cute lil bugger!
I like the faux rock pot you have the paph in (2nd tank pic right hand side) -- did you make that or buy it (and if the latter, from where?)?

Hi,
I got that planter from Black Jungle, an Orchid Board sponsor. But I got them many years ago, and am not sure if they still sell them. I assume they would be quite easy to replicate with some black handy foam.

Nice shots mate. Do you have an update on the look of your viv? I’ve just set a new viv up in my classroom, and I’m debating the purchase of a few of these guys.
Cheers,
Chris

Hey Grassy!
I don't have a picture update, but I do have news. The moss died back, though its still there, brown. But some parts are greening up again. The Cryptocorynes I planted in there are growing hard recently, and C. pontederifolia is blooming once a month. Also I have the liverwort Conocephalum conicum growing in multiple places. All in all, a good growth period.

Congrats on the blooming crypts. That's quite an accomplishment! Lets see some pictures! How many toads do you have in there now?
Cheers,
Chris

It's been a while since I've even seen or heard of these.
They're beautiful.

I have eight now, I just recently bought 5 to add to the original three. I'm really going to try and breed these.
Here are Cryptocoryne cordata and C. pontederifolia
