Some substrate has slipped through my barrier. Question!
Hey everyone. I recently set up a 20 gal long with materials I ordered from Joshs frogs. One thing I noticed after putting in the water table rocks was that the substrate barrier mesh was cut 24 x 18. I ordered my materials under n inclusive package for a 20 gallon long. While I wasn't happy about this I decided to trim the liner into two pieces that would properly cover the surface area of the tank. Then I added my ABG mix. I noticed that in several areas a pinch of ABG had slipped over the edges of my barrier into the drainage layer.
This is my first terrarium so perhaps I am being overly cautious. My concern with is that his could foul the whole tank. I would appreciate some experienced hobbyists who could let me know if they have experienced this a al. If it is ok or if I should go to home depot and get some more liner and try again. It will be a pain to take everything out and sort it but I am just not happy. I can't stop worrying. I have attached a couple photos to show precisely what I am talking about. Please help. Should I take It apart or leave it?
