Diploptera punctata and Oxyhaloa duesta...

[Matt K]

I would like to compare husbandry notes with anyone who is getting good production out of these two species. Mine seem to produce in very limited numbers.

Ok. Ready? Post!

Diploptera punctata don't have very many babies at a time, sometimes only three or four. Once the culture gets big enough they'll reproduce at a good clip but never the speed of most species.

Hi Matt,

I've never heard of Oxyhaloa duesta and couldn't find any info on the web...does this species have a common name and/or can you link a photo perhaps?

thank you

If you search this forum you'll get eleven threads when you type in "Oxyhaloa" but nearly all are trading lists. If you type in "Oxyhaloa duesta" you'll find a thread with a link to some photographs. To me it looks like a nearly black lobster roach.
