FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

due to plants I am getting rid of these (take good care of these, i would be heartbroken if one died).

these are the proper instructions to care for them.

a 10 g is perfect for 3
use gravel or sand for substrate (no pool filter sand)
brackish water ( 1 tablespoon of aquarium sea salt, or marine salt per gallon)
AIR ACCESS!!! most important they need about 3-9 inched of water, and plenty of land to breathe on, their gills must be moist!!!
food: plants, algae pellets, any fish food, any vegetabe (theyre scavengers)
ventilation must be well
change water every 2 months - 1 year (dirty water is fine, but i ilke to see them)
find the crab and put a peice of food in front of it that should last 3 days
small brackish fish are nice tank mates, NO PUFFERS (they eat them, even pea puffers)



Package is over night shipping

comes with: 7" peice of wood
9" peice of wood
filter (optional)
4" peice of wood
4" rock
2 red claw crabs 1 M 1 FM
and a bamboo cutting (unrooted)
FREE 7" piece of wood


I ask for about 12-20 dionaea muscipula 'Dentate'

or 32-46.00 depending if you want the filter too, it is for hald land half water, and is basically a waterfall.

if you want pics ill get them.


EDIT: if you want the 10g with vent lid add 12.00 to it, or add 5 'dentate'


if you want everything its gonna be like 65.00

or 25 DM 'Dentate'

Did you just sell your pet for a developing plant hobby?!
