Another quick update: More orchids are in bloom and for those of you who were wondering if this would ever relate to frogs, there are now two Hymenochirus sp. inhabiting the pond. No dart frogs for now, I'm afraid. A dozen neon's were also added.

Haha, well... I cheated a little and about half of the orchid plants I added were already in spike or bud. I think there is room for a few more, hopefully a few summer time bloomers. Fortunately, there are already some in the display that will bloom almost year round.

Wow looks awesome.
I remember Al saying how he loved the look of our dart tanks.

Maybe I will stop by this weekend and check it out.

Hopefully his selection is as good as I remember.

Time for an update ya'll! The warmer temperatures and higher light of spring have brought some changes to the display! The aquatic area had to be dredged before the 'photo shoot' and it could easily use another hour or two of trimming. It certainly is nice to see it growing in so nicely, if a bit densely in places. Enjoy!
