Custom Built Paludarium - Water Effect Closeup

This is a video of a custom paludarium I made last year. It's a 29 gallon "Marty Made" brand terrarium with sliding glass doors. I built the background out of expanding foam (Great Stuff Sealant) and coco fiber. The tank was drilled with and two 1/2" bulkheads were installed. Plumbing was ran behind the foam that leads to the waterfall area.

You can see pics and detailed build instructions by viewing by build thread on VivariumForums.com

You can also see a similar build thread at plantedtank.net,

Despite these two threads specifying I was building this enclosure for a Chaco Swamp Snake, that did not quite work out and it has now become home to a very happy crested gecko :).

What kind of plant/moss is that in that waterpool at the top of the feature, where the water drips from? Has it survived well?
