[QUOTE="Christian, post: 11396, member: 62"] Hi. I did not breed this species, so I do not know their life cycle and phenology. When I receive a new species, I usually look at the climate graph of the region in order to estimate their possible needs. Following features are important, when available: 1. Is there a colder period? 2. If yes, how cold is it (average [B]and[/B] minimum temperature!)? 3. Is the 10° isotherm line north or south of the place where the stock is from: this character may decide if a species spends the winter as a larva or as ootheca. 4. In case the temperature does not change substantially: is there a dry season? 5. How dry is it, that is, what are the precipitation minimum at the height of the dry season? 6. In case you receive a wild-caught: when was it found? spring, summer, fall? As [I]Gonatista grisea[/I] is from Florida, first, you should try to find out when there are adults. Next, look at the climate graph and try to give them subtropical conditons (somewhat cooler in winter). Regards, Christian [/QUOTE]
