Well Howdy ;-)


I was a planted freshwater guy for a long time, but have switched recently to Dendrobates ie. Poison Dart Frogs.

In doing so I created a monster tank which has my freshwater planted area, my frog area, and since I needed plants...... Plants as well as Orchids



I got a few from people I met at the local Botanical gardens and from a few friends.

Untill yesterday I did not consider myself a orchid person untill lowes was liquidating some plants and what I saw was a rack of orchids for $1/ea...


Needless to say I bought 15 of them and now need to learn about caring for them.

Lots of Vanda's Cattelya's and a few oncidium, B. Nodosa, eplicattelya.


First here is a link to my tank before the orchids went in
