Wow! 
And now I'm approaching critical mass! lol
Most of the small containers now are small colonies that I'm waiting on to grow (like b. parabolicus) or small colonies of small species (like Parcoblatta.)
Going from bottom far left to top far left; E. distanti, N. cinerea.
Middle left to top left; B. giganteus, A. tesselata, E. posticus, B. fusca, O. duesta (behind this; P. pallida)
That's all I care to point out right now. lol
If you look right behind the water jug in the lower left you can see some beetle containers I snuck in to conserve space (Pelidnota punctata and Gymnetis caseyi)

Nice work. The heat lamp principle is a good one. Do the same thing only instead of the red light have a space heater. Each of my levels have thermometers there is a 20degree difference from bottom to top. How do you get those pics? All my pics stink lol.

I turned the macro mode off on my camera, turned on the little light on the floor, stepped back, and took a picture with the flash.

Although I have two racks now, mine are not nearly as packed out as yours Kyle. I do have a bearded dragon now and she kinda takes up the top shelf on one of them, lol. Having 23 species of roach seems kinda small when I see your setup lol. Good to know you'll be keepin the hobby going with your growing collection.

Thanks your pics are great. Going to try that. Last night would've been the night had my Flathorns,javanica,Parcoblatta zebra,orange head,Ivory,gigantens,all molting,my L.subcicnta were mating was a great night
All this action has gotten me thinking about moon/tide cycles and roach activity :lol: Thanks for the advice.... B)
The powers that be (my parents) allowed me to get another rack, under the strict conditions that I paint, vacuum, and steam-clean the room. Well, after a week of labor and midterms, I finally finished.
Here's the room after it was painted and cleaned up:
And here it is after being refilled:
Ideally, once some more species get breeding/established the second rack will fill up with larger, nicer-looking containers like the first one. With pretty little labels on them. lol

Kyle, what is that heat lamp attached to? Some sort of stand?
