here's an update and maintenance video of a rainfall paludarium that I made a 49 days ago.
how to make a rain paludarium- • i made a terrarium rai...
the main concept of this project is to bring nature home in smaller scales.
having such miniature landscapes not only add beauty to your living scapes, also the visual effects like natural light or FLOWING water, help reduces stress levels and improve moods.

Aluminium plant is a great fit for this setup! Have you thought about adding a cleanup crew? no need for slaters in there but a few springtails would remove any mould before it becomes visible. Thank you for this update, I love this paludarium!

I made one like this, based in the first video. I’m 2 weeks in and so far so good. But, I only ‘turn on the rain’ for an hour or so each day - seems like it would stay too wet otherwise. Holes for aeration were a great addition in this video!

is the pump loud?

@nathanmillard 11 ай бұрын

@@Covid-me1xf I used a USB pump, similar to the one in the video. It is not loud. The sound of dripping water drowns out the sound of the pump completely. But, my terrarium isn’t doing great. It’s staying too wet and the moss and other plants are suffering. I should have made a better false bottom so the water drains through faster and used a faster draining soul mix. Anyway, a fun project and will probably have another attempt in the future. I think a small area of a bigger terrarium with this feature would be easier. E.g. rain falling into a ‘pond’ that is fully separated from the rest of the build.

@Nitidus 11 ай бұрын

That's why choice of materials is so important. And maintenance, of course - removing dead plant matter especially. I think it would be even easier to make it bigger and add some springtails and some centipedes that can deal with the moisture to get a natural composting cycle going. You already have denitrifying bacteria in the clay balls to convert the poo into nitrates which subsequently fertilizes the water again so it doesn't lose all the nutrients as fast, encouraging plant growth. Honestly, if you just put some fertilizer into the water every week, you probably wouldn't even have to change water at all. Of course use distilled or reverse osmosis water in the first place and this could be pretty easy to maintain. Provided it's large enough to support a stable, subsistent miniature eco system, of course.

Bonjour , Nouveau sur le site , venant de l'aquariophilie , je voudrais apporter une précision sur le charbon Charbon actif (à partir d'os) ou le charbon domestique (vegetal) , il est bien connu que le charbon est excellent en effet (desodorisant , aseptisant , clarifiant , absorbant les métaux lourds , etc....) , mais si il est utilisé trop longtemps , il "relargue" les éléments qu'il a filtré ! Notre intérêt est donc de pouvoir le remplacer environ tous les mois pour en tirer les profits , sans les désagréments ! L'inclure dans le sol et le laisser en place me paraît donc une mauvaise idée ! Sauf si vous avez une cascade et une place pour sortir la pompe pour entretiens , auquel cas , vous pouvez en mettre dans un filet , autour du tuyau de remonté d'eau ! En remontant la pompe , vous pourrez changer le charbon .... Qu'en pensez vous , n'avez vous jamais eu de problèmes sur le long terme ? Peut être que les plantes sont moins sensibles que les poissons ? (Qui peuvent en mourir , les crevettes y étant encore plus sensibles !!! ) Peut être ne sert il plus à rien une fois qu'il a accumulé .... puis relargué ... devenant inerte ? En tous cas , je suis un peu étonné de son utilisation sous le sol !!! Merci de vos expérience ... 😉😎

Make another one - much taller - hide the drip tray behind wider wood slats, and use smaller holes for smaller drops of water.. also, your ‘holes for aeration’ seem to be capped by the lid to the drip tray, their chimneys need to be higher and cutout through the lid. It’s beautiful, by the way, my nasty mouth notwithstanding. I do however think it could be improved by being taller, the drops being smaller, and the drip mechanism and light hidden behind a larger mask of wood. Also, someone mentioned sprintails! Good idea. What about making the drip lid itself from a 2-way mirror, so that light from above passes through, but looking up from below with the light off would just show a reflection of the tank below. And lastly, it just came to mind after reading so many comments about it being too wet - I’ve an idea that might be of use. Separate the mud on the walls from the water reservoir - let the only water it receives be from the rain. Then you can turn it on when the soil starts getting dry, like a normal houseplant, sort of - i mean, at least you get to decide - IF the soil is kept seperate from the reservoir in the rocks.
