100 Days Later: Did My Saltwater Paludarium Thrive or Fail?

100 days ago, I took on an ambitious project: creating a saltwater paludarium that blends elements of a reef aquarium, a lush tropical oasis, and a thriving ecosystem aquarium. This unique setup combines a shallow reef tank with mangroves, macro algae, corals, and live plants—all within a carefully designed habitat. It’s part vivarium, part saltwater aquarium, and part experimental ecosystem terrarium.

But here’s the twist: most plants aren’t naturally saltwater tank-friendly. Could this fusion of a reef tank and a planted aquarium really work? Or was it destined to fail? In this video, I’m bringing you the most exciting update yet, covering every detail from growth breakthroughs to unexpected setbacks.

You’ll see how the coral reef tank evolved, how the corals and macro algae fared, and even what role a sea cucumber played in maintaining this intricate ecosystem. Whether you’re a fan of aquariums, a fish tank enthusiast, or simply fascinated by innovative saltwater fish tank designs, you won’t want to miss this update.

Join me as I dive into the journey of building this reef aquarium, testing nature’s adaptability, and creating a stunning habitat for both plants and aquatic life. Watch now to see if this experiment turned into the ultimate coral aquarium or just a lesson in what not to do. Let's explore this living ecosystem together!
