What happens when your bumblebee millipede colony completely overpopulates its enclosure? In this video, we tear down an overcrowded millipede jar, count them all up, and discover over 400 bumblebee millipedes (Anadenobolus monilicornis) needing an urgent upgrade!
Watch the full step by step DIY bioactive terrarium build as we transform huge glass jar into a near self-sustaining tropical rainforest ecosystem. From mixing the ultimate bioactive millipede substrate - rich in decaying oak wood, leaves, worm castings ,and moss, to planting lush mosses, vining creeping fig (Ficus pumila), and vibrant cryptanthus, this new home gives this massive cleanup crew the space they need to thrive.
