My orchidarium project
 
Hi
I am planning to setup an orchidarium with a LxBxH 24x9x12 inches glass aquarium. I have the orchids already at home hanging above my kitchen sink.

I have a hygrometer too and a dremel tool :D to make a nice top closure for the setup using wood plank lined with water resistant sheet. Ordered the computer fan...
The orchids I am planning to put into the setup are
Angraecum leonis sp.
Chiloschista parishii sp.
Chiloschista vridiflava sp.
Dendrobium unicum
Neofinetia falcata
Dendrobium lindleyi
Dendrobium chrysotoxum
Dendrobium jenkinsii
Dendrobium thyrxiflorum
Bulbophyllum leopardium

Now - to the question? Will my above said orchid be fine in a terrarium like setting? Anything else I am missing?
How do I fertilize these little ones inside the setup?
Thanks for all your help

Did you ever complete this project? I am getting started on a new Orchidarium and would love to see pictures.
