Hello guys!
I have a terrarium filled with all sorts of carnivorous plants, and I wonder if it is okay to put dead leaves scatterd around the peat moss for decoration, just a little. Will it start to rott or grow mold?

Depends on your humidity and airflow. If you have high humidity and low airflow, then almost a definite chance of rot and molding, if you use a PC fan, you make be able to keep down humidity and have airflow high enough so that molding is very little. Good luck
