Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Using Pill/Potato Bugs To Claen Your Cage?
So i just read an interesting tidbit about using pill/potato bugs to clean up leftover bug pieces, mold and poop. they said people who keep tarantulas commonly do this i was wondering if anybody did this with their reptiles? i understand that most likely whatever you keep will just eat them but i found it interesting and thought i'd ask.

Well, don't you get those in cricket shipments? If so, some do end up in my reptile tanks, but they don't really keep the tank clean. They poop too. lol I guess they change the texture of the waste, maybe. I also worry that they will start on the lizards when there are no other dining options for them, so I remove them if my lizards don't eat them. Interesting idea, though. If you have arboreal reptiles that don't spend as much time on the enclosure floor as terrestrial reptiles, they might be good.

Yes pill bugs (isopods) make fantastic clean-up-crews!

You can also use springtails. I personally think clean-up-crews work best in a planted vivarium with display animals. I don't care for them myself though...
