Default Re: Growing Heliamphoras in Malaysia

Thanks for the pics, Choong. The tank looks pretty wet there. I have one exoterra terrarium with a modified glass cover on top, and slightly smaller than the dimension of your growtank. I suppose the heliam I'm to get from you will do fine in there. Do you still operate the humidifier in this tank? As I do not have a humidifer and the tank is placed in my bedroom which receives a temp of 20-25 C at night (daytime is without aircon so following normal room temp assuming that it stays below 30 C). I hope they are not too finicky about humidity. May I ask if by putting water trays and having the florescent lights at close range will help increase the evaporation rate and hence increase humidity? Do you think that will be effective in the long run? TIA.
