Reptile tank Terrarium
 

I posted this in sister board as well...
I'm really new to this,
Would it be possible to an upright reptile tank for a terrarium? It has 2 screen doors on each side which I think might be handy for access. I'm guessing I would have to replace the screen w/Plexiglas. This would be used to grow Orchids.

Don't see why not. All you need is a way to hold humidity and lots of light. You can hand spray for a while until you want to go automated and set up a misting system. I used an old aquarium for a while until I got my big orchidarium. http://www.orchidboard.com/community...um_After01.jpg

Hi Tia :waving

Take a look through the threads in this forum (Terrarium Gardening) for some great ideas. The fokks around here have come up with some fantastic grow tanks! :nod:

Hi lilricky,
sure you can. I'm using an old fish tank that i've flipped into an upright position. i have the opening on the side.
The lower part is sealed with plastic and the upper part has a sheet of plexi which is attached with magnets.
