Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dave Jay" data-source="post: 130052" data-attributes="member: 27677">This is the Phlogius crassipes "kuttabul" and the enclosures I set up for small slings. The enclosures are 5cm (2") in diameter and 4cm high, without the lid. I tried to incorporate as many elements as I could. I added a straw to enable me to add water into the bottom of the substrate using a syringe rather than adding water to the surface. You'll see in the pictures that I sprayed the enclosures after setting them up both to clean the sides and settle the substrate which was barely moist when I added it. The water dishes are 1cm end caps for tubing.

I'm not really sure these enclosures are usable even though they are about the size of a shorter specimen vial, rather than hiding the slings just pop out of the top, especially young Geoffrey!</blockquote>
