KitKatie329 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Less than a year ago I started out with this 1 tank: I've since expanded quite a bit, and still expanding! My favorite species so far is A. tesselata, even though I don't have any adults yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herpetologyfrk Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Very cool I have a tons of roaches, but I have them in smaller containers at the moment. I took pictures of everything, I should post them. The species that have the largest homes are my T. petiverina and my D. orini's. Well now that I think about it the E. sp. "ivory" have the largest home only because there are a ton of them. My psedudomops have a decent size home as well, I love watching them run around.

KitKatie329 Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Ooh, psedudomops are definitely on my want list. Right now I'm building my feeder roach collection because I am getting a gecko, so it gives me an excuse! I think it's almost compulsive at this point, I keep saying I'm done, but then that same day usually I'm like, NOPE! I want that one too! Who knows when I'll be happy with my collection.

Herpetologyfrk Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Nice! I have a few species in glass enclosures now. If ever have an office job I will probably put a nice non burrowing species in a tank to keep my distracted x) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
