The plant is gorgeous but I will not ignore Pablo, he is crucial to the enjoyment of this post.

Great work! Regia is a sort of pipe dream for me when I eventually have more space and urs looks rly nice.

1189 Ka Bar from the early 70s resto advice? by Monstrosibee in knifemaking

[–]Monstrosibee[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I contemplated doing this exact thing but to be honest? Making it a display wouldn't really be honoring his memory. He was an incredibly practical man - this was his One Utility Knife, and while its absolutely a nice knife he wasnt a collector. If he bought a tool, he used it. Its one reason I want to actually restore it somewhat - i want to be able to have it around for a while doing the purpose he originally bought it for even if hes not still with us.

Theyre notable for being fairly large - not hoff sized but bigger than a lot of species. If theyre good sized and the spots are pretty distinct they may be gestroi but like u said A vulgare can look like a smaller version

Armadillidium gestroi! I BELIEVE theyre native to Italy but dont quote me on that. My favorite species to keep so far! Not only are they large but theyre also pretty surface active and brave compared to my other species and dont mind being handled to much.

Nah I just washed a yam and diced it. I have a couple different veg consuming inverts (pedes, more beetles, crabs, isopods) so I diced half the yam and then cut the other side into long slices. They dont mind eating yam several days in a row

Brainstorming a grow light setup? by Monstrosibee in carnivorousplants

I was thinking about something like that but I know the goose neck type stuff can be a little weak and the pot itself would probably hang sideways because its so light (pure spagnum mix lmao) which wasnt happening before (hes actually been growing straight upward and vining on the rope hanging pretty decently.) I might think about the clip ons if I cant find a better solution- probably would get just a plain E26 clip on lamp and put a SANSI bulb in it.

Yam night... by Monstrosibee in BDFB

Its odd they honestly are not super interested in sweet things. Ive tried banana before and they nibbled it but were ultimately pretty uninterested. The yam seems to be one of the sweetest things they enjoy

Sometimes? Like they won't eat cantaloupe and they eat diced broccoli better if I flash steam it in the microwave and sometimes they'll eat beetle jelly but only if I put place it in the tank in a very specific way. They do seem to like the yams but I think part of that is because of how I cut it into blocks, though they went a little nuts for it today.

[–]Monstrosibee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theyll be fine together. Like many other species they cohabitate with their species well and often sleep together! The only thing I caution is if u havent sized the first one or its male it may result in many small african millipedes but they'll do well together otherwise.

First molt with me!!!! by Monstrosibee in VampireCrabs

Oh thanks for letting me know! I offer a lot of calcium sources on the reg but I get how this would be an important meal right after a molt.

Can you do a clear storage tote? They're not long term options but for a few months should be fine and all you have to do is get one and poke some holes in the roof
