I have a 6" X 5" plastic pot filled with green moss from the Hiawatha Corp. in Shelton Washington.

This moss is harvested from the rain forests of the Pacific Northwest. ( the Olympic mountain regions)

You can buy bags of this moss at Fred Meyer.

Whenever my VFT's need watering I run distilled water over the tops of the moss and it drains out the bottom
onto the saucer.

Now I have this light brown acidic water to water with.

And my VFT's love this flavored tea as I like to call it.

Dr. Death my biggest VFT has 18 babies (all with teeth) coming up right now alongside of him.
Some of the baby traps are only 1/4" tall and they are already red inside and it is a green dragon specie.

My VFT's are like on steroids right now it seems!

That's very clever o_O Thank you for sharing! I'll have to make a note of that. I love the name of your largest VFT xD

Here are two photos of Dr. Death.

One photo with a close up of the new family members.

In the afternoon he likes to go out on the deck with his other buddies.
At night he sleeps inside on the coffee table under a 14 watt red & blue LED glow panel and a
16 watt LED red & blue Triband LED spotlight grow bulb.

The LED glow panel works top down.
And the LED spotlight bulb is in a desk lamp which shines on him horizontally.

Dr. Death loves those black carpenter ants.
I deliver them alive with my tweezers and the rest is history.
His favorite part is the thorax.

Cheers!

Eats, sleeps, gets out?

I'm glad I can just grow mine as plants outside, LOL!
