perch on not sure what they used exactly. Some kind of garden thing I think. Hope you keep us posted on how you do it!

I will start a build thread once we get some equipment picked up.....I will be looking for 3 - 29 gallon tanks and 1 - 15 tall to get it all started. But firstly I need to figure out what I want to do with ma and pa. Perhaps a hexagon or something. Well it will be a busy weekend I guess

One of the bigger tank sellers - perfecto or AGA sell a 30XH (24x12 footprint - same as a 20g) but 24" tall - that works great for a breeding tank.

Hi Sharon,

Once you get the breeding business going, and if you want even more babies to raise, let me know. I'd love to be able to put my female Erectus back with the males if I knew I wouldn't have to watch the babies die...
