Best adhesive for gluing screen?
dactylus replied to Brandon's Bugs's topic in Enclosures and Barriers
There is a great alternative method for "venting enclosures" while at the same time preventing escapes. I'll post a link later for the "micro-screened" vents that I use exclusively all of my invert enclosures. -
Thank you very much for the breeding group that you sent to me. I'm happy to be working with this beautiful variant!!

They look great! Thank you for the update. I'm interested in obtaining a starter group once you decide on pricing and a release date.

Thanks for the info. That's too bad if this strain died out. I was looking forward to this one.

Did the sale of this variety ever happen? Is anyone currently working with this cultivar and selling offspring? Thanks!

Glad to hear that you're on track to start releasing these. I am interested in picking up a group from you when that time arrives.

Congratulations on the babies!! Awesome! -
Damn, I'm sorry to hear about the turn of events with your last female bolivari. I would hope that restricting the total ventilation of her enclosure by covering the vent holes on the lid for just a few days would not lead to the demise of that female. As I mentioned before I am also interested in keeping this species. P. bolivari does appear to be a picky species to keep alive. Adequate ventilation & humidity, the size of the enclosure and providing numerous hides/shelters seem to be very important factors in keeping and breeding P. bolivari and several of the other Spanish isopod species. If you haven't already looked at the "Albums" section of Edulio Isopods Facebook page you should check it out. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100010559525104&sk=photos&collection_token=100010559525104%3A2305272732%3A69&set=a.457198737975440.1073741854.100010559525104&type=3 This info is from that site: Our "small" cages: 40X24X!6 Cm. with a wire mesh of 16X10 Cm. on the center of the top. We use them for small species and for selective breeding purposes. Our "big" cages: 73X40X16 Cm. with a wire mesh of 26X20 Cm. on a side of the top. We use them for our main colonies. Based on what I'm seeing on the Edulio site I will have to set up much larger enclosures for several of the Spanish species than what I had originally planned on.

That is a gorgeous species. I hope that you are successful in hatching the oothecae. Good luck!!
