Heli's picture thread

I used a Hunter model room humidifier but I recommend a Vicks model, cheaper and works better. The terrarium i got just came with a screen. I use tap water for my humidfiers since i have good water.

 

[Api]

So the terrarium side had a screen? lol I'm trying to replicate your exact specs.

 

[Heli]

Yeah it has a screen. http://www.exo-terra.com/en/products/natural_terrarium_small.php

 

[Api]

Okay thanks.

 

[Api]

Wait that thing is 70 bucks! That's a lot of dough.

 

[Heli]

Yeah wasnt cheap, I got it a really long time ago and have used it for multiple hobbies, really high quality.

 

[Api]

Do you still have yours?

 

[Wire Man]

70 bucks is cheap for an exo-terra!

 

[Api]

Not cheap for me lol Hopefully grandparents will donate $100 to the cause for Christmas

Plants are looking really nice, Luca. Are you seeing a lot of improvements with the new grow tent?

 

[Heli]

No doubt about it.. everything is growing a lot better.. Almost everything is putting out pitchers and a lot of them are increasing in size.

 

[Exo]

oh wow, everything looks great! And I still can't get over how huge that robcantlyii is. Very nice!

 

[pebes]

[pebes]

nice update, your plants look awesome. is that predator basal slow as molasses?

 

[Heli]

Yup it is quite slow.

 

[Keith]

Lookin good Luca! Hooray for grow tents. Doing anything special for the regia? It looks real good. I have the tiniest little regia ever from a recent trade. It has 3 teensy little 1/4" leaves. Any advice is appreciated.

 

[Heli]

Short, I just keep it cool and the humidity high.
