Re: Flowerpots as caves.



Here's my flowerpot method:
Take a 2.5" diameter terra cotta pot, half bury it horizontally in the
gravel,making sure to leave the inside of the pot free of gravel. Throw
some fine sand into the botom of the pot for females to excavate holes for
depositing wrigglers. Place a piece of slate or river stone in the front
opening to make a rock facade. Adjust the aperture of the opening according
to the size of your female (and too small for the male). Cover the entire
pot with java moss.
Don't neglect coconut shells, they look a bit more au natural.
