Those Paramecium were having a nice tiptoe through the tulips unaware that the blinding eye of their god was beaming down at them from a microscope on a pile of dvds

A good video every once in a while is better than a lot of rushed videos, I think.

You know he's a true professional when he starts using dvd boxes to stabilize

this is better than most documentaries these days.

Hold on Mr Jar Man, that looks like Sheldon J Plankton

RIP crab, know that you are still remembered even after all these years 😔

God, 2 years of generations; all just knowing the jar as their world. Can't help but feeling I'm just in a jar being observed on some Alien's science fair table.

It's already been so long, eh? Time flies. **sad music**

Your voice talking about your ecospheres is so calming Also the red paramecium be looking kinda sus

My favorite part was how you pronounced “lil Thang!?”

Me: is ready to go to sleep Life in jar publishes a video about the seacosphere at 1 am (in my country) Me: *I don't need sleep I need answers*

6:14 Tardigrades are everywhere, in the deepest oceans, the highest mountains. They're even in space... but not by choice XD

I'm so pleased that you got the microscope, so you can show us the beauty of such tiny little creatures. I hope you enjoy your biology course. Thank you for uploading

This was very, very interesting! I would love to see a 3 year update.

No way it’s been two years, I remember the video like yesterday!

I was here before there were dislikes. I hope it stays that way Edit: it has come to my attention that the video has one dislike. I feel I am partly to blame. I am deeply sorry

i think it would be really fun, if, at the end of the year and your studies you sat down and talked about your first year college experience. i love that genre of videos since i aspire to be in college soon as possible, but i also think it would be nice to hear your take on what they taught you about ecology in school and whether youd like to pursue that path as well as which concentration you would be interested in. im also curious if youd be planning on doing research or not as some people enjoy it and others do not

Great video. So glad you mentioned bubble algae. I now finally know what it is I saw just two days ago on the seafloor in Curacao at a depth of about 1 meter. At first I thought it was a spherical piece of glass of about 1-2cm. I tried digging it out but it was firmly stuck. I noticed it was elastic so it had to be organic. I had absolutely no idea what it was but since you mentioned bubble algae I googled it and there it was. The organism I never knew existed.

You made this day a special day by just you being you and the best person you will ever be is your honest self

Vraag mij af of deze humor in het buitenland even veel gewaardeerd kan worden

very cool! you inspired me to start my own closed ecosystem, its going well at a month old (looking back I wish I used a larger container!). There was a snail and a baby crawfish that I have lost track of, but hoping they emerge someday!

always giving us viewers good content. Will wait for you next vid, upload whenever you have freetime, best wishes on your studies.

I like that I found this channel because of these seawater ecosystem videos on the day this video completed 1 year and 1 day of existence.

I never knew this 'life in kars' thing was a thing until today! Now I'm totally obsessed, gonna binge these all night now.

I like how he reads his comments and replies to them. Like no youtubers do that any more.

Very interesting to see all the various life forms that continue to do well in the closed system. This and the one-year update are the first of your videos I've watched, but I'm subscribing and looking forward to exploring the rest.

You inspired me and I created my own ecosphere and it is flourishing.

Love your music choice! Congrats and good luck with the focus on biology! Keep up the wonderful work

Your videos inspired me to start my own ecosphere with my local creek a few months ago and I recently started to see life. Mostly copepods but I've seen a worm thing and some tiny white dots

So happy to hear you’re studying. The world needs a smarty to keep teaching the way you do. All the best to you and thank you for your videos 🐙

Imagine my shock to be watching this in my home in Austin, TX and hear a school nearish to where I grew up mentioned in a Dutch video. Thank you for making these jars filled with life, and your videos filled with educational but hilarious content. Your videos give me the vibes I need when I'm having a bad day. Can't wait tomsee what you do next

I could listen to you talk about life in these jars all day! Biology is favorite!!

Can't believe I've been watching you for two years +. I love your channel man. Keep up the great work.

What a great update. Love the addition of the microscopic views. ❤

I used to live in Atascocita. It's considered part of Humble but is really its own city. Kinda cool

i'm studying biology in college with special interests in microbiology and ecology and i love your videos so much! (: thank you for your hard work in making them

Love your narration, humour and new learning you provide. Thank you for sharing.

I've just spent about an hour and a half watching videos and I find it so flipping fascinating.

This reminded me of Journey to the Microcosmos, one of my favorite shows. Thank you for it!

Thank you for telling me about the Valeria Ventricosa, that was such an interesting fact and I looked at a few really cool studies done on the algae. I feel like I learned so much!

Awe very good video enjoy it with the last one I wish you well in the future life goes on ..🙂

Beautiful video and thanks for the music on it.

Your videos are really great, don't worry about upload schedule, I'll always watch 💕

So cool man! Patiently awaiting your next video

Now I want to do this for kids to learn about ecosystem, thank you for the ideia!

