What about something like Wandering Jew? Tradescantia fluminensis 'Wandering Jew Red' | Josh's Frogs

[Riptide]

I'm pretty sure that I'm going to be removing the Creeping Jenny that is in there as a ground cover and replacing it with some Moon Valley Pilea that I have. I was also thinking of adding another Philodendron, probably the 'McColley's Finale' variation to give it the color pop that I want.

I do have a bunch of Purple Wandering Jew that is growing in my two other vivs so it would be easy to add that for sure...I was seriously thinking about adding some last night but decided to hold off for the moment.


In other non plant realted news I have found that Chubs loves dubia roaches. Since I am not a fan of spending tons of money over the long haul on buying feeders I decided that I would attempt to breed these as well as the crickets. The wife was not near as enthusiastic as I was about breeding roaches lol.

It's been quite a while since I put any sort of update on the tank so I figured it was about time.

for quite a while my frog wasn't eating the roaches I had in the tank for him but he was still fat and happy so I was quite confused. One night while we were watching TV I noticed him on the glass stalking the shrimp that I had in there. Sure enough he dives in nails a shrimp and hops back out, he did this a few more times then just climbed back to his branch to relax. Now I at least know what happened to all my shrimp!!

Enclosure has filled up nicely. Hope those were not expensive mini shrimps .

Thanks! I need to figure out how to get the fern under control a little that way some of the other plants can start to grow out more.

Thankfully the shrimp weren't much at all!

OOh, awesome. I eventually hope to have one that size. I'll be watching this thread with interest. EDIT: only saw the first page of your post forsomereason? But yeah, nice terrarium
