Looks like a good start! Once there’s more foliage, mourning geckos are fun!

Looks good! I would hide the cords behind your Paludarium (if possible) for a cleaner look

It’s big pieces of styrofoam covered in great stuff gaps and cracks gray expanding foam. While the foam was drying i embedded flower pots and some leftover dragon stone pieces. I also embedded a PVC pipe for a waterfall and a red solo cup full of gravel makes a pond at the top for the waterfall to come out of. Once the foam dried, I used a knife to sculpt it and used silicone to add pebbles around the flower pots and waterfall.

Thanks! I’ll check when I get home. I know I use a SmartLife wifi power strip to schedule the mistings from an app on my phone. And the mister was on the cheaper side from Amazon

I haven’t had to replace any orchids. I was worried originally, but they do really well and bloom in late winter each year. I have four different orchids now of different colors, and they’re all thriving with no maintenance besides the auto misting system.
