no...it's the old 'effort vs results' lesson. The best effort is to hand-remove. Easiest and most effective. Remove the wet wood and wet leaf litter too, and just be diligent for a while and they will peter out. Most hobbyists are so shocked by the appearance of viv pests that they view 12 days as a LONG time and that's why there is little patience and so many ineffectual recommendations - usually by other new hobbyists that have never done a CO2 bomb themselves - only parroting something they saw someone else post.
if you have OCD or are a germaphobe or a 'what if' type of person, then this is gonna be a tough hobby for me to recommend. Tear-downs of tanks and constant stress will totally eliminate your fun for this hobby and before you know, you'll be out- selling your tank. I've had flatworms, grain mites, soil mites, centipedes, a 6 inch long Asian house centipede, some small black centipedes that move like snakes, snails, slugs...half of that list I am currently dealing with. Just hand remove and try not to stress. Again, if you feel like you have to get every last one and are freaking out about eggs and bombing a tank ect ect...then you may not be long for the hobby

After spending a total of 8 weeks at Sloan-Kettering in NYC on a clinical cancer trial drug, I am pleased to be able to report that my thyroid cancer is under control. I was given a year, but now prognosis is 3-4 years and then another of the same. I'M BACK! My goal is to outlive Rich Frye! Lol!
I need to thank Craig Breon for all his support, use of his garage and basement these past many months in helping me to sell off everything. Thank you, Philsuma, for helping me move everything to Craig's (I do hope he's forgiven you by now; lol).
Because my treatment took so long and I was absent so much, my law firm fired me after having (1) worked there for 17 years and (2) recovered a $1 million judgment in Federal District Court for them for a doctor against a hospital. Of course, no reason was given why I was terminated. I have not seriously looked for employment, since I remain fatigued from the treatments, but will be back in full swing soon.
Out of all my frogs, I miss my first one most of all---my Patricia "Samantha." Since I don't have all that much energy, I was thinking of getting back into the hobby with three pairs of terribilis (mint, orange and golden)---so I wouldn't be necessarily dependent on always raising FFs. I'd like to do one large long tank (55 gallon or 40 gallon breeder) split in three separate sections to not mix these frogs. What do you think? I build my own vivariums with waterfalls, lighting etc., so I'd like to put a reasonable amount of time in one tank rather than hurriedly try to build three.

Migrating to a new server and doing a large php forum update.
The forum should be good to go as is currently - bare bones, but able to be used.
We will be looking to add the forum 'skins' as well as the plug-ins bells and whistles.
Thanks for your patience.
