    Gotta be creative there. Those little LEDs are made for rimless aquariums (think ADA), they have been the latest fad in planted tanks for a few years.

    Plants are growing well (except that moss that died! Has some new green growth again but going sloooow)

    I love this plant, I think my new favorite, growing quickly since I got it from Bill! Such pretty patterns on it.

    Can't remember the name of this one, but it's filling in the background a bit, working on training it to where I want it to go right now. Love the colors.

    Looking nice!! I wish my crappy phone camera could get a good shot of springtails like that.

    My phone could never do that LOL. I have the Canon Powershot SX510 HS. Not a very big or expensive camera, but I get a lot of decent pics out of it. Eventually, I'll get a DSLR with some good lenses.

    Any tips on the streptocarpella? It died within a week in my grey tree frog viv, and is barely hanging on in the red eye viv. In my defense, it was pretty sad looking already when I got it. I wasn't sure if I'd be able to revive it at all. You can see it all the way in the back of the first pic.

    Not sure Amy, but to me (and I am not plant expert) the wilting leaves coupled with the free stem tells me that one of 2 things could be causing it. Either to much water on the leaves or the light is to bright.

    Try not misting it directly but once a day or once every other day and see if that helps it improve? Again I am no plant expert. Just a rookie plant guy guess.

    I thought that it might be a result of water standing on the leaves, but I've been very careful not to mist it. Not to mention, it completely died very quickly in my grey tree frog viv, where it is a bit drier. It is in one of the shadier parts of the viv, maybe it needs more light? I've had it for about a month now, and it was pretty leggy and unhealthy looking when I got it. I just cant get it to be happy. Maybe I'll plant it in a separate area out of the viv environment completely and see what happens. I remember my grandma growing these very well as a houseplant.
