Enclosure for Panchola nivea

Kevinswither

Fourth Instar
Any good enclosures for them? I am running low on space due to my large discoid colony (12 gallons). Any methods of sorting out them? Any examples?

 
I'd recommend something they can't easily escape from. Adults can be very flighty and they climb too. Nymphs just need some substrate with a bit of rotting wood and they're good to go. 

 
Here is what I found works:

Sterlite Gasket Seal boxes sold at Target will keep them in.

Bark layered on the 3-inches of moist coco fiber, and apples to eat.

To sort, never do it at night; they are active and uncontrollable. Have a tall sided empty plastic bin, place one of the bark pieces gently in the bin, pick out the green adults, then you can sieve the brown non-climbing nymphs.

CHEERS!
