Ok, Does anyone know anything about Air Plants? I know that they don't require soil and all that jazz, what i need to find out is if they're toxic or not. I can't find much info about them so any you guys may have would be very helpful!! Thanks a bunch!! :)

they don't need soil, just proper lighting and water. I do keep mine in soil but thats easy to keep them stable. you can also mount them on cork bark with fishing line.

Don't know if they are toxic, but they love humidity :)

[Vivarium Plants (http://www.bmts.com/~csz/MingsExoticZoo/Mingsnontoxicplants.html)

A great canadian site with a listing of toxic and non-toxic plants.
Air plants fall under the non-toxic catagorey.
Other plants I like to use when setting up vivariums (for frogs and other small lizards) include:

Prayer Plants
Pepperomia
Creeping Charlie
Pothos
Sanseveria(sp?)
Moses in the Cradle
