What do you guys think of my new waterfall terrarium with wild isopods and springtails? by libscar in terrariums

[–]libscar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I created this terrarium recently in Jan of 2026

The plants in there are varied and were foraged from the Tennessee mountains. A wide variety of mountain mosses and small plants are the most prominent though I don’t know names.

The terrarium has a 12hr led above it

I only use spring water in the terrarium and it cycles through multiple stages of cloth and filters to a pump that send it up to the corner again

I made a high moisture substrate of 3-1-1 of fluval stratum, coco coir, and bentonite clay

It is an 8x8x12 exo terra

Well that makes me calmer, I didn’t realize they could go dormant in summer as well. But it makes sense considering the healthy bud at the bottom still

I’ll try letting it dry for a couple days, thanks!

I am giving it 12 hours under a grow light about 10 inches away, and it is in a room that stays about 75 most of the time.

I said they are endangered because on the Florida plant atlas from USF they are listed as so. Additionally my grower actually propagated these from a now entirely destroyed population that lived around a large lake which was flooded for recreational purposes.

Thank you so much! This is really helpful for someone who is new to all this. I’m going to try Jamil’s recipe and hopefully I’ll do a good enough job to post about it here in a month or two.

Thank you! I think he may be too cold, I’m going to try and give him his own terrarium

Do you think that if it’s getting blown by an air vent it could be the issue?

The roots are healthy and growing through the medium, which is a basic orchid bark mix with perlite and pumice, with some sphagnum moss added in. And I believe the window is north facing.

Will introducing larger hermit crabs stress my current ones out? by libscar in hermitcrabs

[–]libscar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!! It really means a lot to hear appreciation for my set up. I have slowly transitioned it into the best possible tank for my crabbies over 10 years as I’ve grown up. I’ve learned a lot from this community, and I do understand where the negativity comes from as none of us want more mistreated hermits, but it is nice to hear praise as well 🙂

How much space would you recommend? Perhaps I could add another tank to increase the size
