davy -- definitely a tank. I have had better experiences with tank than with individual pots for these things. Maybe they just like to hold each other's hands, overcrowding and spilling out of the tank.
adnedarn -- let's see if I can upload one of those when the weekend comes around and I can get at the camera again.
yellowdart -- keep it as hot as possible, I actually tried to keep the light lower and almost covering the top of the tank so that it's like a sealed sauna inside.
cephliebahaber -- now that you mention it, these plants do look like sea anemony.... That's fascinating...
traminh -- do your local nurseries sell them? I don't think it should be too hard to find, right?
drwurm -- I'll see what I can do in the week end comes around and I have my hands back on the camera.
halt -- they hardly catch anything! They're quite inefficient compared to my neps!!
jimscott -- I thought about that, but I wanted to try and make it look like there was an endless field of them so I went in as close as I could and then took a step back as far as I could without revealing the walls of the tank
jrfxtreme -- the paradoxa yes, the other one, not quite there yet...
klasac -- dormancy is something that I have not tried to work through yet. I grow these the same way I grow Venus fly traps. I'd try and make sure they divide and split before they go dormant so even if I lose the parent, I will keep offsets. I've never actually managed to get a falconeri out of dormancy yet.
capensis -- tank, for the win!
petmantis -- not enough! Used to have a lot more, but I got lazy so I started giving some away.
ellison -- let's try and post a few photos that I have for now. The weekend will have to wait for the rest.

They really do bear a resemblance don't they?

obscene looking thing living next to the stem forming paradoxa... (its not a hybrid, there really is a stem forming paradoxa)
