do the brown leafs give you issues with decomposition all the time and make you have to clean it out a lot? opps never mind i see you changed it up again lol

The brown leaves you are referring to is leaf litter. It's beneficial to dart frogs and other tropical or semi-tropical frog enclosures because it provides shelter and habitat and food for microfauna. The microfauna in returns provides food for the frogs, especially froglets and keep the tank "clean".

Also, the decomposition of those leaves helps to enrich the soil, thereby fertilizing the plants

Yea I know, I probably could have gotten 1 really great fixture for that amount but I started with two and added the extra fixtures over a couple of months. I'm satisfied now.

How has your plant growth responded to the LEDs? I'm thinking of getting some of the satellite + for my 36" exo-terra

Pretty well, but I sold the Satellites and going with another LED solution.

[Riptide]

What are you going to use instead?
