Hi! Thank you! No, LOL. That was just how I was bending my arm to get the photo. Below is a photo of its actual orientation. https://i.imgur.com/sl8uExY.jpg?1

And I guess I can show off the entire tank. A repurposed 35 gal hexagonal fish tank. Its at a little over 6 months old now. its got 4 orchids:

1 Platystele umbellata
1 Dracula nycterina (in spike will post bloom pic)
2 Dracula lotax

Its not a biotope tank but just my conceptualization of an Andean cloud forest.
