Ken,
Yes it is an aquarium. Got it from Pet Safari in Ikano some time back.

malowie,

PLL lights are a type of lightings used by planted tanks enthusiasts to grow their water plants. It's 2 long tube connected together at the end. Whether it uses a lot of electricity or not depends on the wattage of the bulb or how many you use.

Yes, I grow my cephs and heliam under those lights too.

Can et from aquarium shops. If you want cheaper, can look for it at Jalan Pasar. Or if just for convenience sake, you can get it from Pet Safari at Ikano but it's more pricy there. Maybe you can check with the planted tanks enthusiasts who are here as well. They will know where to et the best deal.

Very nice, I have several cermaic pots with mini Drosera landscape. Nothing with such unusual species. Utrics make great 'killer lawn'.
I have got one with a seed grown sarra in it. I have post a photo of it.

Hi Ken. Sorry, could you rephrase your sentence. I don't quite get what you are trying to say. Thanks.

Hi Khoas,

Lets just hope the plants in my mini landscape grows well and survive. Yes, I remember your thread here. I especially like the third picture. So natural. I repost below. Maybe I should have added more rocks in my pot. Makes it look more rugged and natural. Now that you've mentioned it, I realised that the green stuff on the media is actually utrics. I thought it was moss earlier.

Can show us he rest of your mini landscape Drosera garden please. Thanks. Ok, below is your mini garden that I like.

Ken
That's why I said earlier that it is a little pricy but it is more convenient for me compared to the other source. There are cheaper aquarium available. Yours might be more expensive because of its quality and perhaps it also does not have a joint between the glass just like mine. It is more difficult o make that way.
