Awesome pics! I noticed the jar of Tubifex Worm Cubes. Is this what you feed your dews - how do you use them? I have never directly fed the few dews I've owned.
I am very sorry for the thread-necromancy but I gotta ask the op: where did you get such a large grade silica sand
The largest I have found was mesh 20 silica sand from pool supply store and by the time I filtered it trough a lab grade sieve I had 1/10 of a bag of sand graines mesh 20 and up left... Sand in the picture is probably closer to mesh 16.
You are not alone, lol. The first thing I said to myself was "Nice sand! And nice plant , too!"
You could try using Pyro's instructions in the sticky section, but I actually asked Mr. Lowrie the courseness of the sand over there that these plants grow in and he sent me a small sample.
It was like sugar, very much like some silica I have seen here.
But what plants are in when in situ does not necessarily work in a pot.
