    Web of Life

    I've been feeding a feral female spider (some type of species which makes a funnel type web) over that last couple of months. She has gotten larger from the flightless fruit flies i have been supplying her with each day. Over the past few days i have noticed that a male has come knocking...

    Ant Plants in formacariums

    Will ant plants do well in the same enclosure as ants? Will their light and humidity requirements interfere with the ant's? I'd like insight for all types of ant plants, especially dischidia.

    VFT's flooded!

    TF, I just wanted to share a pic of my VFT's covered completely with water. This happens out in nature so I figure I should do the same taking into account they are growing in a big container having closet 2ft of soil below. The chances of my plants rotting are very unlikely. I also met with...

    An ant nest has moved into my indoor terrarium

    Over the past 24 hours, an ant nest has been set up in my terrarium. Turns out my brother had been eating food in his room next to mine and the sugar ants have migrated to my terrarium. They made their way through the ventilation crack at the top and into a pot that was touching the glass. My...

    Pitcher Slime?

    Has anyone ever heard of a pitcher producing slime? It's a very dark green color. It's a new vogelii, and I noticed there was something black inside the pitcher, but I disregarded it until I realized there was more. I tipped the pitcher upside down a few moments ago and this black stuff oozed...

    A flytrap that doesn't eat?

    I bought a VLT about 3 weeks ago. For two weeks I left it outside during the day to get sunlight and catch insects and brought it inside at night to avoid any extreme weather/storms. It didn't catch or eat anything for two weeks. So I decided to cut a small piece of earthworm to give it...

    I have an ant problem in my terrarium

    Greetings. I have a carnivorous plant terrarium that I had growing under growlights on my windowsill. However, about a month or so ago, I noticed ants running through the terrarium. They are not fire ants or black ants. They appear to be regular sugar ants. They are feeding on all the nectar...

    Tips for big nectar spoons?

    So, I received an H. minor "Red" from Ron after the NASC auction. It's producing pitchers close to the size of the ones it came with, but the nectar spoons are TEENY. Like, the size of a teeny ant, as opposed to the size of a small lentil. Currently it is growing under ~5000 lumens of T5 HO...

    Drosera capensis "Red" and 'Albino' Timelapse

    The ant got away... bah... Also, I screwed up the image resizing, so definition may not be stellar. I think I might be starting to get the hang of this, though. Time to get better software than Windows Movie Maker. A number of things went wrong with this one, so I'm not proud of it, but oh...
