You can put up as many as you want!

Awesome pics dudes! It'd be really be nice to know what cameras y'all are using. Mine's almost not worth mentioning, but it's a auto-shoot coolpix. It does a decent job. So what brand of camera and macro lenses are you guys using too?

Mine is just an Olympus MJU820 point 'n' shoot job. Works great though as it has a 'Super Macro' function. Used that to take a photo of the above E. rubripes.. Think it worked out OK.

These are some of my pedes that I no longer have...

The first is an Indonesian Yellow Legged that I sold off about 6 months ago. I had no idea they were so rare, I really wish I'd made a better decision.





This guy was known only as an Indonesian Green, and it died of unknown causes about a month after I received it. I believe it was an S. subspinipes variant as well....





The pedes enclosures look quite try, but I assure you that they had plenty of humidity. I manually added water to the substrate under the hideouts that were found throughout the 10 Gallon tanks. The top layer of substrate always had a dry look to it, but the coco beneath was always moist.

Yeah, all S. heros pedes, and the third is S. h. castaneiceps like you have. You may have one of the babies in that pic. The checkered looking S. h. heros acts diff from S. h. heros and S. h. castaneiceps pedes I've had. Could be an individual thing but I'm wondering if it's evolved far enough from the others that it can't breed with the other forms. I tried it once and things didn't go well. I'm liking the looks of that Indonesian Yellow leg. That looks pretty hot. I don't remember seeing one of those on this site before.
