Moss terrarium with moss tree roots , newts ,frogs , toads play ,climb ,eat worms
The kit (waters edge vivarium) is no longer made , some are sold on Ebay from time to time . The kit worked poorly because they didnt think to add a PCP pipe for fast water flow (from wall to back pump) .In otherwords they expected water to seep inbetween the rock gravel fast enough for it to be pumped (it did but too slowly). Look in my video description or past comments . Ask around at pet stores if any SUBSTITUTES are now sold . I explain how to make your own for 30$. .The pump is $20 and then buy plexi , collect milk plastic containers cut and glue with 100% silicon .

  • will your water clear up before it was sparkling

    in my tank i have just made a brigde out of tree branches will moss ontop of them

    your firbellied toad moves around load mine only moves around a night

    is that because the light is too bright

    thanks

  • @rugbyhockeyrishi The water will clear up . Are your firebelly toads brand new to the tank .Mine have been doesticated for years so they move around in the day .Maybe its just a matter of time?

  • when you said toad it sounded like you said TURD LOL!!!!!!!! :)

  • totally subscribing!!!!!!!!

  • congrats on 10,000 views!! amazing setup!!!

  • got some questions, how did you do that fountain and partion off the water side, or at least make it on one side and underneath?

  • Inspiring!

  • This is EXACTLY what I want to build.

    I've never built one before, but your setup, and your choice of amphibians is exactly what I'm looking to do.

    I just have one question;

    I was told newts and some frogs can secret slime, that might kill off any fish.

    Have you had this problem, does it exist?
