Nice work Niels! Could we get an overall shot of the tank? Yours is the first tank I've seen that seems to encapsulate the natural look of the pygmy chameleons' habitat.
 
Wow, will have to look at your website a bit tonight. How many species of plants are planted in there? That is so cool!
 
how do you keep your leaves and soil so clean? My leaves get this bluish mildew stuff on them after a few misting's and what substrate do you use in your terrariums? And Congratulations!
 
Thanks for the kind words :)

Well I use a mix of sand and spagnum as substrate and thick leaves. Some of the leaves does rot over a period og time, but thats a good thing, as me springtails eat those leaves.

Im not doing any thing to keep it "clean" as I want the terrarium to look as natural as possible. People tend to forget that nature has rotten and dry leaves ;)
I try to use plants that looks as native/ natural as possible.

I dont have any more Rh. spectrum terrarium pictures on my computer, but here are a few other "natural looking" terrariums.
