oh and 1 more thing...when u buy soil, make sure u shop around n find sumthing for tropicals. I buy bails of "PRO MIX", and u can tell this stuff is good because your entire house reeks like the fresh smell of a garden. If ur soil doesnt have that strong aroma to it then u know it doesnt contain very many nutrients at all. this stuff comes in a black plastic bail and lists about 30 chemicals that they mixed in with it specificly for tropicals. hope i helped.
