Actually, I am not putting the staghorn fern in because it turned out to be too large to go through the opening. I wasn't worrying about the plants though, because I got them at a local nursery that has an entire section dedicated to vivariums. Plus, the only new ones are the staghorn and the flamingo flower. All the others have been growing in my smaller tanks or used to until they got too big. I don't fertilize or apply pesticide to my plants, that's what waterchanges, rubbing alcohol, and tweezers are for. As for the lizards, humidity is 70% with the lid on, and I would only have 2 frogs. American greens don't eat house geckos or anoles, I've kept them together before. Plus they don't get large enough. The same applies to the greys. By the way, I couldn't wait. I added water yesterday and the seal has held very nicely! So this morning I threw all the aquatic plants in. I'll try to get pics tonight, but no promises. There's no soil yet either (in both the water or land portion). By the way, what should I use as a substrate in the water portion? Pea Gravel? Sand?
