Hello All,
Here are a couple of shots of my current builds; the tank on the top has been up and running for about a year now; the one on the bottom is a work in progress; I'm in the midst of a third build and needed somewhere to keep everybody happy in the interim. All my builds are repurposed truvu acrylic aquariums (gotta love craigslist!); I grow under LED lighting, with automated misting via a mistking system. Circulation is provided in the tanks by high CFM CPU fans (I like the Scythe line); I fertilize 2-3x per month with a hand-held sprayer. Enjoy the pics, more to come as I progress with the "big" build.

Mistking
Looking for a misting system? Look no further. Automated misting systems from MistKing are used by multitude of plant enthusiasts and are perfect for Orchids. Systems feature run dry pumps, ZipDrip valve, adjustable black nozzles, per second control! Automatically mist one growing shelf or a greenhouse full of Orchids.
It looks like you have a number of masdevallias. Is the blooming one Copper Angel? What temperature do you keep them at?
I grow mostly Masdevallia & Dracula in my terrariums; the one that is in bloom is Masd. hirtzii. Copper Angel has blooms that are a bit flatter/less tube-like. As for temps, my growing area gets down into the mid 40's from about mid December to mid March; the rest of the year it runs a bit warmer at night; daytime temps are usually 55 (fall/winter) to 70 (spring/summer)--but that's Oregon for you...
