Being very proud of these creations, I have a few things to share with y'all! I love building Vivariums, as they are almost completely self-sufficient, needing only water and the occasional leaf litter, and they take nature and put a bit of it in a glass container (which I gotta say, is surprisingly satisfying). If anyone else has some cool outworlds/vivariums to show, please do! Lots to be inspired from. Here's the first one:
My 4th edition of this Vivarium (I never took pictures of the first few versions, sadly) I used to have a desert-like world in here, and before that a series of woodland worlds. This one has tons of Wood bugs inside, as well as aphids, which sadly are not the kind that ants farm, but the type that they hunt to eat. So no harm done I guess! Planning to eventually introduce a colony in here sometime, but unsure which type.
My latest Vivarium, which I've called Gnome Island. This one's specifically designed for my Lasius Niger colony to enter through a small port among the wood bits through a bit of vinyl tubing. Planning to introduce plenty of soil creatures here at some point (and line the edges with some vaseline, of course).
Sorry about the bad visual quality here, I don't have a very good phone to take pictures with...hoping to get a better camera someday!
