Hello Orchid-fans,

Does anyone have experience with growing orchids in a aquarium?
I guess you need some tools to maintain the temperature and a flow of
fresh air or something?

Greetings Yuri



Perhaps terrarium or vivarium is what Yuri meant. Some orchids can be
grown well in such conditions. Pleurothallids are a good choice. Air
circulation is a good idea.

A lot of people who keep dart frogs or other amphibians have elaborate
vivariums with various orchids in them. Personally, I'd recommend a
rotating selection of orchids in that kind of condition. Keep them in
pots (don't plant them in the moss), and shuffle them out every three or
so months. I'd wager very few people do that, though.
