The leucs think they are tree frogs !

....see post #8 last photo ...same exact shot as this one

Bill will have to figure out what the little 'volunteer' plant is. It's still growing and about 3" tall, coming right out of the sphagnum.
The seed must have been in the dry sphagnum. The is sphag growing on the L and tropical moss ( from BJs) on the R.

Hands down ........best moss! Live Tropical Moss

I have plenty of rope left over , let me know if you would like some?
I'll pull the cotton center for you.....It will be ready to go
You'll have to buy a crochet hook, sphagnum moss and tropical moss. ( both available from BJs)
You'll want a good quality sphagnum.


Plants will grow nicely on thick beading line. These vines are in my imi enclosure against the ceiling ( they breed up there )

I believe it's this plant :
Epipremnum Cebu Blue

I suspended film canisters through the line. They don't hold water/they are very tipped /sidways. It makes a great stable surface for eggs and private place for the parents to guard the eggs and tads. This tank has 2 breeding pair. There are 3 suspended containers at various angles up there; and additional 4 canisters on the ground for the ferry ride to the water.

I have witnessed both females lay feeder eggs for each other's tads -on more than one occasion.
