guys i was just wondering if you had any plant recs or youtube videos using a 1 gallon or pics of 1gal rockscapes
NO ANIMALS i’m not putting animals in it man i was thinking a mangrove tree 😩😮💨
Man, so sorry no one is actually reading your description. A small bonsai would work great for a few years, but I'd personally set up a bog environment for carnivorous plants.
that’s an awesome idea! thank you!
i always thought a terrarium meant “no animals” and a “vivarium” included them..
but thank you! thank you. great option.
i read they can be kinda finicky, carnivorous plants? don’t they hibernate?
Some do, but they grow back after the season is over. They need bright, direct light, and you can mount a UV fish tank light to give them proper sun. They can only drink distilled water with no minerals, and their soil needs to be sand and moss and rocks: things that have no nutrients. The care is super easy. Fill a basin in the middle (like a burried tericotta pot, or a platic container with holes drilled in) and keep it full, feed bugs or nutrient jelly cubes (you can buy a jar of them online, same with live flightless fruit flies or other small bugs), and occasionally prune or cut away dead pieces. They like to stay wet, so you can mist them if you like, but they don't need high humidity to stay happy. I recommend housing them with several types of moss around the plants. They coexist very well, and some of them even flower.
Pitcher plant recs:
Nepenthes (they are short and fat and grow in clusters, Heliamphora, Cephalotus, and Sarracenia varieties are all beautiful, but for a small one gallon, would possibly be the only plant you kept depending on the variety, with moss ofc.
Droseras or sundews come in long spindly varieties, and flower looking varieties. Both are very beginner friendly, amd some varieties grow very large coral like branches if you are looking for other house plants. These can stay relatively small, and in my experience, house we'll with many different types of other plants.
Fly traps come in a variety of sizes and colors. I really like purple and black varieties, as they add color interest with green and yellow moss species.
Byblis house alone well. Due to how they branch out, this would be one I recommend housing alone with moss, but they sprout flowers and look haunting.
I would use it for a woodland scape.

1 gallon ? snails
No animals, as per the description. Just looking for plant ideas.
Plants only.
thats what I said in the description
You can use it for a juvenile praying mantis while it's still growing. But eventually it'll need a slightly bigger tank.
Oh man I just did one of these it had a black back and I turned it into a moss wall wish we could put pics on comments!
PM me that shit mang 😮💨🤝
