I have almost completed my first viv.
All it needs is a rain system and orchids, either of which i am open for suggestion. So far the lower half holds at 95% humidity with a temp. of 87 F.
and the upper is 50-60% humidity with a temp. of 80 F.
Hoping this will hose my Azures darts on the bottom and a couple of chahoua geckos, maybe some shrimp or fish. Need some suggestions for small water plants too.
The viv looks great, WindWalker- a hell of a first, that's for sure.
Did you have any orchid species you were looking at yet? You've got a good range in humidity, so you have a lot to choose from. What are you using for lighting? That might determine what you're able to keep.

Thinking of a mini epaphylial (i think thats the spelling) orchids. there is a lot of cork and tree fern panel to stick'em too. and i can add sticks and such. Fragrent would be nice as the misses has stated she would like that. And lighting can change although i have a very versitle set of lights to work with and some on the shelf. Spots also can be added to the equation.
what's that white stuff??? is it tillandsia??? if so... I want some!!! it looks crazy! if its not then never mind...

the white stuff is "old man's beard" lichen from blackjungle.com
one or two bags is enough I swear. ordered 5 thinking from their pic. that is was a lil' bit of lichen but its not. This viv has about 6-7 type of lichen at that, the lighting in the pictures does not do it justice. I selected some real sweet chunks of corkbark that where loaded with lichen.
live and learn hehe
