So, you said there is gravel at the bottom. What kind is it? And what is the rest of the media? And what are the temps in the terarrium?

Looks like a great setup Keep us updated.

ps - congrats on the nep seeds. and how is your TC going?

Thanks! The gravel is just the coated aquarium stuff, nothing special. I wish I had a better answer for the media, but I put it together based on feel rather than percentages. If I had to guess, I would say ~ 60% peat, 30% perlite, 10% low pH sand.

Still trying to figure that one out. The nep is potted, so I can remove that easily and put the whole tank into dormancy- or I may transplant them closer to winter time. I want to put together a bigger terrarium still, so I haven't quite decided what my plan will be.

u should try shortening the light cycle

Wow that is a freaking awesome setup u have there!!! I never liked terarriums but I really like it setup!!!

Wow! Great work! Love your plants! Keep it up
