I don't have a green thumb either, but so far my plants are doing awesome. I guess the secret to my success is light and high humidity. I have a piece of plate glass that covers most of the tank's top. I block the opening that that the glass does not cover with paper towels to prevent fruit fly escape and allow some ventilation. Humidity is between 80 & 90%. My $3 bromeliads that I bought on whim have out grown the tank and are flowering. My oak-leaf ficus is beginning to spread all over the place and various ferns have popped up out of nowhere. I am very proud of this little tank (5 gallon) and I wish I had the room for more just like it, only bigger so I can put in more darts.
