LOL ! Why am I not surprised this popped back up !!
I've been offline with modem issues for the past week or so, hopefully that's all taken care of and I won't be missing anymore of the hijinks here at AC !
BTW....I wouldn't advise using the rock and string with your viverium critters....at least not frogs.......mine have been having "issue" with it. Perhaps another color would be best for these guys. They seem to think the string is a fruitfly for some strange reason...

lobo- as for the purple string... i think it suits my frog fine
you gyes should really market this for the amphibian market! (fins, scales, and polywogs? iduno...) just think of how much work i had to go through to make this prototype from a fish rock with string! (which i aquired from an unknown source in costa rica... very suspicious, he tried to sell me a swim top too )
________________________________________________________________
emg abriviated- I was thinking that those little sponges that they sell for hermit crabs might work. After all, these frogs need to be kept moist...very important....it would be like "Have tub will travel" sort of. You'd never have to worry about them drying out.

lobo-i think your onto somethin... emg!
maybe we dont need people like nursie and dangerdoll to supply us, we can supply ourselves!, ill get string from the mysterious informant in costarica, and you can get the sponges! we'll make millions!
*thought you might want to know the news!*

I'm onboard.....Lobo and I've got it all figured out ! Our amphibian line will be "Sponge with Sienna" string. We've discovered that purple doesn't work well with amphibians....
Here's a heads up on the new line of "Sponge with Sienna" string for amphibians:]
It comes in 2 choices....you have your regular sponge for the cautious type...don't like making statements.....and then you have your "Sponge Bob" sponge...for the bold and brash....typical "A" type personality folks.
These work different than the "Rock with Purple String" line. Where the "rock" line is for keeping your finny friends from wandering......when you stick these babies to the glass, it provides a bit of tension as your herp is moving around...it will slide along the glass as they move, giving just a bit of tension, just enough to exercise those little legs and keep them fit and trim.
Get em while you can folks...line forms to the left !!

we better start stockpiling the sienna string - I think there's a bunch of it up here in Canada. And whatever you do, don't let "the monkey" know what's going on....you know how he loves to throw a wrench into our operations....
