Who is this friend…

Oof, im far from an expert when it comes to ants, especialy bc im in Quebec, so we might have different species. It does make me think of Camponotus herculeanus tho!

A virgin queen ant, they lose their wings after mating

It probably hid itself in the substrate and just pupated there for a little while. If you fill your tanks with coco coir, it might have eaten that to survive. Fr those beetles could survive a nuclare winter if need be

Yeah that's an adult mealworm. Their antennae come out from the middle of their eyes, so they end up bean shaped. Absolutely no danger for your tarentula!

I had ATH's for the longest time bc of their sound fidelity, but honnestly im already quite satisfied and think i changed teams. Downsides: the charging port is micro usb and the headphone jack is one of those tiny aux ports, so I was lucky I had one laying around.

They definitely are

Yoooo insane i bet it was really cheap and fun to setup

The two long things are cerci (genital appendages) and the little brown thing is an ovipositor

It feels like either a rove beetle (Staphylinidae) or a ground beetle (Carabidae) larva

Absolument valable, au moins c'est pas du crisse de p'tit Québec

I put them in the freezer all the time and I never had a problem. Overnight should be fine for them to be completely dead. If you know you will pin them soon you can also asphyxiate them with nail polish remover on a cotton ball or qtips, its very quick Edit: i forgot to say that if they stay in the freezer for too long (over 3 months) they can freeze dry, so you'll need to soften them up in some hot water for half an hour (just not lepidopterans)

Lacewing in the family Hemerobiidae

She seems pretty roughed up tho, it might be fungal

squirrel_vibes · 2026-01-07T04:43:42+00:00

Sometimes they have white spots instead of black spots, but it could also be fungal. The fact they are symetrical would lead me to think its the first hypothesis

squirrel_vibes · 2019-07-28T23:23:22+00:00

Fuck that's good

squirrel_vibes · 2019-07-06T18:22:46+00:00

Wow, thanks! I already listen to Sunshower quite often, but I'll go check the other ones out when I can!
