I get it from last two year IKEA sale for RM59/49 to put in storeroom. Now clear out one rack for my lack of light environment.

With this move... I just realized that my Buzii was dead. http://s4.images.proboards.com/embarassed.gif

Previously I just depend on windowsilk light, and just change to use Philip Compact Fluorescent twist 18 Watt Cool daylight as I refer to most of the terrarium design. This suitable for my rack.

cactustts,
I was make a big SHOCK to my VFT with leaf cut and plant cut. Then lack of light at windowsilk. Now just build up this chamber to save them. So far I can see VFT leaf and trap grow well if compare to early.

Maybe add another 3 more of that Philip Compact Florencent twist 18 watt coll daylight and change tthe wattage to 40watt each. Just a suggestion. http://s4.images.proboards.com/smiley.gif

Other than that I love the wooden shelf. Link to Post - Back to Top http://s4.images.proboards.com/ip.gif LoggedMy Wantlistericsow

David, thanks for your advise. I will increase the light when I found is needed. I am kind of people like to experience and improve it. Actually I am trying CFL first to better understanding how is it heat and light coverage.

I arrange Drosera and VFT under the lamp for strongest light. And Nepenthe on side with partially light and shadow.

At first i built 2 downlight just like yours. But it's not very bright in my opinion. So, after 2 days, i DIY another 3* 4f FL . Haha, cost me some fortune, since i don't have any income. But it's worth seeing them grow from seeds. I try to post some photos after exams. Wanted to post very long time ago. But didn't have the time and camera to do so. Hehe.

I would suggest you to use PLL light, small (compared to FL) yet bright enough for plants, I use that for my planted tank, very effective yet economical. You will have to use a reflector to double up the light, I saw some overseas people used that with very impressive result especially for sundews and VFTs.

Another heat tank may get 38C when light on.

I am not sure about it. For those CPs having problem grow in my light chamber like vft and nep. I tried to put them in this heat tank. So far, vft showing reddish and nep produced pitchers.
