No not yet...I did look behind a film can where I have been hearing alot of calling from. underneath some rotting lichen there was what looked like the remnants of a empty egg mass though. Perhaps they laid some blanks or the fungus gnats got to them.

As soon as I get my darn amended tax return I plan on getting a misting system so I dont disturb them opening the tank.

Wife is also urging me to pick up a macro lens...hmmm....I dont need to pay my property tax do I?

bunch more pics today

My son Atreyu

Was cleaning my wifes glass and I picked up a hitch hiker. startled me when it first hopped on my hand. Didnt see it coming.

lol.. better that you picked it up and he didnt hop out the tank as you were cleaning then get stepped on... I saw this happen with a friend of mines fresh water aquatic frogs.. good thing they were only 3.00...

I am amazed he sat still long enough for you to get a photo my darts are spastic....

on a side note I learned why its not good to leave a diamond goby in a container without a lid while acclimating him to the salt water in the tank... they like to jump....

Could actually see into my wifes tank so I took a few more pics

One of my fav plants in it. Only cost me like .60 too!

The fern in my tank isnt looking so good. I think I will pick up another one of these to replace it.

SEe what I mean

Love this wild moss I picked up a few ago.

I had to use my foot to reach the camera on my desk and drag it close enough to grab.

Stopped by my local green house today. They where having a 25% off sale on all thier ferns so there wasnt anything decent left. I ended up getting a larger species of Nephyites (sp) nice broad leaves would make good egg laying sites. My smaller ones are doing great in the wet conditions so hopefully these will do good to replace the dying fern. Which unfortunatly is where my 4th frog is always hiding so I will have to pull that plant carefully. I also picked up a small pot of wandering jew for some color and some babies tears for up high in my wifes tank in the dry area where Moss wants to grow but keeps drying.

Is that fern that you're having trouble with a rabbit's foot? I've heard they like to have their roots a little dryer than you'd think, but enjoy really high humidity. I had one once and believe I may have watered it to death. Just a thought on that one if there's anything worth saving of it.
