Everything looks stellar.

That SG raff is a winner, I don't think I've seen ribs that pronounced, or such a color combination on any form before!

 

[Sundrew]

Thanks guys! Quite proud of my raff babies.

That big raff is really striking. 'Looks a lot like an abstract painting in its coloring.

Long time no see! Got a new camera for Christmas, and here are the first photos I took with it.

So, I have purposely killed my sundews. I plan on making a new terrarium this summer, but for now I couldn't handle their care. It's cool though, I have seeds of almost all of them.

Meanwhile my LL terrarium looks pretty sweet. I just cleaned it up yesterday and took some pics.


Here it is, complete with computer fan. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND having a fan in your setup, so air doesn't get too stagnant.

This is why you need the computer fan:

Looking spotless, Drew (well, figuratively). How did you kill the dews?

 

[Sundrew]

Thanks Mat! It wasn't really pretty haha. My old tray setup was not efficient at holding water, so I had to water it several times a week. As school got busy I forgot for weeks at a time, and they just dried up. Lucky I collected a lot of seeds.

MY GLANDULIFERA IS HERE!!!

Because I have to wait until winter for the LL tank to get into the intermediate range, I stuck it in a terrarium in my cool basement. Temperature should fluctuate from the around 80 during the day to 65 at night..
