    I use a 50 watt blue daylight bulb, the advice I got from other members was that is plenty of light for these plants. If you think about it, it makes sense, most of these are tropical ground type plants that get their light that is filtered through the leaves of other trees.

    This picture is kind of dark and the vivarium is not 100% complete yet, I will take more in a few days when I move my frog in.





    And my old viv with some of the plants (added 4 more after this picture)





    2.0.3 Hyla versicolor "Eastern Gray Tree Frogs"
    2.2.0 Agalychnis callidryas "Red Eyed Tree Frogs"

    0.0.3 Dendrobates auratus "Turquoise and Bronze"
    0.0.1 Anaxyrus fowleri "Fowler's Toad"
