I created my dream tank, a 1000 gallon cloud rainforest vivarium, and constructing it has been quite a journey. It is fully stocked with tropical plants, automated climate control, and even some creatures that managed to sneak in through the terrarium decor. However, the goal of the vivarium experiment was to recreate and study a rainforest ecosystem so to complete the project, I needed to add more animals. Little did I know, doing so would amp up the biological action within the vivarium in a way that I could never have predicted. Hope you enjoy Part 6 of my ecosystem vivarium series. Ant love forever! This video was shot in 4K Ultra HD resolution.

    OMG, AC Family, I can't believe we did it! I can't believe the results of this project, and it just got crazier!
  • @YouTube
    the most impressive part is that you werent scared to be near all those bugs
  • @DocHoody
    ACCanada: “Ewwwww worms!” Also ACCanada: “Look how beautiful the cockroaches are!”
  • @DramaticDylan
    NOT THE HOUSE GECKO!!! She never stood a chance...
  • @random_duck1
    "... The coolest roaches -" Me: "There's no such thing as 'coolest roac- OH METALIC COLORED ROACHS!'"
  • As someone who has worked at PetSmart working with crickets for over 2 years. I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that crickets, through some sort of unholy dark magic, no matter how small or avoidable it is, will always find a way to drown themselves in a body of water and die. So I don't think you need to worry to much about the other insects drowning, this is just what crickets do lol.
  • @Adiosssssssss
    This would be so cool if it have a 24/7 live stream where we can see animals activity real-time...
  • @groom-ni2ye
    This guy literally feels like an evil/misunderstood scientist, who just looks and sounds evil, but is actually a very good guy.
  • @user-ne6kn1km3w
    The script. The editing. The cinematography. The musical scoring. AMAZING Series.
  • @allanshpeley4284
    Pretty sure that Gecko's death was unnatural. In nature there wouldn't be nearly as high a population of ants in such a small area and there would be ways for it to escape the ants.
  • @smokimoon418
    I love how you called it ‘Gaia’ as she is Mother Earth/goddess of Earth in Greek Mythology! That little touch made me enjoy the video more.
  • I remember when this guy was picking bugs off the sidewalk 😭 He's come so far it's crazy 🤯
  • @mrssirens
    So interesting, initially I thought that releasing that many things so fast would be too much. But seeing how fast everything got processed and re-used by the other parts of the ecosystem made me realize just how common predator/prey deaths were on a day by day basis.
  • @drippgoku5837
    G.A.I.A was the most genuinely genius acronym to come up with
  • Adding carnivorous plants to the enclosure would be amazing. They seem like a perfect fit and could create unique and captivating viewing experiences.
  • @AVOWIRENEWS
    That sounds like an incredible journey into creating a miniature ecosystem! Adding animals to a giant rainforest vivarium must bring such a dynamic and lively aspect to it. It's fascinating how each creature plays a role in maintaining the balance of this mini rainforest. The idea of replicating nature's complexity on a smaller scale is truly a remarkable endeavor. I can imagine the vivid colors and diverse behaviors of the animals adding so much vibrancy to the vivarium. It's a beautiful way to connect with nature and appreciate the intricacies of different habitats. Keep exploring and enjoying the wonders of the natural world! 🌿🐸🦋

    All I could think of at 25:20 was har har har har har har har har har har. Seriously though, I started watching you when I was 9 and have been amazed again and again by how much you evolved as a youtuber, but essentially a god (In the eyes of the creatures, of course.) I'm 15 now and can't wait to see how this Vivarium grows!
  • @AnimeExorcist
    The level of quality on this video is absolutely insane. This is seriously an incredible project. Felt like I was watching a documentary.
  • This is some of the most insane high end level content I have ever seen on YouTube in over 10 years. Deserves all the views it gets and more bro, I appreciate your work.
