I had no idea when I began sharing my art on RU-vid, that I'd still be doing it 10 years later (3,652 days) while inspiring others in the process. It more or less all started with a humble vivarium, then to terrariums, and the rest is history. It's been quite a journey and this recap really only scratches the surface of what happened. Inevitably a lot of material had to be removed to maintain a concise presentation. Thank you for 10 years!

If it wasn't clear enough in the video, I'm extremely humbled by your support. Your kind words and interactions have especially encouraged me over the years. I've seen the comments and talked to many of you in person about it. I just wanted to share my art. What I never expected was how my art could inspire so many. It's really more than I can ask for. Thank you SerpaSquad for 10 years! Here's to the next 10 and beyond. I'm only just getting started and can't wait to show you what I've been working on.

Your channel and you have been my inspiration for several years. I am an avid gardener and animal keeper. I am a retired librarian, farmer, teacher and parent. I also am challenged by depression. I am approaching 80 and as my stamina and strength decline due to aging I have found terrariums to be my direction in gardening. Thank you for sharing your gifts, vision and taught us your skills. May you prosper and thrive with God’s blessings.

And that’s not an overstatement - inspiring people to connect with nature in ways that fulfill our souls is meaningful.

This video hit me where I live. I am completely in the same place you mention at the beginning, stuck in a hole of not knowing what to do or where to go, and I'm in my early 50's so it doesn't bode well. I just wanted to say thank you for all your hard and courage to keep going. I only found your channel last year after inheriting my son's 7 year old crested gecko and needing to do research on it providing the best care for her. We love her so much and she is just so intelligent and personable. Although our tank setup is nothing like the wonderous creations you have made, it is inspired by what you have done and is fully bio-active which she seems to love. The down side (according to my husband) is my new obsession with a tank fully dedicated to my growing isopods.😂

Someone else said it already: your builds are centered around the animal's needs AND beautiful. So many creators just scape something for the artsy aspect and then drop animals inside to compliment their design (e. g. sparsly planted tanks and then drop a betta fish in - they need places to hide and hate bright light!). I love your creativity, your love and care for your animals, and I admire what you and your wife did overcome. Can't have been easy to work yourself to exhaustion!

I really enjoy seeing snippets of what goes on behind the scenes because it really does show, that no ones life is in any way perfect. This video was more than just a story of your channel but it shared a way to look at life. Work hard, have hope, and enjoy every day that comes along. I think part of the reason that your videos are so amazing is that you don't try to emphasize anything, you let the videos speak for themselves. You present us with mind-blowing camera shots, fascinating designs, and tie each video together with a simple, yet impactful narration. You are the only youtuber that I can watch video after video without ever getting bored. I have been subscribed for a long time now, and have never got tired watching your content. Thanks so much for all the videos you have made and will continue to make!

Wisdom from an older person: we carry all the persons and ages we've been with us always. I'm 70 but sometimes I feel inside like that young girl going camping with my Girl Scout troop, that teenage hippie chick, that scared brand new mother, the newly divorced woman living alone for the first time ever, the woman who traveled in an RV to find a new place to live, the woman who did good work and is now retired. I will carry all those girls and women with me forever and add them to the woman I will be as I age. So don't be surprised that you remember those experiences and lessons clearly, they are you! Thank you for sharing your journey, I enjoyed it, just as I enjoy all your project videos. I always appreciate the love you feel for your animals.

Awesome channel ran by an awesome person. I have a love for plants and aquariums, and have always been made to feel like weirdo. Sitting in my office with all of my plants watching your videos is my happy place. I truly hope your channel continues to grow, because I believe the amount of work and passion you have for this hobby shouldn't go unrewarded. Thank you for all that you do for this ever growing community.

You helped me jump-start my love for terrariums a few years ago and they are all still going strong. Your creativity is very inspiring and I can reassure you that all the dedication and sacrifices that made this channel happen have paid off in ways you don't even know. Keep doing you and we'll all be just fine man!

Found this channel a week ago when a jumping spider crawled into my life and I needed to build it a home. I have watched dozens of hours in only a week! I had no idea watching vivarium builds would be so relaxing and interesting. I'm hooked. I ordered supplies and can't wait to build a more permanent vivarium for my spider. I also am making plans for a larger build for a milksnake after 😁 New hobby aquired. Thanks Tanner!

I can't believe I have watched for... almost since 2017? You have helped me through depression and all kinds of other mental health dips. I wouldn't have ever thought I'd be able to keep reptiles or vivariums, which are a huge passion of mine, but today I have a Veiled Chameleon and multiple jar terrariums in my window. It's not a lot, but its enough. My quality of life has really improved and your channel helped me get here. 🌿🙏

Wow!!! Just Wow!!! You are the greatest Terrarium Art Designer in RU-vid. You are my number one. I subscribe to other terrarium designers out there but there’s nothing like you. You are unique and your arts beyond excellent. From filming, to building, to making short movies about your animals….you are a one band show. You quite inspired me and you’re the reason why I started building bioactive terrarium for my mantis. Thank you for being you. 🌺🌿🌺🌿🌺

Hey man I’ve been a subscriber since the very beginning of your stuff and I have to say that you have been a huge influence in my own bio active terrarium journey. As a person in my age group I just wanted to let you know that you’re not alone in your experiences and struggles. It’s hard for our generation but one thing we all have is that drive, passion and perseverance even if no one else sees it. I’m so happy for you and I hope you continue to do what you love!

