Fake And Real Plants Mixed?

[webghost]

Hi everyone,

I re-setup my environment yesterday. I have a live plant in the center which is huge and have fake plastic plants surrounding it. Is it acceptable to complement the live with the fake and have it mixed? I have some fake ones hanging from the top adding more foliage.

Please let me know.

Thx!!

its not aproblem. As long as you dont see your cham trying to munch the fake stuff. (esp if its a veield, they like to munch plants)
Other than that, go for it. Most of us do it here.

I have a big pothos plant as the centerpiece and a bunch of smaller fake plants all around. I've found that Kukui actually prefers the fake plant branches over the real plant. He cruises on those and his "poop spot" is on the fake branches.

Thanks for all your help everyone. I just want to make sure it is ok to put fake plants around the real ones.

Yes its totally fine. I have one ficus tree and one big fake vine. My cham likes to bask on the fake vine. He is a veiled, and I've never seen him try and eat the fake leaves. I don't think he could if he tried, they're pretty tough.
