   I’ve seen Sydney Plant Guy on youtube grow Alocasias this way!

   It looks good. My fittonia likes being in a terrarium

   Looks great so far. You may need to trim them frequently since fittonia will outgrow that space. If you start having any mold issues, clean/sterilize the container and leca, add a plastic mesh between the sphag and the leca, and sterilize your new sphag by pouring boiling water over it (obviously let it cool before use). I've noticed sphag tends to get white mold. Distilled water can also help; fittonias aren't picky but it's good to know for when you try any more sensitive species

     Thank you so much for these tips. I’m new to fittonia.

   I’m curious if anyone can tell me why the leca and the moss? Isn’t one or the other fine or is there a specific reason for using both?

     I was told that leca helps prevent root rot by allowing air circulation, and sphagnum moss holds water, reducing the need to water frequently. So they work together to create a breathable and balanced moisture retention environment that promotes root growth and reduces the risk of root rot.
