Welcome. Please make an intro in the introductions forum.

I keep them under moderate humidity. You can get about anything you need from our classifieds.

Humidity percentage is meaningless without taking into account temperature, ventilation and airflow. Chinese oothecae are sold at many places on the net but as far as I know this is the only place you're likely to run across someone offering European oothecae.

What does that mean like 50% or do you think I should go lowere becase these are not tropical speices.

However I need to know the percentage of thes speices.
