Hello,

I'm still relatively new to carnivorous plants but am enjoying my journey so far.

I have quite a few Drosera, a few Nepenthes and 2 Sarracenia.

I am really excited to be part of this community and learning a lot.

My other hobby is freshwater shrimp and bucephalandra.

Thank you!

Welcome. Be careful, it is highly addictive.

I have quite a few carnivorous plants now, only after a few months. A few hundred.

Also have a corn snake, and red-bellied piranhas.

Guess I just love carnivores in general :)

They are pretty simple. Normal tropical fish. 78ish degree freshwater. Feeding is the fun part. The occasional live fish for enrichment, cichlid pellets, raw shrimp or fish fillets.

Nothing special really, except to be careful cleaning the tank :D
