Brian, i would look at andrews store. He ships wonderful looking plants and also your supporting the forum that your asking these questions on =]. Hes got droseras which is the main thing that i would recommend for your terrarium apart from nepenthes. They're a bit more forgiving (drosera capensis) and would adjust better to the changes that you'll make with the terrarium, as in light changes, temperature, humididty, air flow. where as depending on the nepenthes species you get, you might kill it with too many sudden changes.
Ps. sarr seeds may take a long time to germinate, nepenthes seeds even longer. Drosera will typically germinate within 2-5 weeks for the most part. Theres a few S.A.S.E's going on right now that will give you the opportunity to try seeds for the cost of a few postage stamps.
This is the Sase im talking about.

Sdcp's does require that you send him 1 stamp per packet of seed. so for 4 packs of seed you would need 6 stamps. 4 for the seeds and 2 to send the self addressed envelopes. 1 stamp on the envelope for him to send back and 1 to put on an envelope to send to him with the return envelope and the 4 extra stamps. all of the envelopes must be addressed already so that all he has to do is stick the packs in and stick it back in the po box. You must also include a peice of paper indicating what seeds you are wanting as he has many different varieties available, your real name, and your forum name.
I wish you luck and hope this helped.

Oh yea i forgot to tell you, as far as bulbs go. Feit electric has a 42 watt cfl thats suitable for growing cp's they are a bit shy of 9$ each over at amazon.
Ive used them for many months and another forum member (growinold) has used them for years with positive results.
They displace a bit of heat so be prepared for that. In addition to what i wrote above, terrarium growing doesnt come without its complications. Stagnant air will be detremental to any species of Cp that you choose, so getting an adequate fan to circulate air will be neccesary. A timer to accurately turn your lights/fans on and off at the same time everyday and like stated above, the proper lighting.
I think in total you would be looking at spending (given that you may not have a fan) about 18 dollars for the bulbs, 10 dollars for 2 clamp lights at home depot, anywhere for 10-20 dollars for a cpu/small fan and 10 dollars for a timer from walmart. so less than or equal to 58 dollars.
That can be lessened if you already own the fan/timer/clamp lights. just an estimate of what i spent initially.
Again, i hope this helps you.
And WELCOME TO TERRAFORUMS!!! =]
