    Hey Don, thanks! I'm still waiting to plant the climbers. I'm really happy with the amount if floor space they will have, and the plants so far. And yes, the guzmania. sp is pretty sweet! But I am psyched about the Alocasia "Polly".

    Cheers friend.

    We're going to equip them with ankle bracelets.

    As for the creeping fig, yes, it's doing really nicely in the 29G. Not out of hands though. I'm really happy that the oak leaf fig is also doing great.

    I should tell you guys that I am not manual, not at all. There's a chance a hammer will break when I hold one. And last time I tried putting up a picture on the wall, I did 7 holes. I kid you not. These are real achievements for me. Whenever I start one, Sara cringes. Will the screwdriver rust in my hands? Will the viv spontaneously combust? I'm very proud of mine. My best bet is to build ones that will develop with time.

    I have another empty one which I should start in a few months... See if I can manage not to break that one too...!

    Hi Grrrit! It's an Alocasia Polly (Alocasia amazonica) commonly known as African Mask. Thanks, Grrrit!
