    Hi all.. I'm exploring some terrariums using the moss yogurt mix. However, i am getting some sort of mold or fungus on them...

    I cover them with the cellophane plastic sheet to keep moisture in.. And also open it on a daily basis so that it will not get too moist... What am i doing wrong here. And how should i rectify this situation?
    Thanks.

    I think if you air the tank, the mold will dry up. I got this in my bottle moss terrarium as well.

    AhvY, without good ventilation, it is quite easy to get these....

    Ah Vy, the moss must constantly run thru with water or misting. They will not last long or do well if you use the cellophane plastic sheet to cover them.

    Let it air, the exo terra tank can contain moist and humidity, so don't require the cellophane plastic.
    Do mist them daily will be good.
