  1. The Vision Begins to Come Together!!

    Over a year ago a old stump I found in the forest sparked a vision of a spilt-tank design where a pond and the trunk would join the tanks together visually, this week that idea in my head started to tangibly take shape!!

    Bought these 3 species for my vivarium, any tips?

    It’s been years since anyone started a thread discussing the general success of Paphiopedilum in vivariums. Anyone have any successes/failures worth noting in the last few years? Any helpful techniques or ideal species? Planning an orchid heavy first vivarium and wanted to include a paph as a...

    I'm an intermediate keeper and I'm wondering what orchids are safe and easy to find for dart frogs.

    Pretty much everyone knows the ABG name around here as substrate wizards, but their conservatory has some most mind-boggling tropical plant collections. I'm lucky enough to have been gifted a membership and can pop in any time, as I did yesterday while my power was out for a few hours. I'm no...

    Hi, Here is the progress on my InSitu Alto. Inspired by Doug's(Pumilo) "Jungle Gym" build. Approximately 150ish orchids. Background is tree fern fiber, attached using black aquarium silicone. Branches are attached using silicone, egg crate, and great stuff. Great stuff is carved, then painted...

    I want to try my hand in growing some orchids in my soon to be cinnamon frog paludarium, so how wet is it you ask? well its pretty wet but the background stays dry and doesn't wick water to the outside surface. But in the morning the front of the tank is so covered in condensation that you cant...

    I saw some orchids while I was shopping for plants last night that were very small and very beautiful. I didn't buy any because I have heard orchid care is really hard. Also, the tag on the plant said something like "I need 1 ice cube a week" so I thought maybe they couldn't handle a humid...

    Good Morning Everyone, I was fairly active on the forum a little over a year ago when researching how to build a vivarium for my two P. terribilis. Everyone was very helpful and the project turned out well. I wanted to share how the enclosure looks after 18 months of plant growth! Thanks...

    Hey all, I have done vivariums and aquariums on and off my whole life. I also grow orchids as here in San Francisco I can grow many outdoors and I have a greenhouse too. I am working towards building indoor vivaria with lots of automation and create environments I can control and manipulate...

    Hello again, friends! The vivarium is COMPLETE! Decided to make this a separate thread from my old one since this is the final product (for now). I named it "Visions of a Cloud Forest" because every single plant comes from South America, with emphasis on those that come from the cloud forests...

    This is my first time making my own tanks from scratch, it took many sliced fingers and made my living room a mess for a couple days, but it was well worth it. I siliconed egg crate to the back wall for extra support as the hardscape was going to be heavy. I then put the pieces of wood...

    Hi there. I'm researching the idea of combining my love of orchids into a paludarium with as many different aquatic and herp species as I can. I transformed my son's Bearded Dragon tank into a bioactive and now I am hooked. Is it possible to combine dart frogs with small arboreal geckos, newt...

    Just thought I would post a thread about the success I am having with the bromeliads I received about 2 months ago. Some of you know we have a project going on called The Rainforest Exhibit. we are building a large indoor rainforest vivarium in the largest Amphibious Aquarium ever made by...

    Hey everyone. I've recently gotten back into plants (especially orchids) pretty hard and I've taken notice that a large divide in keeping plants is the temperature variance (or at least the day to night variance). There are so many ferns, orchids, etc that really don't excel in our...

    After Christmas I have been able to order some more plants. This time from Andy's Orchids. Andy is very helpful and spent a lot of time with me on the phone while I put together a package of plants, and I was not at all disappointed when they arrived. Though on the pricey side, the delivery is...

    I got this Barbosella orchid maybe a month ago from a great vendor on ebay and over time the leaves have turned more and more purpleish and look not so great. From what I've read, the purpling of leaves is a sign of too much light and/or dehydration, so I reconfigured the lighting in my tank...
