Correct they are Red Foots, the one you prob thought was a russian is the little yellow foot hanging out with them.

They would totally eat cacti, anything that aint brown or black is on the menu for these guys, even if it isnt good for them, they dont know any better. Eating machines, nothing like watching them lay waste to a cantelope.

Nice terrariums you got there machete! heres mine,








I caught these guys in the morning up at the front of the tank near the pond. Almost every morning before my lights turn on while the sun shines through my window and into the tank these guys are always up and around the pond.

I'll try to get a new FTS.. i am missing a plant on the left side there..not sure if i should add a brom there or just let the creeping fig or plant on bottom grow up.

Where do you get your broms Machete? i love those red ones.. i cant find any good ones..any places to order from that you know of?

Default inspired

Well, after seeing these few pics I was inspired. I ran out and with my DIY mentality I have created my first terrarium. Other than Hawaiin Botanicals, is there another store i should check out for miniature orchids and other plants?
