My new Terrarium!!
You Guy's are definitely a bad influence! After seeing everyone's setups and acquiring a new Ghost orchid from Andy's at the WOC. I have setup a terrarium of my own. The tank is 25 inches tall 20 inches wide and 11 inches deep. I put river rock on bottom with water just below the top of the rock.
Plants inside are:
Polyrrhiz lindenii
C. Tetramicra
Sigmatostalix eliae
Dendrobium aggregatm b. jenkensii
Angraecum didieri
Dendrobium smillieae
Epidendrum nocturnum
resurrection fern on pop ash bark

Fantastic Dave! Welcome to the "dark side"  When are you getting your second tank? This one is beautiful, by the way.

Nice work Dave. It looks real good! When you start working on terraiums/vivariums/paludariums etc.. suddenly, every display case, every cabinet, every refrigerator, spare room becomes a potential enclosure. All you need is time and lots of money.

Ain't that the truth! And when my wife goes to Bed Bath and Beyond, there's me checking every container for if it will be useful for orchids
