    I don't know about you, but I'm really pleased with how this turned out. I think it's a neat little setup that showcases these tiny crabs well. What do you think? Let me know!

      Hey Tanner first of all I absolutely love this new build it’s actually pretty relaxing to look at👌 quick question tho, what’s the difference between a riparium and an aquascape?
      Anyways I love all your videos, especially the pond builds and the diy aquascapes, keep up your awesome work and attitude 😌👍

      Do they breed in captivity? Most crabs kept as pets are wild caught. Maybe these are easier to breed because they are fresh water?

    I obviously jump around time a bit watching your videos of your builds.
    As a teenager, my mother was into terrariums and indoor waterfall gardens. I can only imagine at this time, what she would have thought or built, watching your amazing builds.
    I'm crafty enough with other things as a painter/artist and other things so I don't know how I'd fit my love for terrariums, etc. into my time. In the mean time, I'll keep following you to see what you are doing next, fascinated as always with your talents and ideas. While I just lay down some paint to capture the 2D of out lives and enjoy my learned talents just as you have. 🙂❤️
