WORKSHOPS / HABITAT TERRARIUM

Habitat Terrarium Workshop in Singapore

Build a full habitat terrarium using a MIUS tank, combining hardscape, planting, and environmental systems into a complete, display-ready ecosystem.

What Youโ€™ll Create

A complete habitat built from structure to planting

Create your own habitat terrarium within a MIUS tank, combining driftwood, rock, substrate, and live plants into a structured and balanced environment. Each build is designed as a complete system โ€” from hardscape foundation to planted landscape, ready for display and long-term growth.

What Youโ€™ll Do

A guided process from structure building to planting

Youโ€™ll build your habitat step-by-step, starting with structural preparation, followed by hardscape development, and finishing with substrate layering and planting.

Prepare Structure / Build Base

Creating the foundation for your habitat

Work with expanding foam to establish the base structure of your terrarium. This forms the foundation that supports the layout and defines the overall shape of your environment.

Build Hardscape / Position Wood& Rock

Shaping the structure of your landscape

Select and arrange driftwood and rocks to create the main structure of your habitat. Secure elements in place and refine the layout to support both aesthetics and function.

Layer Plant / Bring Habitat to Life

Completing the environment

Add substrate layers and begin planting with moss, bromeliads, hoya, and air plants. Complete the scene by integrating all elements into a cohesive and natural-looking habitat.

How the Build Works

Single session or full multi-session experience

Habitat terrariums involve structural curing and staged building. Depending on your preference, the workshop can be completed in one session or experienced across multiple visits.

Build Approach

Habitat terrariums involve structural curing and staged construction. Choose between a single-session experience with a prepared base, or a multi-session build that includes the full process from start to finish.

Single Session Build

Prepared by Green Chapter
  • Foam base is pre-built and cured before your session
  • Focus on hardscape, substrate, and planting
  • Ideal for completing your habitat in one visit

Multi-Session Build

Full process experience
  • Includes foam spraying and curing stage
  • Requires multiple visits due to drying time
  • More immersive, hands-on experience

System Setup

Select how your habitat operates โ€” from a natural planted setup to a fully equipped system with lighting, fogging, and misting for controlled environments.

Standard Package

Focus on structure and planting
