This is really masterful work. Tank mechanics are one thing, selecting flora and fauna that can thrive together in one ecosystem is entirely another. Very, very well done Sir.
Same! And having the space too would be wonderful. I'm looking forward to making a whole room for aquariums and putting a study in it🙏🏻. Where would you put your paludarium?
Would love to see your 9 hours of plant placement in time-lapse! Fabulous! Once you said it took you 9 hours placing plants, I'm not so embarrassed that a 7 gallon tank took me 5 hours to plant nicely. Well done!
This is honestly probably the best vertical paludarium build I've seen in UA-cam in a hot minute my guy. And you make it look so much more simple than i thought it would need to be!
Dr. Plant! You truly are a terrarium genius! Thanks for being an inspiration for us all. Could you ever make a video on paludarium maintenance? I'm sure many of us wonder how to keep everything nice, clean, and healthy. Keep up the good work 😸
Only _one of the best⁉️_ Who's better besides Serpadesign? I would love to find some more channels doing super high end vivariums like this‼️ And I only put Tanner over the Dr. because 1. He gives *_way more detail_* on how to actually build his setups step by step and 2. While the Dr. _might_ have Serpa beat in complexity/beauty on some projects, more of Serpa's builds maximize efficiency and reduce the arbitrary "bells & whistles" (which leads to less maintenance and upkeep expenses) And he goes out of his way to make them as cost efficient as possible so regular people like me could realistically make something like this ourselves! While Dr. Plants is also very skilled, he streamlines his personal labor/diy alterations by shelling out top $ on all his materials! 🤑 I know I can't afford to shell out _thousands_ on enclosures just to make it an easier build/slightly cleaner end result 😂 Especially when I can make one that looks/functions 90% as good for a fraction of the $ plus few extra days/weeks of my own labor 🙃
This is my favourite series,this and serpa design got me into planted terrarium although right now I only have the budget for jar terrariums and my first one finally settled in and it looks sooo nice too bad I need artificial lighting for any plant to survive in my room.
I have to say, I loved your descriptions. 'This piece of wood has more character than my High School History Teacher' - particularly made me laugh. Made the video even better. My friend sent this over as they would like help trying to build one - this video will definitely help so thank you
I'm watching this a year after this was uploaded, and I am amazed at how cool it turned out! I also have a question too! How often do you feed the animals in the tank and how do you feed them?
Literally reminds me of "Green Hell" the game... Simply stunning. The way the plants have grown on the wooden branches too! Amazing. Thanks for sharing buddie.
Thank you so much! I just went out to buy expanding foam and silicone to try make a build just like your one! now all i need is some wood and I cant wait to start
one of the most complete video. I've been thinking about getting a palludarium for a long time. This video will become one of the ones I watch the most.
I know, I'm late, but personally I'd love a video detailing the plants. Of course, I already know the names🤫🤣 lol, Would love to hear you talk more about the individual species tho…In my never-ending search of bioactive/aquascape videos, yours have really been inspiring to me, since randomly finding them😊I've been doing this since I was 18 (like 2005) but I'm kinda obsessing over your design ethic & style right now. It def inspires me after watching any of your vids, even if it's just getting outside to my garden. So thank you 😇Erik in San Diego
This video is my inspiration for starting a beautiful paladarium like this thank you so much for showing the essential steps to make such a beautiful scape
I'm genuinely so thankful for this video series. This is genuinely, EXACTLY what I've been dreaming of being a huge lover of crabs, and maybe instead of geckos, maybe I can keep some kind of frog?
This is honestly incredible! I'm trying to get some info and ideas for a 4×2×4 build for my ridleyi rat snake, and 100% going to use this as a base for my plans. Thanks for the amazing vid, I'm shocked you're a small channel, this is super high quality!
Your channel has been giving me great ideas for my first large build! I’ve done a few in the 10 gallon range and larger, but this next one will be 36Wx24Tx14D for my mourning geckos. I’m not sure which other creatures I will add
This is epic! I wasn't really interested very much at the beginning, but for some reason kept watching. But by the end, it was becoming a strong and stronger desire to make one of these. How much was the tank itself. That is where I will have to start, as I'm not exactly money rich right now. But would do this piece by piece if I do it. Wondering if there are any deals on these tanks from anywhere. I'd guess you researched this quite a bit before getting started. Thanks for introducing such a great project to the masses.
