Kudos
It's easy to own an orchid, but kudos to you for getting one to flower!!! HOw did you connect the pc fan? Did it have a plug attached?

lighting
Due to the weird shape of the hood of my terrarium, I am using this lighting I found on EBAY. If it works, great, if not, it was cheap and not that big a deal, but it should fit and be totally hidden without creating any real heat issues.

small pc fan and a 12V adapter from princes auto and you just cut the ends off and wire them together..
i was looking at thoughs lights too but for a fuge for my fishtank... for a display it might be better to go with the all white light, better green look you know.. if you do end up getting it let us know how it is.. i wouldnt mind picking one up.

Wow
Those white orchids are beautiufl. I think I paid 25 bucks for the orchid. There were three in the pot. I went with the red/blue for growing and will have four tiny white spot lights for regular viewing. I thought the red/blue was more full spectrum. If the whites do the same thing, I might switch over to that later. I'll take photos when I have it up and running. I should receive the lights in about a week.
I love creating artful, mini landscapes.

Delphinus, I'll look to you to help me keep track of what's in my terrarium. I'm bad at names.

Nice orchid, the jewel orchids can also be green with red veins or purple with gold or green with green veins, all look very nice, their flowers are small white with yellow centers and flower quite well for me and its the only orchid i keep in my house with no suplimental light, ( other than splash from my aquarium.)
You will have to keep us informed on how that LED light fixture preforms and how well your plants grow.
