How to make a BOWL Ecosystem?

???? How to Build a Self-Sustaining Ecosystem in a Glass Bowl | DIY Ecosystem Jar Tutorial ????????????
How do you transform a simple glass bowl into a miniature ecosystem? In this video, I’ll show you step by step how I created a self-sustaining aquatic world filled with plants, grazers, and even tiny predators.

✨ Build process:
1️⃣ Base layer of nutrient-rich aquasoil for healthy plant growth
2️⃣ A layer of crystal-clear sand for structure and beauty
3️⃣ Carefully arranged hardscape with rocks to anchor plants
4️⃣ Native pond plants for oxygenation and shelter
5️⃣ The secret trick: cover with a plastic bag before pouring in pond water & soil to keep the substrate undisturbed
✅ After just two weeks, this jar transformed into a thriving balanced ecosystem — complete with snails, insect larvae, and microorganisms coexisting naturally.

This method works for:
???? Closed jar ecosystems
???? Nano aquariums
???? Biotope bowls
???? Jarariums with snails and insect life
