    Re: My new enclosure (still work to do)

    I was at my local dollar tree the other day and saw something there that gave me an idea. They sell "moss sheets" which are just thin sheets of moss attached to a plastic net of sorts. I thought, even though they probably won't last long, they might look great as a background. I think that would look good in the back of my 55 gallon long, or even your new enclosure.

    Not really hard to picture a sheet of moss is it?

    Kinda looks like this:



    It has a fine black plastic or nylon netting on the back holding it together.

    Re: My new enclosure (still work to do)

    Thank you for posting that. I have actually never seen it in a sheet and I especially haven't seen it sold here. I would be very interested in purchasing something like that if I were to find it locally.

    I would look for it in craft stores or floral shops but I'm sure it will cost more there. I got it 'cause it was only a dollar for an 8X10 inch sheet. I'm pretty sure the moss was just sprayed with starch and pressed hard onto the netting. It remains to be seen if this will work well for a backdrop.

    Well as Charles said three littles scrubs just started there new life into their enclosure.

    One of them was more curious and active during the way here (near 7h into the car).The three of them ate an earthworm upon their arrival

    As soon as they arrive into the terrarium they started exploring it, they seems to like climbing the plants to take refuge in them (was really cute tonight to see tiny faces popping out of the leaves). They got plenty of rooms to explore until they grow bigger.

    I will try to take picture of them soon (if I'm able, cause they hide pretty well in there

    And thanks again Charles, we already love them

    Re: My new enclosure (still work to do)

    here some pictures of them.

    First the enclosure, they are on the top corner, under the light digesting their earthworms.



    Closer view (we see the three of them)


    and finally the more colorful one, who ate less and is less active than the others two yet.