@@TheDrPlants Thank you very much for the reply. Your build set me off on a hunt across YT to find more of them, but nothing has peaked my interest the way yours did. Several builders have built physically cool structures, but they never put such interesting fauna and flora in them. It makes all the difference in the world.
Very nice build, one of the nicest I have seen. Thank you for taking the time to video log this build, not easy. I have built different types of vivarium's over several decades, and fish scapes, fresh and salt. In fact, I owned an aquarium store out in Los Angeles in 1995. So tons of experience with submersible pumps, and imo, you shot yourself in the foot by not making that pump removable. Either for cleaning, service...they do crap out from time to time, rare, but it has happened to me.
Oh my GOODNESS! This is phenomenal! I'm super interested in your selection of plants as well but not only that, approximately how much did this cost altogether? (minus the animals you've added to the tank at this point) I'd also love to say THANKYOU for not just showing off the final product but actually taking the time to make a tutorial video I VERY much appreciate it. I would LOVE to give it a go
I would love a full video explaining all the different plants because I plan to build my own Paludarium and would like to use a similar list of plants to you.
Hey @Dr. Plants, I really love your videos about the paludarium! I wish I could afford to make a paludarium like this one day. I have a few questions though: 1) Do the plants need any heat / UV light to grow? 2) How often do you feed the animals inside the paludarium? 3) How do you make sure the animals get enough nutritions to live? You really inspired me and thanks a lot I’d you would ever answer these questions.
I second that about the plants @Dr. Plants, Im going to try and keep some peppers in a terrarium and need some form of heat and UV light and i have no clue where to start.
I started watching these five months later, and it turned out amazing! I am wondering if you plan to add a bit more ABG mix soil in the future as the nutrients break down? Do you leave the plant clippings in?
Really an amazing work. Watching this Video was super inspiring. I started working on my own Paludarium. The whole process ist totally satisfying and I really love doing it. Thanks for that Inspiration.... :) Great Job. Greetings from Germany
Ich will damit anfangen :0 ich habe bald mehr Geld als ich je hatte und ich finde das ist ein mega Hobby, bin aber absolut neu, also wenn du Tips hast :)
Beautifully Done!! You have an artistic taste choosing the right plants and color combination. Just wondering if the water pump has served its purpose... Would you change anything or do anything differently if you would do it again?? Thank you for this beautiful video. Great Job!
Thank you so much! The only thing I would’ve done differently is use an external canister filter; I’m not able to maintenance the pump with the way I set up the tank. All in all, I’m very happy with the setup and everything’s going smoothly.
Not sure if anyone already asked, but would there be any way you could post a link to where you got your plants? Or at least somewhere you'd recommend. It'd be greatly appreciated.
Love the videos. I was laughing when the saw hit the point you couldn't saw and the clips cut. Working with that foam for diy projects is so messy. I made stepping stones that I corporated the tiny crumbs for a strong , lightweight concrete mix.
Hey I really like the build and am planning on doing a similar one but had a question. How do you service the pump in this situation? It looks like not only is the pump under the dirt the pump coord is behind the silicone background? Does this mean if it breaks you will have to get a whole new pump and put it in the front? Also just curious, any reason you chose to use the terrarium version of this enclosure instead of the paludarium version allowing for deeper water/digging area?
bro if I ever hit the lottery I'm gonna higher you to build me one of these!!! jokes aside - this is absolute amazing and having it next to your bed at night must be so relaxing and calming, who needs tv if you got one of these! amazing video! so freaking cool. room tour :D ?
Phenomenal video!!! I have a few question. How do you heat the tank? Does the LED lights create enough heat? Also how well does the spray foam hold up to mold without drylok?
Nice. Next time, try cutting your foam with a hot knife. Much quicker and neater. Just allow plenty of ventilation. The smoke can be nasty. Thanks for the great vid. It will come in handy for my turtle enclosure expansion.
He literally has. Looking at his current uploads he is uploading every 3 months. Also for him to record the progress of his built in a video he needs to wait for some time
Hi! I keep watching this video over and over for inspiration. Amazing work on this beautiful build. I was wondering where you acquired all the plants? Did you buy them online or are you lucky to have an abundant nursery around you? Please make more videos! I’d love more detail about the plants and the paludarium mechanism!
