This unceremonious photo depicts one of my favorite terrarium tools, purchased for me by my sister at a hardware store. We refer to it as "the grabber" and I believe it is a tool for plumbers. It is about 18" and contains a claw at the end that can be opened and closed using a push lever at the other end.
The grabber is a bit much for everyday terrarium maintenance or planting. The true worth of the tool comes through when it comes to extraction situations: removing moldy or dead plants, removing fallen dead leaves, removing the miniature ceramic kitten you now decide is ruining the terrarium ambiance. I'd link out to a place to purchase this magical tool online but alas, I know of none.
Have you ever seen a "grabber" for sale online?
Plumbing supply dot com has one! It's called a "handy grabbing tool" and it's 24 inches long and flexible. $6.49.
