Re: Anthurium cutucuense

Wow. Nice box.

I would make certain that there is good air flow. The best way to do that in terraria is the use of an aquarium air pump. When I have done this, I had the air pump pushing air into the tank near a bottom corner, with the air exiting the tank in the opposite top corner.  If there is no air flow, the plants will suffocate.

Happy days,
Christopher

I know this is a difficult Anthurium so I thought I'd ask the experts for tips as I want her to, at the very least, live if not thrive.

Right now I have her in a display box with my Splendidum (which is doing great!) along with some other terrarium plants. The box is maintaining 92% humidity and gets medium light. Everything I've read says the cutucuense likes 80% humidity.  Is 92% going to melt her?  My cabinets are at around 50% and 70%, so I feel like this is my only option...

I do have a couple of props so I'll hopefully have another chance if I murder her... ;)
