Hi Carlos,

Actually I did not know the difference between 'rip-ties' and 'zip-ties'. Thanks
I used these gizmos-they are about 4" long.

I have these in my R imitator tank.
The tubing does not remain clear.
I'm not so sure the imis would care anyway .... as they deposit eggs on the glass.

The tubing gets a frosted look to it after a few days...? after exposure to the water and humidity.
Like the air tubing used in a fish tank.
I'll take another photo.

I saw something similar to this in an article I read. Sadly, I cant' remember when or where it was.
I'm searching for it. When I fine it... I will post a link. I vaguely remember it being in a conservation project article?
But the tubing was very different; longer, opaque/white, colored stripes, much wider in diameter, and for a larger species? Not really the same but a similar idea.

One of my imitators was sitting in one for a long time this afternoon, calling and calling. They like to perch on the end of the suction cup. Silly-heads! I'll have to take a good look in it tomorrow.
