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.

Newish, and slacking on this post!
Hello all,
My name is Tarah, and I have been slacking on this post! I am a full time student in Environmental Science. I have a year left until I am finished with my Master's degree, and I plan on working in marine/ecological conservation and research. I am an avid scuba diver, and I love to travel. I am passionate about the ocean, reptiles and furthering my education. My boyfriend and I live in Richmond with 14 geckos, an albino corn snake, thousands of Dubia roaches and two rats. We currently keep 1.1.3 Uroplatus phantasticus, 1.1 U. ebenaui and 1.3.3 cresties. We have more geckos than anything, but we love snakes as well. We are always looking for Uroplatus! In particular, ebens, phants, sikorae and fimbriatus. All of our terrariums are naturalistic, and we enjoy enclosure design. We attend as many expos as we can deem feasible with full time schedules and so many animals that need our care. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to becoming more active in the forums now that I have lots of free time!
Tarah

Hi Tarah, welcome!
I, too, am a scuba diver (PADI Instructor), raise cresties, and keep uros. Hmmm???
We live in Missouri, so we have to travel a bit more than you to get to the ocean, but we get there as often as we can.
Glad to have you here!
Noelle

Hi Noelle!
Well that doesn't happen everyday at all! I am PADI and NAUI Advanced going for Rescue, and always continuing when money permits (continuing in grad school does not allow for a lot of extra money). What uros do you keep? Do you breed them? We are working on breeding over here, and it is looking promising! Will keep everyone up to date! Keep in touch, and thank you for the reply.

I keep phantasticus, which I've been trying to breed, unsuccessfully, for years. I purchased my first sikorae this summer, so I'm hoping to start a project with those this coming year. I hear they're much easier!
Good luck with your Rescue certification. That's the point at which the instructors can start getting really tough, and use their imagination, but it's well worth it! I used to put my best students through some really tough scenarios, and they loved it.
