GET THEM OUT OF THERE QUICK!! They are burning up in there!!
 
Most CP's do very well on window sills, open tray. Is that an option for you?
 
Wait, they are in a terrarium, should i put them in the green house ?(i tink no), i discover a lot of small whithe/gray like insects, i see them move in the roots of the pinguicula, she is almost dead.
What is a window sills?, i hear pinguiculas are plants for new ppl, but if it dies, what plant can i have?, the dionea is so bad too, but i tink she look better, i hope they get weel soon. no1 have idea why the leaves of the other change ??(mutate??).
 
Windplant,
Just to clear this up, what conditions are your ping in? They are in a terrarium, but what are the conditions there? Is there air circulation? What is the lighting?

Dionaea are best grown outdoors in full sun. Both pings and dionaea require good air circulation, so you do not want your terrarium closed.

Basically, there are only a few things to think about: Lighting, water, temperature, humidity (not really that important), and soil. You need lots of light, distilled or rain water (not tap!), reasonable tempratures, and the right stuff to plant it in. Most people use peat and sand, or peat and perlite. There should never be any fertilizer used.

If you could detail all these things, we can figure out what is going on. Don't worry, you can do this, even if these particular plants die.
