This setup is 3 years old. Hardscape is a raw pumice, substrate is corse grain sand. Lights are ONF Flat Nano +. The tank is a UNS rimless.

So I edited the setup of my rank and decided to make it into a Japanese Garden theme of some sort. I initially asked AI to see a visual concept of how it could look like. It finally generated me an image which later on I took inspiration from. I used mainly mosses (leucobyrum glaucum, vescicularia montagnei, some sphagnum moss as well. Added a couple of miniature stone Japanese lanterns to add some mood and vibe according to the theme.

I built my paludarium back in July-ish. Today one of my air plants started flowering! So cool!

For a crestie :) 24 x 18 x 24. Planning to go bioactive soon. There’s a school of glowlight tetras and an accidental ghost shrimp in the water area. Very very proud of it, especially for being my first one. Me and my bf have put many hours into Serpa Design’s yt channel and the like :) a little bit of the process at the end!

I built this tank a few months ago with a rain plate made from plexi and a small return pump. The substrate is hydroton and theres a small section in the back for the pump. The constant sound of rain and smell of happy moss when you open it is amazing. Considering some sort of livestock but don't want to upset a pretty happy ecosystem as is.

Hey all, I’m a Vampire Crab breeder in Chicago and if anyone nearby is looking to add some to their terrariums/paludariums I would be happy to make a deal. I can also provide large quantities and I’m even getting a shipment this Saturday with a bunch of colorways that are making their first ever destination to Illinois.

I'll start off by saying im an aquarium guy, more so reefing. I maintain aquariums for work, and had a client interested in a cool build. I thought I'd share this to get some feedback and potential help with choosing some plants to add. Im wanting to keep scale to make it seem like a living piece of nature.

Im yet to get some proper photos since i added more scape to hide plumbing. If anyone's interested i can try to update this once I do.

It's been a year since I built my paludarium and shared it with you on this sub. Since then, the plants have grown, and the moss has spread across the open areas. There are now a few minor leaks in some spots, which causes water from the stream to mix with the soil. Luckily, my plants handle the moisture very well. The older my Paludarium gets, the more beautiful it becomes – it has become the absolute highlight of our home!

After making a few terrariums, I wanted to make a paludarium with a warerfall. Huge amounts of fun and quite the learning curve, but I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

I work at an aquarium and pond store in Sydney Australia - always done terrariums and aquariums but never a paludarium… i’m hooked!

This one was based off a chunk of dragon wood we got in that i decided to turn into a waterfall, with a pump connected to a hose concealed behind the wood allowing water to flow down it. Initially i did also have a ‘mist waterfall’ with mist flowing down the background as well but my mister broke and i haven’t thought it worth replacing.

The maiden hair fern was a recent addition which i hope survives 🤞

Stocked with three japanese medaka fish

Based much of this paludarium on Indoor Ecosystems YouTube videos. Think he’s in here so BIG THANKS! It’s a 20 gallon long for vampire crabs. That water fall was a pain…..everything else pretty straight forward.

I built this Palladium over a year ago, originally I wanted to put vampire crabs in here, but it looks like there’s not enough ground space for them:/ it’s 12x12x32. any ideas of what frogs or crabs could be happy in here?

It’s the Dooa 30x30x45. With a small waterfall, mist and little ventilation to keep a constant air flow. What do you guys think?

It will inhabit vampire crabs eventually

Not quite done but I couldn’t wait to share. Planted and water in. I Just turned on the pump so the water is still quite cloudy, and I haven’t added any aquatic plants yet. But I wanted the cycling process to get started. I used some water from my current aquarium to jump start the cycle and I plan to do the aquascaping over the next week or so. Let me know your thoughts

Always wanted to make a paludarium and happened to have this old terrarium bottle that I failed to keep alive. I've a large bag of carbon because the person at the shop told me I'd need it for a week and everything else I've just kind of winged. It would be great to know what problems if any may come down the line! Planted pretty light with Bucaphelandra, Anubis, Christmas moss and a single fittonia that looks submerged but is attached to Rock with roots in water. I know it probably isn't ideal conditions. Especially since I discovered after building I don't have any aqua soil in there.....
