Not that I've found. I really want to try some but haven't taken the plunge yet.

It's available from Dart Frog in the UK here: EpiWeb - A Better Xaxim! and supposedly they'll ship to the US.

Cheers.

How do you access the plants Magnus? Is there a door or is it via the top?

Such an amazing setup. I know its only been a month, but is it still doing well? Any things you would change or is there anything that is new that is working really well?

The front is open. I use a white styrofoam board to cover it when I not looking at the plants.

Ther is some small design things I would have done a little different but nothing big. It works as it should and I do not need to do any rebuilding. The only thing I plan to do is to rebuild the air circulation in the top as it now has a turned of f peltier element that could not cool the cabinet.
The moss is exploding and I have had to prune it as it covered some small seedlings. There is some plants that do not like the "high" temperature and some that does not like the wet condition in the dripwall. I would like to have a cooled cabinet but this one works soo good that I will keap it as it is. If I build a cooled cabinet it will be a new design.

What a great idea! The moss is going to look beautiful. Where we are there are huge clumps vivid green mosses, making the forest look green and furry. It is especially bright and vigorous in the winter. I love it.

Looks like you need a few more orchids!

[Vanda lover]

I think so too! There is an orchid show next month, and I think I'll get a phychopsis. I hear they bloom a long time. I'm also tempted by a darwinara. The Burr. Nelly Isler sound great too, although I'm not sure if we can handle the fragrance. Maybe I need a few hundred more. We need a bigger house.

Yes, the cabinet is somewhat empty. But I go slow as I did not know what conditions I ended up with and it has been winter. Not possibly to order orchids as shipment from Europe will freeze!
