Looking for feedback on my first paludarium
I’ve been lurking here for awhile and would like some feedback on my first paludarium.
18×18×24 tropical build that’s been establishing for several weeks. It has a false bottom/drainage layer, ABG substrate, circulating waterfall/stream, automatic misting, and a recently added continuous internal circulation fan. Springtails are well established, moss and small ferns are spreading naturally, and the water has remained very clear.
Humidity runs high, particularly near the substrate, so I’m currently monitoring how much the added airflow improves conditions before adding any animals. Eventually considering dart frogs, but I’m in no hurry, I want the enclosure stable first.
Would especially appreciate constructive criticism or anything you see that I should address before introducing inhabitants.
And yes, I used gpt to help make my post more coherent.
