Default OK, New Orchidarium

OK, there have been many requests for pics of the new "monster" orchidardium that Paul at Firstclassaquatics.com built for me so here is the first picture off the line.



As you can see, there is soooo much room for new guys

Everything is running fine so far (humidity and temps).

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Thanks,
Kevin

Dorothy, there is no need for a heater with most orchidariums. Actually most folks have a surplus of heat from the room temperature and the lights. I am working on an article describing the details of how I got where I am now.
