What is a terrarium? A terrarium is a small contained eco-system used to grow plants. Small amphibians can be added, along with fish to make a rainforest type living habitat. The species of amphibians should be docile and reclusive such as frogs, toads, salamanders and newts. These amphibians remain small enough that they will not outgrow the terrarium.
The type of plants used to fill your terrarium should be water loving bog plants. Moss, lichen, miniature ferns are good choices along with begonias and African violets. These soggy loving plants are manageable within a terrarium when pruned to prevent over growth.
If fish are desired, add small species such as guppies. Guppies are great for terrariums since they eat water insects, waste matter and the mites that can breed within the moist environment. If fish are added to the amphibian terrarium, feed the amphibians often to keep them from eating the small fish as dinner.
