Default My new terrarium
I finally bought a terrarium a few weeks ago, and my orchids are already showing signs of better root growth.
The barbosella handroi has even put out a few buds!

I'm a little worried that the Neo isn't getting enought light though.

Great little terrarium! Did you put in 2 types of light in it? The color isn't the same.
I got a little tiny tank in the fall to convert for orchids, but never got around to getting a fan or putting in better lights.

Thanks! It's custom-made (for the guy I bought it from) from Akva Stabil. It's got two sliding glass doors, ventilation holes on the sides and a sealed part at the bottom for a water feature.

Yup, there's one warm and one cool CFL. I thought the fan would be the hard part, but there's a great computer parts & repair place in Vancouver called The Hackery, and they wired one up for me that not only can plug into the wall, but also has a knob I can turn to adjust the air speed (it was also cheap )

Where is this place in Vancouver? I have one fan that I rigged up, but having the option to change the speed would be great.

It's called The Hackery, and it's on 304 Victoria Drive.
