Dang Giga! Absolutely stunning.

 

I really like the addition of ferns. Any plans for mosses or something from the floral array (orchid, etc.)?

All those fist plant pictured are orchids about 10 orchids in there right now. Google one of them, and u'll see the flowers of each. Moss will naturally make it's way in there.

 

Oh man. This is seriously all quite over my head but this really does look really awesome.

 

Thanks!

Never be ashamed of an awkward vivarium boner bro.

 

Giga, this is just sick. Between this and your mangrove tank I'm just super impressed. Respect.

I erring love orchids they are so unique and colourful. Very fragrant to ... Well some of them. If only you could genetically engineer a tree to blossom orchids, I'd bonsai the crap outta that.

I don't know if minis are your thing, but I've had amazing success with Gastrochilus japonica. And they look pretty nice for a mini;

I'm more of a micro kind of guy but I like minis too, I'll have to see if I can find that one.

Think the frogs will have trouble going back and forth from the drop, or they will not hangout down there as often?
