Default New haul from Andy's

My new haul of minis should be here tomorrow. I ordered new plants for the orchidarium selecting primarily low light/high moisture candidates. Here's what I ordered:

Aerangis fastuosa
Aerangis hyaloides
Amesiella (Angraecum) monticola
Ascocentrum (Dyakia) hendersonianium
Cischweinfia horichii
Dendrobium aberrans (another to join the 2 I already have)
Dracula lotax
Gastrochilus calceolaris
Pleurothallis tribuloides
Tuberolabium (Saccolabium) kotoense

None of these needs more than 1000-1500 foot-candles and every one needs or tolerates high amounts of moisture and humidity.

Good luck with your Dyakia. I have two new ones and hopefully they won't die on me.

What was the problem? My conditions seem to fit this guy to a "T". Very wet and warm I can provide. In fact I have the most problem with those that need to dry out. As I recall, you hand mist your vivariums?

No problems yet. Just wishing you luck in general. I do hand mist. I am keeping one in a much warmer environment than the other. We'll see which one is happier in the end.

Just a thought - doesn't hand misting get old? I would think a nice system from Mist King would be better

It does, it gets really old. But there is no way for me to incorporate a misting system in some of my tanks.
