Very nice photos!
I've kept M.innata and M.chilensis before, but I never managed to get babies, let's hope you'll have better luck.

Galapoheros, are you thinking of the Vonones sp.? I've been trying to get a few of those, but no luck so far. Opiliones are quite fascinating animals to keep and study.
I don't know what the name of the species is I'm thinking about. I've seen 4 or 5 specie of harvestman around here. There are very common ones Texans call "Daddy Longlegs" that have very long legs. But I see at least two species that have shorter legs, like in this thread. One of them is a solid rusty color, it's pretty common around here. There is one that is not as common with a lot more color. I can't find a pic on the internet. It's black with some white on the body, seems like there is some red on it too, I can't picture it in my head right now. It's been a while since I've seen one. I have a picture somewhere, guess I'll look around for thos old pics.
