yay! My PSEUDOHARPAX VIRESCEN hatched today :D Are these easy to care for? They're so tiny :D

 
yes, offer to them small drosophila (melanogaster) tomorrow.

don't need too much humidity but i personally spray them every other day-temperature, 85 F at day and 75 at night.

my new generation is moulting now to L2.

Regards

 
So it must be real hot for them in the day then. If it gets cooler somehow how do i raise the temperature up a bit if I don't have a heat mat?

How long can they be kept together?

 
I've just had some of these hatch :D , good luck with ur nymphs,

Keep them to gether until either late into L2 or as soon as they moult to L3 take them out :D

 
you can breed it coller but them growing will be slower. but always above 20ºC.

regards

 
can you use Fahrenheit please I don't understand Celcius. My guess you are trying to say 80 degrees. :)

I only had 15 come out. They're not taking the fruit flies very well :roll: I think they're still a little too scared.

 
yeah, mine will go for it but, they either hit it away or pull in too hard and they'll flip themselves over :roll: and that metric website was usefull too. :lol:

 
Has any of you lot got any pics of the nymphs or adults? I ordered a Giant African ooth from Ian and got a Gambian ooth free! He said he had too many and they're starting to hatch, and mine should hatch soon, so I just want to know what to expect from it :)
