"Domino roach" Corydia petivriana?

[Jesse607]

Anyone keeping these?
I would like to know adult size, climbing ability, ease of keeping them in culture, and any other useful info. Also if anyone has any good pictures, I would like to see them. I could find no info on them on the web! Except that one roach breeder has them available.

I checked to see if I could buy more from Richie and he's sold out so there's zero roach breeders with them. They are a polphagid and all the polyphagid norms apply. Not too difficult but very slow.

[Jesse607]

I would still like to know how big they get, and whether they climb glass or not, and where they are from. Thanks for all the answers so far.

Hey jezzy607... I don't have answers to all your questions becuase I just placed my order with Richie today, but I believe they are from India (please someone correct me if I'm wrong) and they will probably stay pretty small...most of the colorful little roaches don't get much more than 1"... I'm looking forward to working with them...now all I have to do is track down a dozen or so of the Glowspot roaches!

BUT they arent available yet, I think he's letting his colony build up for trhe massive amounts of orders he's gonna recieve when he releases them for sale. I for one will be ordering some. do I see Domino roaches on Strangecardoinverts.com in the future?

 

[OldHag]

Im saving up for some Dominos too Just ordered some Glowspots cant WAIT To get them

 

[Gsc]

Shoot ScorpDemon, I have alot of differnet roaches...just giving the colonies enough time to really get established before I put them for sale... Roaches are some of my favorite inverts... Right now I have:

Rhino Roaches (1.1 adults and 3 juvies)
Zebra Hissers
Giant Morph Hissers
Regular Hissers
Giant Cave Roaches
Peppered Roaches
TRUE Death's Head Roaches (Black Wing Form)
Green Banana Roaches
African Bullet Roaches
Lobster Roaches
Discoid Roaches
...and now I just ordered 10 Domino Roaches to start another colony...

 

[ScorpDemon]

if youre looking to add some orange heads to the mix.. let me know.. i have a decent colony going.. in a month or 2 i may be able to spare even more., and if these slings will molt into something a little bit bigger i can get rid of the few lobster roaches i have as well.
i can almost get rid of the lobsters now.. i put a female cricket in a vial with moist peat and let her lay eggs for 3-4 days, then do it again every 10-14 days so i always have pinheads.. i only have 2 slings to feed that cant handle an orangehead or discoid nymph. i'm actually looking for some true death's heads, B. lateralis, and B. dubia.. and of course when i get enough discoids built up in my rather small(at the moment) colony i have a trade lined up for some hissers.. (havent forgot about ya Michelle) the hissers i think would be cool for local shows where there will be kids.

Richie...I love your site. Out of the 50,000 hits on your web page this year 45,000 of them were me I just cant figure out where to go on your site to BUY anything....

My next projects, when I earn the money, will be dominos and harlequins

 

[Jesse607]

Thanks Richie! Hopefully when I have money you will have dominos...but I won't count on it, sounds like they are hot sellers!
