[QUOTE="Nurse Ratchet, post: 207480, member: 37967"] Watched "The Dude's signature substrates 101" video. He recommends drainage layer with the aranea when using deep rooted plants and with the larger "bird eater" T's varieties. The aranea info starts at about 16:30 into video. Both the parlor fern and calanthe that will have a deep root system. The rest I just propagated from other tanks, so if they're destroyed, I'm only out the $7 for the palm and $6 for the calanthe. Tank contains: 1 calanthe 1 parlor fern 3 Creeping fig; standard, variegated, and mini oak leaf 1 begonia rex 1 birds foot fern 1 white vein nerve plant clump 3 pink vein nerve plant (single stems) 3 pepperoni (single stems) 1 Jade pothos clipping 1 patch tiny Tim selaginella Some dwarf white and dairy cow isopods and springtails It's planted heavily intentionally as there is a potential for an 11 inch fall in some places. I wanted a soft fluffy landing just in case that ever happens. The "T side", 10x12, will remain bare minus hide, with a slope of 7 inches substrate. [/QUOTE]
