Brilliant stuff. ive ordered a few plants to keep me going for a little while until i do my full rescape :)

cheers gents!

I have recently acquired some shower caddy pots so I would like to set up some riparium plants growing emmersed out of the top of my discus tank. I was wondering if anyone had any recommendation for plants? the water will be kept at around 28 degrees. Ideally im looking for south american...

Quick update, it seems that the blitz in the earlier setup done a fair whack of damage and killed a lot of the plants off. However, even though the humidity only stays at around 70% underneath the dead hairgrass lots of new shoots have appeared and it seems as if some of the other plants are...

Whats the best way of maintaining humidity? I can only seem to manage around 80%

so...... here is the new setup. its a smaller tower so should be easier to keep the humidity up. the bulb is a far less powerful one, however the plus side to this is that i can add another bulb if needed. i have also disconnected the fans and sealed most of the gaps. humidity is currently 85%...

big clown i was thinking the same! :P

cheers. ive acquired the other pc case which is smaller and more suitable. ive just got a 1300 lumen cfl bulb and im removing the fans as we speak. ive done a pretty good job of toasting the plants however ill move them into the new setup to see if they can recover.....

cheers. theve started drying out a fair bit but i will keep it going over the weekend and observe. temp is touching 30 as ive had to turn the fans off to keep up humidity. going to go with a plan b this weekend and get a smaller pc from my friend apparently he has a smaller one which would be...

Its been running for an hour this morning and it seems temps are stable at 22 degrees and humidity is at 85% so im going to leave it on whilst im at work. Worst comes to worst it dries them out and I have to buy a few more pots of plants and a lower wattage bulb lol. Haha my friend has moved in...

Yeah the covers on now, but theres an intake fan and an exit fan on to keep the temp down so I cant imagine the humidity staying high. I may get a lower wattage bulb in tomorrow that way I can turn the fans off. I take it the plants will dry out if I keep it running?

This idea may be over before it starts...... i had it running for an hour without the fans on and it gets dangerously hot. Turned the fans on and it appears to keep it at a stable 25 degrees. However I would imagine that will be sacrificing the humidity? The leaves are already drying off a bit...

Like Andys thread (see pinned thread) ive decided to setup an emmersed grow box. The idea of propagating my own plants grew on me and after seeing andys thread ive decided to do it myself The kit is an old pc server tower originally kitted out to grow..... lets say tomatoes. Anyway ive...

Wow, amazing little fish, I cant believe I have never heard about them! Its also nice to see another member in warrington!