@@kitkatstinker yeah but you can check in as much as you want or if you think some things wring but its not something hat always needs to be on your mind
You have inspired me to get into vivarium and paludariums. I am doing tons of research before I step into this hobby. Thank you so much for the wonderful videos!
This is such a well done paludarium! Ive been doing weeks of research on aquariums but after realizing I have a bird that will probably try to get into a tank, ive decided to go with this option. How much would you say this cost? excluding the tank and plants? Edit: Would you also consider putting a carnivorous plant such as a Venus flytrap or lowland nepenthes in there?
Without the plants, animals, and tank, this tank was cheap. I’d say it would cost $800 for the materials on the high end. You could do it for FAR cheaper. I do not think Venus flytraps would do well in this environment. On the other hand, some tropical nepenthes species do great on vivariums!
I’m Planning to start a small crab tank (10 gallon, at least 1 or 2 crabs) once my dad rehomes his fish to a bigger tank and I came across your vampire crab videos while trying to find care for fiddler crabs. You’ve inspired me to build a tank like this in the future. I hope one day I’ll have the time money and patience to make one myself. Thank you for the inspiration
I love this. Would love to see something like this done only hermit crabs in a part and fish. Maybe it's not possible, but if someone can do it it would be you!
This is so cool and definitely going to be the core of how I build my Tree frogs newest enclosure. They have bioactive substrate now, however I’d love a habitat that has ALL real plants rather than just a few, as well as a filtered water feature.
The tutorial is nice. The music in the background is calming. Your voice sounds calm and professional. I want to make something like this in the future!
Amazing work. I've seen the after 6 months video and its pure bliss. Will stick around for sure, research more and when I start mine will come back with a lot of questions. Thanks for sharing!
This is really masterful work. Tank mechanics are one thing, selecting flora and fauna that can thrive together in one ecosystem is entirely another.
Very, very well done Sir.

Where can I find the foam background and that's made in what kind of matier? Polystyrene polyurethanes etc...?
Seriously amazing! I dream of the day I could have the money and creativity to build something like this. Thank you for sharing!
its not that expensive
I'm sure if you work on a tight budget and try to make as cheap as possible you can do it.
Depending on where you live you can collect from your local area. Start small then get bigger set ups.
You can do it

I love this. Would love to see something like this done only hermit crabs in a part and fish. Maybe it's not possible, but if someone can do it it would be you!
Fucklove
Omg! Bro I can't discribe how satisfing it was to watch!
Amazing video! Btw I love your content
I have a paladarium as well, I watched your 100 gallon video and got inspired and combined with this on as well! 🙏!!!
Dude… you have serious talent! Keep up this good work
Letting you know, everyone needs the plant video!!!
This is so cool and definitely going to be the core of how I build my Tree frogs newest enclosure. They have bioactive substrate now, however I’d love a habitat that has ALL real plants rather than just a few, as well as a filtered water feature.
Absolutely beautiful! That wood is stunning! Looking forward to checking out all your updates
Something about your voice and the background music is so relaxing. Sweet video, thank you! 🍺 👍
The tutorial is nice. The music in the background is calming. Your voice sounds calm and professional. I want to make something like this in the future!
I just stumble upon one of your videos as and after watching two or three I had to subscribe. Your creativity is amazing!
I want to do something like this someday, I love animals. You do a great job creating these environments for them.
I've been wanting to build one for years... baby steps... workin on a terrium first👍🙂, thank for all your knowledge. I'm a fan for sure👍
Don't know how I've not come across this channel in the past... hurt my finger smashing the subscribe button
You are Magic, so talented. Amazing work ! LOVE IT
Amazing work. I've seen the after 6 months video and its pure bliss.
Will stick around for sure, research more and when I start mine will come back with a lot of questions.
Thanks for sharing!
Great video man. A tip for cutting the foam boards. Get a cheap turkey knife. They buzz right through with little mess.
Thanks so much for the Inspiration I made my own and it looks insane so thanks
I’d love to see it! Send me a picture on instagram @thedrplants
