How do you grow YOUR Heliamphora!?

[Devon]

Hey everyone, I hope this doesn't bother swords that I copied him kinda with his topic on dews... hehe, anway, I just got a new heli and I'm not sure I can keep it alive... So I would like to see hoe you grow yours just to give me an idea of how they are grown. I already know how they should be grown (low temperatures, airy, wet soil, lots of light, etc.) but I want to see YOUR methods. I would love pics please. Mine right now is in a plastic ziploc bag and in a fairly tall andwidepot and is approx 4 inches away from 32 watt flourescent light tubes. T8 or something... The soil mix is 60% perlite and 40% peat. It is a heliamphora minor auyantepui. PICTURES WOULD BE GREAT!
Thanks,

Devon
