Turtle in Texas

[Turtle]

Allow myself to indtroduce...myself.
I live in Arlington, TX, USA with my wife and daughter. My interest in orchids is as young as my experience with them. I tend to lurk on forums, reading past threds for information, and ocassionally pasting up a topic or comment.

My wife and I are both working professionals. Our daughter is almost 1.5 years old.

I'm planning to make a couple of terrariums. I used to keep some freshwater fish, and for months I have had two empty tanks in my living room collecting dust and dirty looks from my wife. One is a nice 35gal hexagon tank, and I thought it might make a nice display terrarium for an blooming orchid. The other is a 48gal tall display tank that I will keep in my office for a wider variety of plants. (Terrariums are also ideal because we have a couple of cats that love to chew on unattended foliage.)

I'll start a thread in another topic regarding my plans for the tanks. Thanks to the admins for a great site, and I look forward to sharing with you all.
