Ecosystem-in-a-Bottle: A Living Wonder for Your Space

Bring nature indoors with our Ecosystem-in-a-Bottle, a self-sustaining, low-maintenance ecosystem that thrives with just light! This innovative mini-world showcases the perfect harmony between plants, animals, and microorganisms, creating a unique decorative piece or an engaging “pet” for children.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Effortless Care: No feeding, no cleaning—just place it in sunlight or under fluorescent light, and let nature do the rest.
  • Customizable Design: Choose the sand color, a branch, and seal color to match your decor.
  • Educational and Fun: Watch the symbiotic relationship between the scud (tiny shrimp), snails, marimo moss, and microorganisms as they work together in a cycle of life.

How It Works:

Your ecosystem includes:

  • Custom Sand Layer: A cozy home for bacteria that break down waste for the marimo moss.
  • Scud (Shrimp Relatives): Small, fascinating creatures that keep the ecosystem lively while benefiting from the marimo moss.
  • Snails: Slower, larger inhabitants of your ecosystem, helping to keep the glass clean.
  • Marimo Moss: The ecosystem’s powerhouse, absorbing waste and releasing oxygen for the scud to breathe.
  • Branch Rest Area: Adds visual appeal and provides a spot for the scud to relax.

The Perfect Gift or Conversation Starter

These elegant ecosystems are not only a joy to watch but also a testament to the beauty of balanced life. Whether it’s for your home, office, or as a unique gift, this miniature ecosystem is bound to spark curiosity and awe.

Made-to-Order for Lasting Quality

Each ecosystem is carefully made to order and requires up to two weeks to stabilize before shipping. This ensures your miniature world is healthy and ready to thrive in its new home.

Care

Ecosystems thrive in well-lit environments. For optimal results, place your ecosystem near a window with natural sunlight or under a fluorescent or grow light. If more than one animal passes away in a single day (occasional losses due to age or illness are normal), this could indicate the ecosystem requires additional light. Conversely, if the water begins to turn green, reduce the light exposure slightly to maintain balance. Adjusting the lighting will help support a healthy and stable ecosystem.

During the first three days after setting up or relocating your ecosystem, check it at least once daily to ensure all inhabitants are thriving and to determine if additional light is required.
