You need to prepare the pitcher plants and ferns yourself.

This set is suitable for tall carnivorous plants, like pitcher, and ferns.

This is an open terrarium, with no lid so you plant to grow tall carnivorous plants, and ferns, this is the choice.

Where to put this tank: if you plant pitcher, please place it just beside the window, Pitcher plants need lots of sunlight. For reference, I place it by the window and turn on the light at night as a small night light.  If you plant fern, anywhere of the room will be ok.

How to water it: pour in water or spray water. There must be water in the bottom, the highest water level is below the dry moss.

The tank on the photos is the mall size.

We have tank and LED set only available on my website too. If you prefer to prepare the lava rocks yourself, for your reference, the small 5-8mm small lava rocks need 0.9kg. The key point of this terrarium is the moss. You may choose alternative materials, but the moss must be in Hypnum moss family.
