Alan Cynic Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Apparently geckos are a lot of work (getting fresh live food etc). How about a wormery???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaseyBoi Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I like the wormery idea but the tank is far to big.......And to wide.....I'd also quite like a wee ant farm i think but what the hell do i know about ants lol....Plus if they all got out what a nightmare lol....Gekko's sound interesting aswell like...Scoured the net for a few forums and currently looking at other peoples tank set-ups...

JaseyBoi Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I'd love a terrapin but im told by several friends they absolutly stink... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 I don't think our terrapin stank. You need the filter on the go alot, or the water goes murky real quick. Its great watching them eat. They totally devour those cardboard looking foodsticks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soda Jerk Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 They have pretty miserable looking faces too as they sit their on their rock, like they are pondering your living room, and thinking that it's shit. I dig that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaki Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Here's some interesting spiders in the home info from my friends at the BBC: BBC NEWS | Science & Environment | More spiders expected this autumnMy girlfriend made me buy a "no more spiders" spray which contains extracts of chestnut or something. 5 odd for a bottle of "peace of mind placebo". Worth every penny to make her think there are no more spiders in the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
