Hey man huge fan. Tip from aquarium hobbyist - Osmocote Plus is a pretty complete time release garden fert. People pack em in empty pills capsules, but I'm a build like this you can just bury some under the substrate..... And nevermind your next video was literally on it and much better explained. If you got into high tech planted tank you would be an absolute beast of a scaper and plant grower.
That is really awesome! But I wonder, why the need for the epiweb panels? I see you used two different substrate mixes also (perhaps the reason for the epiweb?). Can you please explain why you chose each? Thanks for your continued inspiring videos!!
Thank you. The panels were to contain the substrate in place behind the wood, so it wouldn't flow under the sides. I can't recall exactly why that was an issue since this was built a long time ago. The gravel was to take up space so I could use less Fluval Stratum, which is expensive and also didn't need to be that deep.
@@AnotherWorldTerraria Thanks! I wouldn't want springtails and isopods to escape though... anyways, I look forward to more of your builds. Design-wise, I think they're the best on TH-cam.
I only use springtails and isopods in closed terrariums. My comment was more general, not geared toward this wabi kusa in particular. For a wabi kusa, air movement / ventilation would be the primary way to reduce mold. You can also wipe the mold off and over time it will reduce as the decay on the outer surface of the wood slows down and things get in balance. Thanks for the kind words and for watching my videos!
I don't have this display anymore, but I used to change the water when it looked dirty or had too much algae. I didn't mist it because it was kept in a humid glass container. Thanks for watching
What happened to your videos man?!?! These are so amazing to watch... You have a real talent. Definitely should make some new videos and build up a subscriber base...
Thanks for the question. The benefits of epoxy in this case are 1. It "cures" within 1 minute, and fully cures in about an hour, and 2. It is more rigid. I use epoxy when I need a bond that is not going flex very much, and/or when I need it to attach quickly.
Thank you. I use LED lights. Check out my video about "what lights I use." Some algae, but it's not too bad because the floating plants cut the light down and there are lots of plants in relation to the water volume, so they use a lot of the nutrients
Hi there. Loved this especially because I am thinking of a new hobby and this really appeals to me. However ... the video seemed like it was on fast forward and I could not see what products/substrates etc you used. How can I find out? Thank you
Hello Wendy, thanks for the comment and for watching my video. Some of the things have text at the bottom of the screen while the video is playing (a little black bar slides up with notes) but there isn't a ton of detail on those. If you want to know specific products you can describe them to me or ask about a time code etc. But in general the exact brand or product doesn't matter (for example, any epoxy will work, any spray foam will work, any gravel will work) etc. Let me know and I'll see what I can detail for you
@@AnotherWorldTerraria Hi there. Thank you for coming back to me on that. When the time comes ... I will muddle through and make a note of time frames etc and ask you then. At the moment .. house bound .... but shall start seeking that which I can via online shopping. Many thanks and take good care of yourself and yours.
That is one option that could work in some cases, but I prefer PU foam most of the time because it creates more structure and support. In this build it allowed me to set and lock in the wood exactly at the angle desired. It's an irregular piece of wood and there is no way it could be attached directly to a flat surface with silicone. If you had a piece of wood with a flat bottom and there was enough surface area, the idea you mentioned might work. Thanks for the comment and for watching!

Do you do any water changes with this? As there's obviously no filter etc. Would you consider the space to be enough for a very small fish? Perhaps shrimp?
In my opinion it's too small for animals but I suppose an extremely small shrimp might work. You would probably need to do regular water changes. I don't change the water that often.

I hope you enjoy and learn from this video. Let me know if you have any questions or comments! 😎
Excuse me for being a savage, but finally someone with taste as I gorge myself in Wabi Kusa videos for inspiration xD
It is really pretty, im surprised how much patience you have to get things done right.
Thanks
Hello! This is truly an exceptionally beautiful Wabikusa.
That is a beautiful work of art! Great job! This inspired me to take on something like this for myself.
Return to us, o great Worldbuilder!
So gorgeous!!!!!

Un gran bel lavoro..volevo farti una domanda...ma l'acqua non diventa verde stando ferma? O la cambi ogni tanto?
Super pretty, how often do you change the water?
I just replace water as it evaporates
It’s a lovely build! How do you make sure these things don’t start to mold though?
Mold is unavoidable. It's just a matter of trying to reduce it by using air flow, springtails, isopods, and so on

Sweet.. !! 👍
Thank you!
I’m in Kauai I found some filmy ferns and liverworts I’m shipping back, filmy ferns look 👀 like very hardy buggers.
Wow, that's awesome!
How often you change the water and water spray this delicious wabi kusa?

Nice work , could you expand on the Osmocote pellets please , it was shown a bit quick to read the label....
Watch this video th-cam.com/video/34tgFtIaf_M/w-d-xo.html

Gorgeous! Curious why you chose to epoxy some parts and silicone others. Is epoxy stronger?
Thanks for the question. The benefits of epoxy in this case are 1. It "cures" within 1 minute, and fully cures in about an hour, and 2. It is more rigid. I use epoxy when I need a bond that is not going flex very much, and/or when I need it to attach quickly.
Another World Terraria makes sense. Thank you
Gorgeous and so creative...what light do you use and do you get algae?
Thank you. I use LED lights. Check out my video about "what lights I use." Some algae, but it's not too bad because the floating plants cut the light down and there are lots of plants in relation to the water volume, so they use a lot of the nutrients
Looks amazing!

cool bro
nice
Wouldn't it have been easier to just silicone the wood structure to a heavy flat stone and place it in the vessel?
That is one option that could work in some cases, but I prefer PU foam most of the time because it creates more structure and support. In this build it allowed me to set and lock in the wood exactly at the angle desired. It's an irregular piece of wood and there is no way it could be attached directly to a flat surface with silicone.

How do you treat algae growth?
Manual removal as needed

how many watts do you need for this?
Do you do any water changes with this? As there's obviously no filter etc. Would you consider the space to be enough for a very small fish? Perhaps shrimp?
In my opinion it's too small for animals but I suppose an extremely small shrimp might work. You would probably need to do regular water changes. I don't change the water that often.
Do you have any frogs.
No, the only animal I have is a Japanese Firebelly Newt.
You should show it to us!
I was thinking I would soon!
I bet he is a very happy newt:)
It is. I have had it for like 25 years or something
Aren't you stuck with that design in that formation now? What if it dies and you want to change the look? Rip bowl?
Looks nice though
Usually I leave my designs how they are, but I could probably get the wood and stuff out if I wanted to. Thanks for watching :)
