Here is a list of plants that I know are in there, there is additionally at least 6 types of mosses that I can see, a mystery fern that is not large enough for me to ID yet, and probably a few others that have gone awol or I forgot to write down.
The some of the tillandias have bloomed and are pupping, some are preparing to bloom. Others just sit there mocking me. I started this tank last spring and most of the carnivorous plants were added late last summer when I did an order from BCP.
Some plants have died, some have lived. It has been a lot of trial and error, and some forcing lol. For lights I am using 3 - 36" high output LED bars from buildmyled.com , there is a low profile pond filter in there that pumps water to the top and through a drip bar that i made, and a tunze auto water top-off because I am lazy
. The tank itself is a 36"l x 18"w x 36"h exo-terra (100 gallon), I removed the screen from the top to let more light in. During the summer it houses guppies but once it starts to cool down I will bring my turtle (Emydura subglobosa) back inside and she can spend another winter in it.
Water quality wise, there is usually about 400ppm tds and I fertilize sporadically with Maxsea 16-16-16, I do water changes about once every 2 months to keep the algae in check and then re-dose the water with ferts for the plants.
