Ahh, and let us not forget the ever cool Paludarium, where one grows terrestrial plants and animals in the same enclosure where you grow aquatic plants and animals.

I had to because I recently got very interested in converting my 55 gallon Viv into true Paladuarium.

thank you for your suggestions. I will have to post my orchidarium photo. It's been set up about 2 months or so, no flowering as yet, but alot of new growth. Everything seems good, but the humidity tends to fluctuate on the lower side.
