Many species of sundews open their flowers for just a couple hours at a time. You may just be having bad timing :P

All gorgeous but holy smokes, what is up with that aristo?

I'd love to take you up on this :D

I have to echo everything that JB said. If you can at all move stuff around and go for a size that will accept 4' units, you will save money and have more space. 4' high bay t5's run me about $90 for a 4 bulb and $150 for a 6 bulb. By contrast, the cheapest 2' I can find is 100$. The bulbs are...

Happy to report the basal growth is inflating pitchers. It seems to be responding well to my grow rack redux (update to that thread coming shortly). Thanks again everyone!

Gratz! Which species? If you happen to have somehow gotten your hands on African Giant Millipedes (which shot up in price after exportation was banned), go for a 10 gallon. If you are keeping one of the smaller "giants", a 5 gallon is fine. Post pics! - Cthulhu beat me to it -

Great work Brie!
