[deranged chipmunk]

Yes they do. Which is good, because i really want a ficus benjamina for the red eye tank that's next on my list and they have dwarves!!

[pinkfeet]

Thanks savannah they are amazing little guys. But start your tank off a lil smller at first so you can monitor them. But I find these guys to b lil pigs when it cones to feeding time I plan on getting more but I highly reccomend Patrick from Saurian Enterprises, Inc :: Buy Dart Frogs :: Dart Frogs and other Frogs :: Other Frogs he was so helpful an the frogs came with the greatest of care an were amazing from day one plez share when you do get some. I plan on placing a order with him for his notch clutch an when he has his cinnamon frogs back in as well. Working on there tiny set up as we speak then it's super tiger leg monkey frogs an mint terribilies hopefully .

The plants i generally get from them are decent sized, but healthy. Never got a bad plant from them. I don't mind paying a few dollars more for a food quality plant. Shoot, i've paid $60 for a single aquatic, so a dollar or two more for the same plant doesn't bug me much.

Sounds good there plants do look awesome kinda excited to place a order. )

Savannah,

I started mine in a quarantine 10gal tank simple set up when I first got them for a few weeks just to monitor them. They are in about a 40gal now with plenty of room to roam. I only have 2 an they ate lil froglets. I prefer getting babies since most adults I come across leave me wondering of they are wild caught. Patrick usually just has lil froglets. There appearance does begin to change as they get older.

ok thanks.

I am a new frog fan and I have been scrolling through posts, seeing your pic of your frog, I had no idea that he existed! Then reading this message, so many names I have never heard of but are so intriguing! I am going to be doing some mad googling in a bit! I love this site, I am learning so much and I love how people really love their frogs/toads! Such creative ideas on tanks and decoration! I would love to see pictures of your tiny set up when it's finished!

adam - GASP!! lol jk i hadn't thought of ebay..ill have to look.
how many people do have vietnamese mossys??? ive only seen pinkfeet and one other member....they are awesome though.

frog friend - you'll love it more and more here. we really have a rare awesome forum community here. not many other forums are this great so you did good. the people are great and love their petsand we all help each other take care of their frogs. we all "babysit" in some way! lol

Adam, are you sure it was a jewel orchid. Home depot sells phalaenopsis (?) Orchids, but i've never seen a jewel orchid at home depot, and i have checked at the 6 or 7 around me.

[Savannah]

i would recommend jewel orchid from black jungle....thats one thats growing really well big and strong. there jewl orchid is good. but not the others.

[Adam R]

i meant phalaenopsis but jewel was on my mind. sorry about that. maybe its because im always searching for them

22" , but i'll train and prune it to stay in the tank, bonsai style

[Savannah]

oh ok. kewl

[Adam R]

honestly i use ebay. some may gasp at my suggestion but i dont have much locally and i haven't had any problems thus far. i run them through a checklist of course. check the sellers online store to make sure there a retailer/grower/botanist/ect. i also look at there plants and read there description and page. check for signs of under/over watering. i like ebay because i know exactly what im getting. websites like josh's frogs and rfi only tell you the species of plant your getting, maybe even the coloration. but they guarantee nothing. ive gotten bromeliads from rfi and was very disappointed i paid full price expecting to get matures with color and i received 4 very small green pups. granted they are great suppliers but i dont take the risk of being dissapointed when it comes to my plants

o and bill, i just bought a beautiful jewel orchid from home depot, yours in phili may use the same supplier. you should stop in and have a look see, i heard youve been looking around for some. there 9.99 about 10in tall and all the ones i saw were lavender..
