Other L/L neps that you can probably try is N. gracilis and N. distallatoria, I suggested these because it can tolerate direct sunlight and will produce basals carpet like N. ampullaria. N. ampullaria can still grow in high light level but the coloration of the pitcher might get bleached out unless you grow those green amps.

Thanks for the advice. Guess I can easily reduce the light. But it is hard to spread the light if I reduce. 1 4ft casing comes with 2X55W. I guess an alternative is using old bulbs, with lower intensity. Meaning, I don't have to change as often as well. Will adjust during the growing period.
Will look up gracilis and distallatoria pictures. Thanks for the advice.
What about the main larger plant to replace the fern/weed. I was thinking about Veitchii, which is one of my favourite plant. Something that is compact growing. Something that don't grow too tall. Something showy, as it will be the main attraction.
