Not sure.

I bought some gravel/pebbles for my tank today, along with a heating mat to raise temperatures. Once I get it set up I'll report back with my new conditions.

N. bicalcarata grows really fast. Your 10 gallon terrarium will be only good for it's first year or so. Mine bicals grow on average about 2 to 3+feet leaves ...making the plant around 5' in diameter on average. To give you an idea, my plants started at around 6" in diameter, then exploded in size in about 3 years.

The ones I had kept in my terrarria have all perished...because they need room to grow.
