I made a teranium with stones at the bottom a good layer of soil and further stones on top and after using a succulent feed all of the plants died!!  
Can anyone suggest any unkillable plants for a medium/large bottle teranium please? Also the teranium isn’t near a window but is in a bright room. Thanks

Was the succulent terrarium a closed terrarium? Succulents can’t handle the moisture and humidity of a closed terrarium. For a bottle terrarium, I would recommend nerve plants and polka dot plants, since they like the humidity.

Hi no it wasn’t a closed terrarium

I’ve been given this little plant is it ok to go into an open bottle terrarium please?

Succulents still need really good drainage and glass doesn’t really do that… nerve plants are good. I also have a compact zz plant that is basically unkillable as long as you don’t drown it (it’ll turn yellow as a warning if you do), also arrowhead plants? Pretty good, happy in sunlight
