Default Terrarium or Orchids

I am thinking of making a terrarium for my Intermediate to warm growing miniture orchids. My thoughts is to buy a 24" x 18" x 24" Exo Terra Terrarium, install a 3" PC fan, and Mist King Deluxe misting system with deluxe nozzles with a reservoir. Would this be enough? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Please check out my article on building a Wardian case (Orchidarium) http://www.orchidboard.com/Setting-u...om-Orchidarium I prefer doing custom "tanks" as apposed to commercial, primarily due to cost, but also because one can change the specs to suit. I have two fans (3") one running 24/7 inside tank and one through-wall running only 3 hours at night to change the air and dry things a bit. I run a Mist King Deluxe system (3 nozzles) and think it's the absolutely best system around. Never a problem. I only run RO water thru it. Any other questions, give a hollar (feel free to PM also.)

Thanks Ross. I have read through your article along with other many times. Love everyone's set up. With space limited and a little tight on $$$, so needs to improvise. I am glad we have someone like you out ther to help. Thanks.
