[QUOTE="CosbyArt, post: 296082, member: 8168"] Great find on the huge tank, congrats. :D I imagine that tank looks monstrous, I look forward to seeing photos of it. Also nice photos of them, especially the one of them together, they are looking great. I saw a dozen beardies today at the nearby Petco. They were about 4" long including the tail, and very active. Two chased me and my niece's hands around the tank front trying to get their chins rubbed through the glass the whole time. I couldn't help but think of you and your pets when I saw them. ;) Incidentally we saw two adult Chinese mantids outside the store when we left, and I rescued one from a corner spider web. It got so tangled it didn't try to resist much, I moved it up high, and managed to remove nearly all the web. The mantid promptly started cleaning itself to remove what I couldn't, when I had to coax it off my arm. My wife and niece got scared and ran to the car when I got it free and it climbed my arm, as they saw a male Carolina fly off my hand the other day and thought it would fly onto them. They are hopeless lol. [/QUOTE]
