Hello. I'm thinking of starting a terrarium for carnnivorus plants. There would be venus fly traps, pitchers, sundews and nepheus. This is the terrarium:

The tank will be 18 by 18 by 24in (LWH) I was told to use the sun lights they have for lizards and leave the light on 14 hours a day until Nov. 24, then cut it into 7 or 8 hours a day untill Valentines Day. This would help through dormancy.Is that true?
I dont want to go through the process by placing the plant into the refrigeator, mom may throw it out.
Also I would like to know:
-Substrate, in. deep?
-What kind of light ex. sunglo
-Any other info, will be great.
