No additional lighting needs it seems to do well from just the daylight from the window (they are on shelving so not directly near the window) they don't need much watering either and there is a few springtails in there but nothing else by way of isopods - 'wandering jew' is another Hardy plant that does well from what I have seen although you may find you have to trim it from time to time <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Fellow member [USER=15599]@menavodi[/USER] keeps all his Ts in enclosures with live plants so I'm sure he will able to help you more than I can <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
