Newly intrigued (lots of pics)

[bellerophon]

I suppose I should introduce myself as I may soon be asking lots of questions. I found my way here via my main hobby forum dendroboard. A few of us over there cant keep our eyes off of these little critters you guys are playing with :lol: I tried my best to resist and believe me my wife was adamant about me resisting but I think I'm going to give a few mantids a try. I'd love to be able to keep them in with a few of the frogs but I better get the hang of them first. Just so you guys/gals know where I'm coming from here's a few shots of my current obsessions. Poison dart frogs and carnivorous plants.

Welcome! Looks like you have a really cool obsession!

 

[hibiscusmile]

Those are so neat! The colors, the colors! ha ha Just wait till you get a mantis and your wife will want one too!

 

[Deutschherper]

Welcome! I love your collection and avatar.

 

[MikhailsDinos]

Welcome! 8)

 

[OGIGA]

Hmm, what are some colorful mantises? The ant mantis from Taiwan?

 

[Rick]

Welcome. Beautiful enclosures you have. I would not personally keep mantids and frogs together as somebody will end up missing.

 

[Sparky]

Thats a very attractive enclosure. Can you teach me how to do that? :idea:

 

[bellerophon]

Thanks all, Sure Sparky there's nothing to it. I'm assuming your talking abou t the larg exo-terra tank? A little more involved than the 10 gallon tanks on the rack but its still not that difficult.

 

[Sparky]

do you have instructions?

 

[bellerophon]

I have a worklog showing the steps and many other members on my other board have the same.

 

[Precious]

WOW! I love frogs. We had one a couple of years ago in a small planted terrarium. I'm ashamed to say I don't recall the species but his name was Hercules. :wink: Your frogs are lovely and the enclosures are really something. Oh, and welcome!
