Default Terrarium for Helis

Err,does anyone know how to make a terrarium exactly?Maybe I should post it in the 'All about carnivorous plants'?Nevermind......I was thinking about a one plant terrarium which is for my heli

Found this is in the web: http://www.pitcherplant.com/terrarium.html What about this??I think it is pretty good.And another: http://www.cpukforum.com/forum/lofiv...php/t4166.html
This uses a humiditifier and pump it in.ANd the one lower uses ultrasonic mister.

You are right marvin. From the few lowland terrariums I built, no need. The humidity is about 60%-70% in the day and 90%-100% at night. Good for Nepenthes but not so good for Drosera. For Drosera you need to provide more air circulation or have a larger opening in the terrarium so that air can flow freely.
