I have a Catt in lecca, what's the low down on it? I know Swamper mentioned it to me as well, and I never really knew what exactly the benefits were.

I think it's meant to be good because you get a lot of air in lecca (I'm not thinking of S/H, just lecca as a standard medium). Catt roots like to have plenty of air so it's meant to be good for them.

That makes me what to broaden my project! Maybe mix that in as well. It would make sense I think.

it doesnt look to bad health wise in the pics!

[marydaniellesantos]

I know, I was quite pleased, Rosie was telling me that hers didn't fare too well. But my roots are as healthy as ever! I'm thinking of using it on another hybrid I just recieved since the roots on that one were very poor.

i think i might try it! or maybe lava rock. wheni have a phal that isnt doing so great, i mount it. and they rebound great!

by the way, my big wally world phal mount, the roots are attaching! and getting into the bark!

[marydaniellesantos]

What do you use to mount? I'm kind of scared to mount a Phal since they can get quite large... lol.

i used a terrarium background from the pet store. and driftwood, and a friend gave me some bark stuff and cedar planks

[marydaniellesantos]

Sounds like it looks nice.
