Nice =) I think its cool that you can keep the tank with no cover, and dont have to worry about over heating them with sunlight, if you dont plan on keeping critters you should be OK, just make sure the humidity stays at the level your plants prefere. =)

Hi
Don't think there is such a thing as a wrong way lol.Some just work better than others. Interesting assortment of plants what type of substrate did you use??
gary

ilike: I do acutally have piece of plexi for a cover, but it doesn't cover the entire top, this way i get some ventilation and some moisture retention.
Gary: I used coco fiber over aquarium gravel, I got a bed-a-beast block with enough for a 40 gallon tank and shaped that for the topography.
