The media could not be loaded. Absolutely perfect little gift idea. The rocks were literally from the garden and the moss was from a fake tree I have in the living room. There's ventilation at the top of the terrarium as well as the little door you can leave open or close. It is glass and not sealed to keep water in. Fort might also spill out. I recommend using some sort of sealant. The small door makes that difficult though. What I did was repurpose the plastic container the the plant came in originally. I was able to invert the little cup the little pot sat on and make it like a little bowl to catch excess water. There's definitely ways to go around it so don't let these comments about water leakage discourage you.

This is an awesome little container that I use to keep my micro cacti safe. I had an air plant in it originally, but it ended up dying because it wasn't getting enough air when I kept it closed. It works perfectly for this though!

I bought two of these (tall style) to hang near the ceiling on either side of our bed from cast iron plant hangers back in September. We put a set of remote-control fairy lights in them, which are super light weight. In November, we came home one night to find one had broken and landed on my pillow. It must've ricocheted off the wall. Super scary... just thankful I wasn't sleeping when that happened. It took me some time to muster up the courage to buy a replacement but I'm here to do that now because otherwise these are nice and seemed good quality. The metal might be brittle though, so don't hang something the least bit heavy in these!

There's 3 massive holes towards the top of the this terrarium. It does not close. It's always open. I don't use these for plants, I use them for my jumping spiders homes. There's no way I can use this. I wasted quite a bit of time waiting for this for it to not be what I need. LAME. Will be returning.

I read the other reviews about the leaking issues, so I was prepared. My kids got a Venus Flytrap that grew very fast. I bought the terrarium and replanted with extra moss. I put the planted terrarium inside a glass plate. The terrarium did leak as stated by others, but Ibwas careful about adding more then a few Tbl. of water at a time. It's super cute and a great size for the price.
