My terrarium.

Ok, some of you may remember about a month or two ago I was thinking about putting together a terrarium, well, I did it, and I have a couple questions...again

Right now in my 10 gallon aquarium gone terrarium, I have 2 D.Capensis (in the same pot) that are both about 2in diameter. I have about 10 small D.Spathulata "Fraiser Island Form" wich are mostly about a centimeter in diameter. Most of the spathulatas are growing in one large pot, but I have a few in a couple 3 in pots just to see how they do (I'm probally going to transplant them later) And Last but not least I have a Venus Fly trap. I think it's green dragon I'm not sure. I got the VFT at wall-mart a couple months ago, and belive it or not It seems to be doing pretty good for a wall-mart VFT! The temp inside of my terrarium stays about 80-85 degrees F, and about 85-90% humidity during the day.

Right now the only thing I have over the terrarium is a piece of clear plastic with a small hole with netting over it for ventallation.  Should I change that?  My plants are doing really good with it over it now how it is.  
    Also I have a D.Capensis in there that isn't doing so well, it's new growth is starting to die, and pretty much the whole plant is starting to wither away...can I save it, or is it doomed?  The other one is doing verry well.


               Any Advise would be appreciated!

You could try propogating D. Capensis by leaf cuttings.
 
Ok, i read somewhere that it's good to use root growth hormone for that, I have none,

You can buy root hormone at your local nursery, Franks has it, walmart has it, a lot of places have it.  Rooting powder does not cost much.
