# Here’s my first terrarium assembled. Thanks for the input on tank…

Here’s my first terrarium assembled. Thanks for the input on tank size, Wolfen!

I never use my fireplace, so I thought I’d throw a terrarium in there. Used a clamp light to get the lighting sorted and a furniture dolly to let me bring it out to service it.

Doesn’t have isopods, but I did buy some springtails to control mold.

My girlfriend does stained glass, so I’m thinking it might be nice to hang some above the tank since I have the backlighting and it would fill the empty space.

Still have some ideas for the space outside the tank, but the plants should be situated. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep it going.
