Air plant experience??

Tillandsias won't do well in most vivariums, they're too humid and can't dry out enough (most species are from Mexico). If you want something mounted, you could try some of the smaller species of Hoya, curtsii is awesome as is serpens, or some Dischidias. Also, a lot of the smaller Neoregelias are a good choice, some of the ones in the 3"-5" range are 'Chiquita Linda', lilliputiana, dungsiana, 'Night Spot', 'Small Fry', and a lot of the ampullacea cultivars. For ground covering Peperomias, prostrata is a common choice, emarginella can also work well, but the leaves are super tiny and it can take awhile to get established. Pilea glauca, otherwise known as blue baby tears, can be used as a ground covering as well. For vining Pep's, serpens is common for medium to large sized vines, and hoffmannii and pecuniifolia are good smaller ones.

I find that tillandsia can pose a threat to arboreal frogs. the only available ones in my area are spikey so I mount them high on bamboo sticks. I have a pacman so he will never be able to reach them.

Tillandsias are awesome and work great in a lot of terrariums, provided that they aren't too dry. I've been using a few different species in two different tanks (for L. lugubris, so no frogs, but they don't need more humidity than a L. caerulea) with great success. They only "problem" would be that most species that are commonly available are probably not tough enough to withstand a adult L. caerulea, but they're still make the enclosure look great (and help some with a more stable humidity).

WOW! Thanks - a wealth of useful info
