Bonsai Terrarium

[BonsaiPyro]

I have a Ficus Bonsai and I put it in a 10 gallon fish tank with a little grass plant that it came with and a quartz rock I found I also put 2 smaller rocks just for effect I need to know if it will live in that or not, I do everything I'm supose to it's just not in a bonsai pot......

Having a bonsai in a terrarium can be a very good thing, but it can pose some problems. You can get Powdery Mildew if there is poor ventilation for your tree. All it is is a white, floury layer of fuzzy stuff and will eventually kill the tree. I had it once and all I did was ventilate my terrarium more.

I think you have chosen a good species for this experiment. What type of lighting are you using?
