    I still can’t believe you successfully managed to create an independent small chunk of Mother Nature in a glass box in your house! It’s truly incredible what you managed to do. It’s literally the wilderness in a tank and the animals living in there have no idea they’re even in captivity. That is there home and I truly believe they think they’re in the wild and living life naturally without you interfering hardly ever.

    That spider a 7:30 might be a diving bell spider which traps an air bubble using hairs on its abdomen so it can live underwater and build webs underwater as well. Although it is hard to identify and a few other spiders are known for entering water (or it could just be a spider that fell in)

    Man that was a hell of a Pond update. It looks so healthy i can't believe you aren't endlessly throwing food in there to keep those numbers up and it's happening all on it's own.

    If you’re feeling bold you could add a large predator to the pond like a crayfish, but it might compete with your salamanders so I would understand if you chose not to do that and just keep it safe. The salamander larvae already make good predators for the waterways, but when they get older you might need something to maintain that balance.

      @@nordicants6232 It’s up to you man. Not even sure how they would fair in captivity, but your vivarium looks so natural I think they would make it. Overall very healthy echo system and by adding those aquatic plants you gave the shrimp places to hide so they’re definitely gonna thrive and not be eaten by salamanders. Shrimp are AMAZING in aquatic setups and I think they’ll do most of the work with keeping the aquatic part of the vivarium clean as well as the snails and other creatures ect. So you definitely don’t have to add any mollusks if you don’t want.
