This little guy grows cool/cold (80F max days, but usually around 70F, down as low as 40F at night, but typically low 50s this time of year), bright light for a pleuro (about 1100fc), great water (90% distilled, 10% rain, avg 20ppm dissolved solids), with a 5-1-1 fertilizer application at full strength 2x monthly. The plant is mounted, sits about 6" from a fan that runs 24/7 in one of my vivs; 80% avg humidity, with automated misting every 2.5 hours during lights on for 1.5 minutes per go. It will grow with nights a tad warmer, but it is a cool grower from elevation in nature I believe. Sorry to ramble, if you need further details, please let me know.
