DIY Waterfall Terrarium Kit

This unique terrarium kit really takes your terrarium to the next level, to help you create a stunning waterfall terrarium.

This unique terrarium kit really takes your terrarium to the next level, including an inbuilt water pump and fogger to help you create a stunning waterfall terrarium.

A waterfall terrarium is a great way to bring some natural beauty into your home, and this terrarium kit makes it easy to create one.

Creating a waterfall terrarium is easy with this LED Rock Garden & Waterfall Terrarium Kit. Here are the steps to follow:

1. Choose a terrarium container. This waterfall terrarium kit includes a water pump and fogger and is perfect for creating a waterfall terrarium.

2. Place rocks/gravel/stones in the bottom of the terrarium. You’ll need enough to cover the entire bottom of the terrarium and create a layer that is at least 1 or 2 inches deep.

3. Add water to your terrarium. The water should be deep enough to reach the top of the rocks. Use filtered water! Filtered water in terrariums is essential to keeping your terrarium healthy and free of bacteria and other contaminants.

4. Create a waterfall slope. Build your terrarium up to the top of the container using layers of plants, rocks, moss, and decorative items, creating a slope so that the water being pumped out can cascade down to the bottom. Get creative by creating stone pathways to direct the water, and keep in mind the plants that come into contact with water – these should be plants that can most tolerate wet/moist conditions.

4. Add your plants. Choose plants that will thrive in a terrarium environment. Be sure to add enough plants to create a dense coverage. Check out our terrarium plant library for some terrarium plant ideas. Some common plants for terrariums include:

  • Ferns
  • Ivy
  • Moss
  • Peperomia

5. Turn on the water pump. The kit comes with everything you need to create a stunning waterfall terrarium. Turn on the water pump and watch as the waterfall flows.
