Rehousing some avics

[padkison]

I've had three avics in vials for awhile that needed rehousing. Here are photos of the process.

Everything ready to go. Old vials on the left. Pine bark slabs, plastic plant sprigs, vertical plastic containers with ventilation holes drilled and feed hole, water dishes.


Pine bark with plant sprigs inserted in drilled holes. One needs to fiddle with the placement to get the right T-shui.


Leaves also need to be poked around once inserted into the container to get good arrangement.


Here's the new tenant. One needs to coax its fuzzy little arse into its new abode.


There. Care must be taken when closing the container.



Completed container.


All the avics on the shelf. New ones on the right.

They are 4x4x8. http://www.pioneerplastics.com/images/images/PL Photos/04 photos/48c.jpg

They also have a horizontal container with a friction fit lid that is good for juvenile terrestrials.

You can get them at your local Hobby Lobby or Michaels.

The ones at Michael's are an inch shorter and of slightly thinner material, but should work just as well. Certainly cheaper, due to shipping, to go to Michael's if you only need a couple. Last I looked, they were about $4.50-$5 for the similar size at Michael's.
