I noticed you keep imitators, would you mind posting a picture of their set up? I am on Patricks waiting list and would like to get some tank ideas. Thank you

Imitators just need a vertical or tall tank. Some keep them in a 10G tall, which is where mine are going temporarily. It's been shown that they are bolder and show more activity in a slightly larger tank like a 15-20 high. Good luck on that waiting list I heard it's a looooong list. BTW, have you tried the Dendroboard?

jaredj,

No i haven;t tried dendroboard yet, i was just reading thru posts here and noticed that slaytonp's sig. contained imitators. I contacted Patrick and he said that my name should come up in 6 months at most. I was planning on getting a hexagon tank, possibly a 20 or so.

I think that would be perfect for them. You know slaytonp has a gallery here on Kingsnake right?

This is one tank that I set up a couple of years ago, taken before there were any frogs in it. It's a 30 high hexagonal. I have another 18 high with a single pair. The Kingsnake gallery doesn't contain all of my pictures of frogs and set ups. Some others are on villagephotos.com.

I'm really going to have to update these photos. It sure looks different now--Lots more bromeliads and bottom is entirely covered in moss and tiny creeping ivy. This photo is of a pair--Mom's standing on top of Dad checking on her eggs.