Tanner, what always comes across in your videos is what a truly nice bloke you are, and it is clear how much you appreciate the Serpa Squad. What always comes through is your love of nature, design, plants and wildlife, the huge thought, planning, and effort you put into every build, as well as your passion for what you do. You are an inspiration, and I have learnt so much from watching your videos. Having said all of that, personally, I would much rather wait longer for your excellent videos, knowing that you have a better work/life balance, than have frequent videos pop up, but worrying about you and everything behind the scenes. Thank you so much for all that you have done of the past 10 years, and here's to sharing many, many more years with you! xxxx

Tanner, thank you for your honesty in your struggles, without falling into the "trauma p*rn" a lot of creators cultivate. Your simple tutorials on how to build terrariums for free, bringing nature indoors to people who are dealing with depression, mobility issues, etc, are life-changing. Thank you.

I remember talking about your channel to a friend, I found the message, here's how I described you: "Serpadesign he's the goat, he has unironically become a cornerstone of terrarium building r/terrariums is damn near r/serpadesign" for you old folk, goat means 'greatest of all time' which in my case, get thrown around a lot, but it's actually 100% true in this scenario. Thanks for existing Serpa.

This made me feel very melancholy. It’s fantastic to see someone doing so well and knowing what they’re supposed to be doing with their life, and being rewarded for that. Especially as someone who also battles depression, seeing others who have beat the loneliness and have found a way forward always makes me glad. I just wish I had the same certainty. I’ve spent the last ten years wasting away to a shell of what I used to be. Every day is a horrible grind of pain and loneliness and unfulfilling experiences. I focused on all the wrong things and used what time I did have incorrectly, giving away to other people but never for myself. I don’t want to make you feel bad or anything, it just makes me think. And I’m sincerely happy that you’ve come so far. I remember watching your first videos and they really helped me get into terrariums and plants when I was just looking for a peaceful hobby somewhat associated with the aquariums I used to love but could no longer keep. Without your videos I wouldn’t have had a clue where to even start! And I’ve watched every single video since then. You’re a big inspiration and the universe obviously knew we needed you and gave you a sign to stick with it. And now you’re here.

Your wife has a name! I’ve been discovering your channel recently, and I was wondering! I understand more now why your builds are so magically beautiful. Whether or not you know it, I believe that you are using your degree. Sometimes I just want to look at something beautiful. Eye candy, so to speak. Your videos deliver, and teach me something as well. I only have one 30 gallon aquarium, and want to extend the scape vertically. I love the way you show us how to save money by building things ourselves. I think I came back to study your channel in more depth because of your Ikea tank build video. Your success and expansion is as fun to watch as the rest of your content. I have found a singular passion to pursue like this… several times, without taking anything far enough to earn a good living, so there’s a vicarious delight in watching you do what you love. I’ve subscribed, and I’m wondering, does that make me a member of the Serpa Squad? I get depression, and I get the way that nature’s beauty alleviates it. I’m grateful that you’ve kept creating through all the setbacks and hurdles. Thank you.

This channel has been, and continues to be, such a huge inspiration for myself and many friends I have who share the same interests! I finally got a job this January at a local aquarium store, and have been excited to start many more projects. Maybe even a channel of my own one day. Showing the journey and growth you've worked so hard for is an incredibly positive influence on beginners in the hobby, and provides a lot of hope for those of use struggling or just starting out. Thank you for being a leader in the world of art and education, and for having the courage to share the high and low parts of what your path has had to offer

Tanner I’ve been watching you for years & you are by far the best & MY FAVORITE aquascaper/fish/animal keeper on RU-vid. There are a lot nowadays and you can easily tell the ones who have passion and the ones who just do it for views/clout. I can’t stand when you can clearly tell when they don’t care about the animals, only clickbait and views. You make the most incredible builds and are so creative. It’s crazy to see what all you were going through through all of the stages of your channel and never once could I have been able to tell. You always still brought quality content and it’s super-human IMO! Love your channel and will be following for many more years hopefully!! Thanks so much for all you do!

I leave for university this year, so I will be back to living out my hobby through you. So happy to see your success, keep smashing it Tanner.

I've been watching this channel for quite some time now, watching someone else do what I love doing myself has been more than enjoyable...and keeps the urge of buying more aquariums or terrariums at a manageable level, at least for a little while haha. Other than that there's just one thing to say: Tanner, I am very happy for you and dare I say proud for the progress you've made and I'm excited for the things to come. Greetings from Luxembourg and all the best to you and you're wife!

Hey Tanner the the quality of videos you deliver is always worth the wait, please don’t ever worry about taking a break here and there because you are only human.
