New MEGA enclosure!

I tried something like this for a while...looks great now, but I got a good suspicion that in about 2 weeks or so the plants and leaves toward the bottom are going to go into light shock and die. if too many of the leaves are affected the whole plant could die. if you bought those trees from home depot/lowe's where they were outside in direct sunlight all day, its going to be very difficult to match that amount of light on a 7ft tall cage. you may get the amount of lumens up to around 4 ft from the bulb, but after that you may want to consider replacing some stuff with artificial or add another light source toward the bottom

edit : that poor little parlor palm is doomed lol

please do not use artificial... vines are fine
just remember this is a living animal who lives on these plants. I added a light towards the bottom of my enclosure- it is on the outside. I currently am awaiting for my jungle dawn Klip-Itz which will help even more.
