dkk08's New Vivarium

[dkk08]

Treebark type of background, you can find them at NA(Thomson, Opposite Thomson Medical) ..What type of treebark ..corkbark ?
Any idea what the sizes they carry for the background and how much?

definitely not corkbark, they really strip them off some trees, size wise is 24in by 18in if I'm not wrong, price wise depending on weight

Some updates... added a new Nepenthes, N.Inda (ventricosa x spathulata), a mature male (i think)

Hee N.Vikings are becoming greenish coz there's no sun in the tank

Trying to play around with the arrangement of the T5 lights to see if I can bring back the redish

Updates on the N.Amp "Bau Spotted"


A basal of the N.Inda (ventricosa x spathulata)


I definitely need more of these (Live Sphagnum Moss) trying to grow them under artificial lighting (T5 in the tank), under shade (under a log in the tank), out in the open at the living room with natural sunlight (about 3-4 hrs a day)


Another new pitcher for the N.Viking "Red(now greenish)"

Reviewing my first 2 Droseras, D.Paradoxa, growing pretty well, its dewing (I think)




D.Debyensis, not doing very well, hopefully it'll make it
