Gail, They are simple, simple, simple to keep !
Imis are adorable---up all day - busy as little bees !
I'm sitting in my kitchen - I can hear them calling and calling from the basement !
The most challenging part of taking care of them ----is they will escape---- if give any split second to do so.
I have posted 2 horror stories - with happy endings - thank goodness ! I never go in their tank with out taking inventory. They hitch rides on the doors! I could swear they wait for the opportunity
They do need some space ( height !)---- they love to climb.
An enclosure should be a minimum of 18" high ( not including substrate)
I have mine in an * 18 x 18 wide x 24 high exo terra ( screen on top replaced with glass- easy ! ) just rip out the screen and silicone the glass into the frame (there is a thread with instructions / and photos here on FF somewhere )
4 imitators are kept in this size enclosure; they use every speck of space !
I believe pet smart has them for * 109.00 $
3 bags of ABG 25.00
I have plenty of poly screening and substrate barrier ( happy to share) ( I use screen and quilting poly )
I use small gravel instead of hydro on the very bottom-it goes on sale at pet smart
I drill my tanks 25.00 ( so worth it )
glass for the top 20.00 ( I buy real cheap plastic frames w/ glass at michaels, and use the glass. It's perfect-- no UV protection !)
frogs free![]()
plus plants -- EASY !!! we could bring you cuttings ! Heath has the most !!!! Like a nursery
I'm hoping Bill can make it ! We could twist his arm for some cuttings.He has great plants !
They can and should remain in a QT set-up for a while - mostly so you can get to know them and their sweet little habits !!!
Oh.. of course .....food ...... FF culture supplies
You could do a vertical conversion ? You want a door that can close quickly and safely !

I have all the stuff needed to put a viv together (got tanks out the wahzoo) but the only thing that stops me are the FF. I've thought of terribils because they get big enough for pinhead crickets and newly hatched red runner roaches, but then I really don't know if I'm commited to another group.
