T. verrucosus update

[ester]

Of the 10 larvae/morphs that I bought 3 are thriving. The other 7 all died due to refusal to eat consistently (they morphed rather small).
The aquatic ones are voracious and have never given any indication that they want to leave the water. They're eating every scrap of worm that I throw in with them.
They now live in my classroom at school where they look at me hopefully every time I walk in

Their aquarium is placed in the windowsill on the north side of the building.

I'm sorry to hear that so many did not do well. T. verrucosus can be so hardy sometimes, and yet so tricky. If they ever begin to get thin, they seem to become anorexic. I found them very frustrating. Best of luck with the remaining threesome!

Pushing 9 cm and demanding food twice a day!

This is the biggest of my 3 verrucosus, the other two are 7 and 8 cm. Insatiable is the word.

Beautiful and good going Ester!
