What a beautiful tank Wendy! Makes me want to start putting a bit more work into mine. Very nice T too. I've got a feeling you're gonna fall in love with pokies.

Really nice setup! I have a five gallon tank, that's standing empty, waiting for my first T. I might borrow some of your excellent ideas, and make it hospitable for an a. avic.

Thanks for the inspiration :)

{D Anytime, really. I had SO much fun putting it together, I really did. The best part was I knew I could take my time with it, so I had it in many different ways before settling on this one.

And where do you all think Indy found her place? GRRRR...she's on the rear slab of cork bark, BEHIND it! Of course I couldn't stand it and brought the enclosure right next to me, turned it gently, so that I can admire her stunning beauty. I've seen so many pictures with Pokies in their famous "Pokie posture", but being face to face with it - NOTHING compares. What grace, what beauty! WOW!

@ Manville. Yeah, I thought for a while I WAS done getting more Ts, but I probably just tried to convince myself I was done for "the wrong" reasons. I am NOT done....wait til you all see what's next. {D

Thank you all very, very much for your compliments. :8o They really made me feel good - thanks again.

:eek: Beeee-YOU-tiful! :eek: You reallly need to be a designer! Um, will you come over and take a look at my living room? {D

My regalis surprised me the other day, she's only a little over and inch... when she grabbed her cricket, the yellow was already showing on her underside!! Just wait, you are going to LOVE that little beauty!

Wow you did cross the line. I see it's not too far for you to adopt the misunderstood blondi. Nice pokie with the "mean" eyebrows, and what's the panic button for!? {D

HI Paul,

And welcome to the Arachnoboards. WOW - you made 16 Pokie enclosures? That had to have been a LOT of work. I hear you with the plexiglass. I used glass, and only the front is Plexi (not really Plexi, ...I forgot what it's called), and Yes, it does scratch easy.

Don't worry about not sending any pics. You have 35 Pokies??? That is AWESOME!

Well, this is only my first Pokie, and I am just as excited today as I was yesterday...maybe even a bit more. :)
