jared Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Hey, so I got a flightless fruit fly culture for my mantis nymph and he obviously doesn't eat that many of them. What other small or young inverts can I get besides T slings that will enjoy fffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roach collector Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 You could get more Matisse of different species. I think some small true spiders would eat those also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All About Arthropods Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 Small jumping spiders, small spitting spiders, also young assassin bugs might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted May 28, 2016 Author Share Posted May 28, 2016 I saw a gravid P Cardinalis the other day, kicking myself in the back for not nabbing her when I had the chance. I just bought a female D. Diadema for my male, so I'm looking for something inexpensive. Found someone selling salmon pink birdeater slings for 5$ each so I may just go for my first T.

Wow, the Phidippus cardinalis are beautiful! Hopefully you can come across one again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 I hope so, the only other jumper I've seen around me was a male P audux. It was either grab the spider or be late to class, and I still got to class 5 minutes late. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted May 29, 2016 Author Share Posted May 29, 2016 Alright, so I didn't think of this, but I didn't tighten the lid all the way and I have a slight gap in the lid and the tupperware where dozens of larvae decided to cram themselves into, preventing me from tightening the lid. I am so done with culturing these, getting rid of this thing ASAP and switching to pinheads. Good lord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
