Stats:
32 gallon Hagen rimless aquarium
36" Giesemann HO T5 light fixture with plant bulbs
~3" of water (small pump & heater) plus stream
river cobble & petrified wood base, small layer of dried moss, and then on top a layer of sphagnum peat.
I will get a humidity & temp reading today

Are those mushrooms? I think I'd be careful about that. I dunno. Maybe it will end up being a neat effect if they spread.
