Nice racks, but they come in ridiculous prices as well sadly. sad.gif

Which gives me an idea, maybe we should like put our minds together to design a perfect racking system either modded from true furnitures or built from scratch! smile.gif

Ryo, how's the plastic shopping coming along? Any news? smile.gif

Have not setup anything awesome yet but I'm looking in to getting more of them for communal setups. Then again, planning on a plastic racking system that is more efficient and cheap. Exoterras are pretty expensive!! sad.gif

I'll definitely be needing your pictars to plan that, do snap as many pictures as you can man!!

I'm a cheapo and a cheapo will always look for the cheapest solution to things. Guys, anyone here got any idea where I can find play sand that are cheap? I'm looking to rehouse my Nebo Hierichonticus and I don't really need that much sand hence the reason why I'm not planning to spend on exoterra's desert sand.

And oh yes, has anyone tried using those river bed sand that you can buy from gardening shops? The RM1 for a full big pack of em. The person that was selling it claimed that they were harvested from the river and hence the name. I have doubts and I need advice. smile.gif

And by the effing way, nice picture you have there Ryo, I'm more keen to look at the setup though. nod.gif

Yes, akagi I do agree that everything should be improvised and DIY-ed if it is possible. I mean true that we as keepers should probably invest more in terms of housing these beautiful looking creatures but I do believe as well that we should find the cheapest yet best solution out of everything because we can't exactly just keep one, we need more and MOAR!! biggrin.gif

Dude have you ever thought of using clay bowls or something like that for your water dish? The plastic spoils the view imho. Overall, very beautiful enclosure you have there.

update in the pic of mites i posted yesterday.

they are called crickets mites and infest young crickets. apparently they drop off the adults for some reason or another.

they are parasitic. thankfully they only attack crickets.

on another note, i found a  colony of Liocheles Australasiae. got dome really good fat adults and some really cute juviniles running around the tree.

Nice find, any pictures? I'm also currently looking to keep a line of breeding of the Liocheles Australasiae, but I'm still waiting for someone else's female to pop where I can ninja some! Hahahaha laugh.gif

Hey guys, a little surprise I got today. This morning I woke up with 6 extra Centruroides Sculpturatus scorplings and a bag of infertile scorplings in my female Centruroides Sculpturatus enclosure.

The problem is, it was eating the infertile scorplings and then it started eating the ones piggybacking her and now it's down to 2 scorplings left. I'm not really sure what caused this. I have not been stressing her at all.

I read somewhere that says that it might be a sign that the female has given birth to a batch of bad quality scorplings and she is eating them up to prepare for a second brood. Could that be true?

Yup, I read about that too. What I'm actually concerned about now isn't exactly about the scorplings anymore. I mean, I can make it happen again. That's not really a problem. What I'm really concerned about is actually the welfare of the mother. sad.gif

Yes, I will have to agree with Ryo, she's settled down already. The one and only baby that is on her back seems to be fine with one on the floor. Others are all completely wiped off. I'm guessing another brood though. Referring my previous pictures, I can actually see that she's almost as fat as she was before she popped. Hopefully, things will go good on this! smile.gif

Hey guys,

I have decided to take out the remaining 2 1st instar babies and raise them up myself. Been reading a guide in venomlist and I do freaking hope that it would turn out fine. These two lil buggers seem to be awesome!! smile.gif
