terrarium

Hey guys, sorry I've been away for so long. Hope to be more active again soon. :/ I'm setting up a second terrarium (knew it was going to happen eventually), as I started to re-pot some of my seedlings a couple days ago and realized I was going to end up with WAY more pots than I could handle...

ive been interested in sarracenia for a while and have had outdoor plants for a few years now, but am starting up an indoor setup mostly for growing from seed. what do you guys think of it so far? i cant decide if i should keep the celophane on or not. its got 2 GE plant and aquarium bulbs, 2...

I have a T5 fixture that holds 4 bulbs I am going to sit on my 20 gallon long terrarium I made. The light has legs so it sits a little above the tank. Can anyone tell me how far away they grow pings under T5's? How far should my light be from my pings. Also, where and what kind of bulbs do...

Can anyone suggest a good light for growing pings indoors? I want to set up a terrarium in a 10 gallon tank. Thanks!

So my dad has aquired a variety of different acryllic containers from work, amogn with are some 1 1/3 gallon cubes. Here's something I'm picture and would like osme input: A 2x2 arrangement of these cubes together, but with each cube looking like a different biome. My first thoughts are one...

Thought I'd share. I got this from Lowe's over the winter on sale and stuck it in a terrarium until I could get it in the bog. I saw this today. I know I've heard of this happening before, I was wondering how uncommon it is though? And if anyone has any experience with separating the traps...

While upgrading my petiolaris terrarium I was confronted with the question of what was I going to do for lighting? This is what I came up with. The components were mostly purchased from Home Depot - egg crate grating, E27 (screw-in type) sockets and standard lamp cord and a plug. In addition the...

So my terrarium and outdoor pots look kind of bland, and I've always found orchids interesting. I noticed that they seem to have similar nutrient and soil requirements to CPs, so I was thinking of growing a few with CPs. I was thinking of a crane orchid for venus flytraps and sarracenia, and...

Hello Office Workers! I was recently asked to find a showy Nepenthes that reliably produces pitchers in a somewhat sunny office environment. The requestee has no real experience with carnivorous plants and would prefer not to have a terrarium. Supplemental light is a possibility, but the main...

Hi everyone. Im new to these forums. Im Dante from Argentina. I have a small terrarium for my new Nepenthes, but the new leaves are growing in spirals, with oddly shapes and never finish to grow. They have close to 29ºc and 80% or more of humidity. Any ideas of what could be happening?

1) Opening bid amount $2 2) Item description - We will be tearing down this terrarium and dividing up all the plants, half will stay here and half will go out as a part of this auction. Most plants are un-ided species. I know there are the following in there: Anubias nana var. 'Petite'...

Recently I've been looking through some photo of people's carnivorous plants and wondered the following: would a mesh pond basket be better for nepenthes than a regular one because of the air circulation ? In my terrarium, I used the regular square pots that the plants came in and they do just...

Hi I have a mini greenhouse terrarium about 4 square inches and 3 to 4 inches tall. There is no ventilation when I put the top on. And it does not drain. What can I grow in this can anyone help me with some recommendations? Thanks!

Hi all, I had this Drosera pop up in one of my pots so I replanted it into a single pot and got it growing in my Terrarium as it did not like the heat outside for some reason (died back to the root). The Drosera did not grow from seed, I think rather from roots already in the pot as it grew...

Well I am a little embarrassed that it has taken me this long to replant the CP's of this planter... but what a mess it was under the moss... Here is what it looked like a couple of days after I got it.. So this is what it looked like after I removed the plants... It started growing...

I'm not very familiar with Dionea, since I'm used to just growing Drosera. Got this tiny group of Akai Ryu vfts in the mail just over a week ago, and I've had it in the window, just going with the natural cycle of the sun for its Winter dormancy. The temperature in this terrarium has been...

SIDESHOW TURTLES I love the unusual, and a couple of years ago I bought a group of strange hatchling Red Eared Sliders. They are now 2 years and 3 months old (and over 4 inches). They are natural deformities that I’ve raised up past the sensitive stage. Now they are available to you! They...

as you can see, it's put out two beautiful pitchers. But recently the two newest growth point has been slow to develop. The first picture was taken on 1/18 and the other pictures was just taken right now 2/9. I am not sure how long it took for the last two pitches to develop but I don't...

My concentric diamond back terrapin died today. D: so i'm trying to figure out best plants to go with, whatever works in a terrarium. I know I miss my CP's, so someone suggest what to house with them and i'll build it. :-O

This post is a testament to my technological ignorance. Attaching a photo to a pm is beyond me, so I post these for jcal's perusal. Clockwise from upper left: first two pics are Masdevallia 'Fuschia Dawn Rolf', unidentified Tillandsia, Ornithophora radicans. Although potted in the pics I will...
