Hey guys,
I just read this article in the stickies section and it got me wondering. Do I have a vivarium or a paludarium? Not that it really matters but I an just curious.
 
Looks awesome razz! Keep the updates coming!
 
Thanks! I still need some sand and orchid bark for my mix but everying that is made for orchids seems to have perlite or ferts in it already. Does anyone know where I can get some plain old orchid (fur) bark?
 
The silicone has dried and the water half is filled! Now to wait a day or so and hope it doesn't leak!
 
Ya, I put a ton more silicone on after the divider was in place.

I am afraid to go check on it for fear that right as I walk in the divider is going to fall!!!!!
 
I've found that you generally have to go to a garden center to find orchid bark without ferts in it. Or you can order it online. Lowes and home depot seem to only carry the miracle grow stuff.
 
Alright that's what I assumed I just haven't been able to get to a garden center....... Too bad the one down on the corner just closed.


So now I have a problem that never once crossed my mind until now........

I don't have a stand....... I had the tank on an antique chest but the tank always hung off the ends about 2 inches on either side so I have to figure something out. I think I'll just build one since I haven't been able to find anything on craigslist.
