First steps into Aqua-terrarium/Paludrium

[Abhishek]

Hey All,

First of all Many Many Thanks to Abhradip for planning and doing this wonderful scape, thanks Magha(dude in Kannada)

I am back to bore you guys with some more invert related updates

Some days back got vampire crab from one of my dealer and they were always in my hit list of I want, I want to keep list!!!
No second thought ordered them!!!

Ordered 6, 1 died in transit rest 5 got into the temporary setup. Next day 1 more died..
Abhro voluntered and asked me to get his paludrium, but my mind was asking for a more bigger setup so after having some words with him decided will convert my 3footer only fish tank into a paludrium. In the mean time one more crab died.

Next day relocated the crabs to my 3 footer with sand as substrate and little bit water!!!

14th February - Abhro decided this date to scape the tank for this 'Forever Alone Soul' and thus work begin...
We got some plants from the nursery and also some soil from them.
Got stone,wood from Abhro's palu and also moss and the work begins. I also have some drifts which were used.

Enough talking now picture time..

AC working...
