I think I'll try that also...Doesnt the sphagnum always die on you?? Ive never been able to keep it alive, or revive it from a dry bag. Maybe I am in need of a Mister.

Also, I'll post the picture of it in a few minutes after photobucketing...But for the broms you have mounted what did you do? I realize they do not need roots in soil, but does it hurt to be placed on a land area with soil? The brom I have has a huge base and it would be difficult placing it into the foam.

From my understanding they can rot like that. I got a large one thats going to have to deal with it though. Most of them I just stick the stolon into the background. I used the dry brick of spagnum. I noticed in my exo its coming back to life.

I'll try not to hyjack your thread any further...But this is what I'm working with. It came potted in very coarse dark rocks. It is large, I paid an arm and a leg for it, and I'm hoping it becomes the main focal point in the viv. I think I'll keep as many of the rocks as possible, then just use an expanded brick of substrate to fill the gaps.

Hey D3monic,

Would you be interested in a Brand new, never used Zoo-Med 18x18x24" Tank?
If so let me know... I tried to send you a PM but I don't think it went through.