Good to see you again. There is lots going on in that little jar after two years...it is fascinating. Thanks for taking the time.🖤🇨🇦

Very professional contraption indeed! Especially the DVD cases and butchers string

"Hold oN. There's a new track." I love how humorous you are.

I love this channel, it's so calming, I always watch it before bed lol

I enjoyed the video. Looks like it's about time for a three-year update. :)

Absolutely love the commentary.

You made this ecosphere on my birthday, I claim this as my favorite jar

That's very interesting. Infact i think i am going to start my own jar now

Another enjoyable watch as usual! Time to settle in and wait for the next one haha.

I'm glad to see an update.

love all your vids!!! keep it upppp

Tof video, man! Ziet er goed uit, vooral met de microscoop. Ecologie is één van mijn lievelings studie. Veel succes!

Wow nice 2 year update great content

This video made me happy, thank you!

Your videos are GREAT! Much better than mindless tv shows of today. Thank you!

It's just amazing to me seeing all of the cool and interesting little animals living their funky little lives in a tank that looks totally dead at first glance... Awesome 😁

I am immediately in love with this channel. It's so nice to just zonk out to! I'd love to make some royalty free music for you

Your narration is just sublime. You could even do some other biology videos explaining different organisms. Keep up the awesome content 😃👍

Congratulations to your biology studies!

Soon time for a three year update, love to see ehat happened

i’m so happy i found this channel!

Missed you eh, I love your updates.

Your videos take time to make but they are amazing biology you share with everyone! I hope it lasts forever!! 🍯

I got inspired. So I now made my first life in a jar. Exiting! It is a big old square plastic candy basket, with an airtight lid on top. I threw in (in order) compost, pond water, some fern leaves (with spores!), moss, fallen autumn tree leaves, a bird feather, some extra dirt that I know has an earthworm in it, and I topped it up by throwing in a fly that I caught by hand. I might have put in too much water in it, noting the water level. But we'll see. I already noticed, just 1 hour later... 1 small spider, an ant, a woodlice, and of course the earthworm and the fly I put in myself. I think I saw some other things crawl around... but not sure yet. ... I hope I did not put too much rotting stuff in it. So I have to make sure the plastic lid does not go bloated and pop off. I'll have to keep an eye out for that. If it does not happen, I'll tape up the top shut. If it does go bloated in some days... I'll probably have to let some air out. before closing permanently.... But what an interesting hobby! I can not stop watching at the thing. Hoping something will move. Tomorrow at daylight I'll start making photos of it. I got a micro lens, So I will be able to make good closeups. Too bad the plastic is not as see through as glass. I bought a glass bottle, but before I got home... it already cracked. It was too thin. I'll need a better glass jar. But first I want to see what the plastic candy basket does.

Just stumbled upon this guy and im already 3h deep into jars. Youre hilarious, sir

Brilliant! I wonder how different it would have been if that heat wave hadn't have happened. Great video, thank you.

cant wait for the year 3 bc this is so interesting :)

I learn more in a single one of your tangents than I ever did in a single day of American high school.

this is SO COOL! love it.

It's so fascinating! I really want to try something like this someday.

Oh hey! I'm in Texas, not too far from Atascosita. That's so cool that the middle school is a patron. We have a lot of nature reserves here that have very active water life, I'm sure the kiddos love seeing your videos, as do I. :)

We are going to need a four year update next

Great, I've been waiting for an update on this

The fact that there are 660 likes compared to only one dislike really shows how people are enjoying these type of videos.

Amazing stuff!

mindblown, maar mindblowner door je very professional contraption ❤

Mr jar man you've gotten me addicted to making ecospheres. 😂😂

Haha, what a great vid to drift by on my recommended list... That building across the street made it instantly recignizable for me that that's in the good ol" NL :D Good luck btw on your Biology studies

Lol love the "suspicious hook ups" but on a more serious note I'm glad I found your channel.

Humble Texas! That's near me😃😃😃😃 .....I'm houstonian 😃😃😃😃..... another wonderful, informative, entertaining video......by our beautiful jar man😄❤

Yesss, I've been waiting for this one

6:47 So have they tried to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula from you yet?

Thanks for uploading again Jar Dad

"Plankter"?! I live for the off-track - keep up the spontaneous details!!

Yeah, my boy is back with the jars!

Congrats on your field of study!

I don't think Jar Man is a nickname you'd want to have man hehe

your videos = instant anxiety cure

im living for that tardigrade! cheers

I love your videos!

What a good one. Music it’s a TOP

"On the glass community" Love that

The coolest seasosphere I've ever seen was a 7 year old opae ula jar at a reef shop that was covered in bubble algae and red on the bottom

hey, i watched a lot of your videos and they are really interesting. i have an unusual question/request, can you make a video with some kind of nightvision to see what happens in the jars at night/darkness, are there animals more active at night like predators and such?

Your design is too advanced for my simple mind to comprehend
