    you made the right choice in starting with less plants. as brian said, many people forget that they are buying young plants and they will grow. especially ferns. some can grow monstrous, but can be controlled with some regular pruning. remember that red eyes live high in the trees, so plan your plantings around that. if you want a nice, sturdy plant for the ground that a lot of people over look, pick up a diffenbachia. it will grow to be a giant, but with regular pruning, it can be controlled. in a tree frog environment, especially a species such as a red eye, the ground layer is for you. the aerial space is for the frogs. at least that is the way i always look at it. just like brian said, some nice pothos or any of the climbing philodendrons will work wonderfully. remember as far as the philos. go, there are terrestrial species and well as vine species. also keep in mind that with heavy planting in the upper portions of the enclosure, your ground plants need to be shade loving plants. light loving plants will grow, but very slowly.

    Hey guys! Just got the plants in and the tank is pretty much finished, turns out I need a bit more ABG mix, but that's already on the way. I think I have enough climbing material for the Red eyes, although I'm open to suggestion to as how I could maybe put more in there. Thanks to all you guys for all your help so far! I did have a question or two though. Since I'm getting two red eyes, should I get two feeding bowls so as to reduce the chances of fighting over food? Also for the water bowl, it should be as shallow as possible correct?
