hi all For the last 6 month i have been losing plant after plant,I had bad infestation of snails in my terrarium (seem like one of the pots i grown outside carried a few snails,once i moved the plant inside my terrarium they multiplied exponentially untill i saw them in every single pot). I...

I received my first Wistuba order about 2 weeks ago and the plants are having problems. The hamata katopasa had stem rot and probably will not make it. I contacted AW and he issued a replacement for this one (next spring). However, now the tenuis and another hamata have these brown copper...

There's this cute jumping spider living in the bathroom, but I'm unable to find bugs for it. Could I make it a tofu purée and serve it with a cotton ball? I don't want him to go hungry, but I'm not sure if he'd be able to digest tofu properly.

I took the picture below last summer in an area of exposed sand on Deas Island, near the Fraser River, outside Vancouver. I was collecting a small tub of sand to use as a substrate for some scorpions I had just acquired. While on my knees scooping up sand I spotted this amazing spider. I...

Hi all, Here is a macro photo of a cross orbweaver spider (Araneus diadematus) that I put up on my blog yesterday. I was using this picture as one example of how to crop an image. Cheers, EC macrocritters P8177473 orb spider closer rotated copyright Ernie Cooper 2012_filtered by...

Hey guys, One of my favorite type of pictures to view and (attempt to) take are those of carnivores in action, either catching or having caught their prey. Here's my few attempts throughout the last week or two of taking some. Feel free to add to this thread with your own pics as well :) My...

In the morning times and occasionally in the afternoon, I notice that one of my Binata has strings of almost a spiderlike ebbing across some of the leaves. I thought at first that a spider was doing it, however, I have never seen any apider to go with the web. It would have to be a small apider...

Hi all, I have discovered that I really like photographing spiders... they are pretty darn interesting critters—both in behaviour and appearance. Plus of course many species are ambush predators that sit in one place and wait for prey to come along (sit-and-wait predators). The nice thing about...

Hi all, I posted this photo of a harvestman on my blog last night—an arachnid that isn’t a spider for a change! Mind you, I did get some more really nice pics of spiders recently...they will go up soon. Cheers, EC www.macrocritters.wordpress.com harvestman F22 copyright Ernie Cooper...

Hi all, I finally had the chance to get back out in the field to look for bugs with my camera. I posted a number of photos on my blog last night—this was my favourite. It’s always nice to see something enjoying a nice feast... Cheers, EC www.macrocritters.wordpress.com spider 1 copyright...

Hello Everyone. Recently I saw weird bite marks on one of my highland Nepenthes. I am horrible when it comes to IDing pests so I thought I'd ask what y'all think of this. The plant has been quarantined, but I'm still very worried. About a month ago I saw the same symptoms on my lowland Nepenthes...

Finally got the spider of my dreams! She (hopefully) is about 4 inches across, I think I'm going to name her Roxy:-O:-O:-O Beautiful, super bright orange joints and ridiculously calm, just the way a good spider should be! Pictures soon to come! :spidersmile:

I found these a few nights ago after photographing, and saw a few more the following day. My camera takes decent macros, but this is the best I could do focusing on such minute insects. I don't know if these are even identifiable this young, but here's hoping. Even with a loupe I can't make a...

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...

Ever since I made the trip down to Mississippi from California, some of my plants have been acting weird. At first I thought it was just a consequence of the two-week drive it took to get here (not much light in the car), but because some plants have improved and others haven't, I'm wondering if...

As the warm weather sets and summer coming within the next months, my plants already show good signs of growing well and they like how I''m keeping them! :) Enjoy the pics! :) (to see all the pictures, check out other forums, due to the limit that TF has, I was only able to post 60 pics of the...
