snow, gmdiaz, Ranchnanny thank you very mach!
One month ago I changed light. Now I have two fixtures, each one contain four T5 lamps by 54 watts. Totally 8 lamps of T5 57 watts. On this foto one of this fixture. And one fixture of two T4 28 watts lamp of yellow color, for nice coloration.
Light day change all year. In winter it is shot, in summer most long. Now light day is 13 hours.

Wow! Wow! Wow! And did I say, Wow?
Everything looks so lush and tropical. . .all so healthy. All your plants look like they're receiving the just right amount of light!
How do you lights compare to T5's? And how long do you keep them on a day?
I love everything! Thanks so much for taking the time to post pictures! Your orchidarium is really inspirational.
I want a big tank just like yours!

Looks super, Ahkenaten! Be a bit patient with Chia Lin. She may just be a little shy.

Fantastic set-up, Ahkenaten, and the blooms are just beautiful! Some day I'd love to have a tropical paradise as nice as yours. Keep posting your photos and information as I'm sure we're all interested with what you're doing.

Wow, very nice. That Phalaenopsis parishii is probably P. gibbosa.
