класс 👍
Thanks!
Nice design, well done. And where is the Venus flytrap?😉
You don't grow vft indoors lmao they're outside plants
Amazing commentary, Balasz.
Thank you kindly! 🥰
Absolutely beautiful
Cheers!
Love it. ❤

Mese szép! régóta szemezgetnek egy ilyen biorb 60 al viszont félek tőle hogy a pára a falon takarni fog mindent
Elég jól működik ez a biorb, ha nincs nagyon hideg kint, akkor szobahőmérsékleten tökéletesen páramentesen tud működni.
How do you feed the carnivorous plants

Exactly!
that was awesome😍
Glad you liked it.
That is beautiful 🙂
Thanks!

Stunning scape as always, unfortunately the Oase biOrb looks a bit too plasticky for my taste.
Not to mention the ridiculous pricetag right.

Whoa I’m fairly early for this
You are. :)

Noted! Maybe we'll do one at the end of the year, as always.

It's just the camera... The last shots are in the dark. All cats are dark at night, LOL. These plants will survive without feeding them insects.

Merci pour le tuto .
Is there a special reason for not using the included cocos-substrate? Is it not also a good substrate for these plants?
It is a good substrate, but with these plants we preferred this setup.
Do any of those plants need an "over winter dormant" period to keep healthy?
The Sarracenia will need dormancy, the others should be okay

Sziasztok, rendelhető tőletek?
Szia, igen. Leírásban megtalálod a linket hozzá ;)
Who swapped Monday for Thursday!?😅
😂😂
This is just a little surprise for you, the next video is coming on Thursday 💚
@@GreenAquaShop I thought tomorrow was Friday and the beginning of the weekend 😭 But if you add another video, let it be Monday. I can handle it 😂
LOL, wake up, Adam!
Great build, but…The oase biorb might be the most hideous plant container I’ve seen in a while, not to mention the ridiculous price tag , no thanks 👎🏻
The fully automated system is a very good thing in this case, but yeah, nobody is forcing anybody to buy this. :)
