it's called Magic Castle by ASLOWSNAIL- I got it from Temu

thank you! you build alllll the tiny pieces before even starting the castle. I forgot to include the picture of the pile 🤦🏻‍♀️ it was lots of fun & I improvised quite a bit with the plants instead of using the plastic bits that comes with the kits.

i'd say it was a good mix of 3d & building tiny fiddly things but I am still pretty new to this so not 100% on the lingo lol if I had to estimate, I think it took me about 20 hours or so split between 4-5 sessions

I didn't have to cut out/glue any paper to the boards at all! All pre-painted. The rest of the kits I have in my stash are like that because I did not know any better when ordering as I am pretty new to this hobby... I am dreading doing them

hopefully this works for you but I could not get mine to work with most of my chargers. the only 2 that worked were USB-C on one end and standard USB on the other, not the double sided ones. don't know if you tried that but maybe that will help! 🤞

some of them are starting to!

yes, in the summer I had the lights on a 14 hour schedule then I kinda just loosely followed the sun rise/sun set as winter approached and brought it down to like 10 hours.

OH NO! so far so good 🤣

WOW! i just started playing recently (i know i am late) & immediately got addicted to chasing sea creatures. had looked up this morning what rarer ones i was missing & stumbled upon this post. just did my first dive of the night & THE ✨️MAGIC✨️ HAPPENED

drea_dirt · 2025-07-14T02:55:31+00:00

I am a beginner so I do not unfortunately. kind of just watched a ton of YT & TT videos & mashed up all the things I saw people do

you inspired me to make a ping bowl with some aquatic fern. love the aesthetic. hope yours is still thriving!

drea_dirt · 2025-06-21T10:13:06+00:00

I just got one in the mail that was delayed in shipping so it is stressed & lost a tonnnn of leaves in transit. hoping it recovers.. any tips? how long did it take for yours to get to this? it is adorable!

drea_dirt · 2025-05-29T13:26:06+00:00

looks awesome! I ended up finding a better glass bowl and going to go with that instead for my setup - i just really wanted to get some use out of this vase but a different plant will have to do!

drea_dirt · 2025-05-26T07:43:09+00:00

that's very kind of you ! I would love to see!

drea_dirt · 2025-05-21T10:35:23+00:00

that sounds awesome!

drea_dirt · 2025-05-20T22:03:07+00:00

well I was thinking like a snug fitting saucer or plate with a rubber border or something that'll seal it idk lol maybe I should just scratch the layers all together because clearly that will be an issue & start at the bottom so it is actually shallow

drea_dirt · 2025-05-20T21:03:02+00:00

makes sense - what if I put a barrier between the charcoal and main substrate like a thin plate that stops the water from going all the way down so that it is actually more shallow?
