Colder weather and high winds have slowed this project down a bit. I did toss in the Lloydiella to float around...and I've ordered Water lettuce and Hyacinth from Mark to provide top cover....I'll pot the Lloydiella then....it'll look nice and be functional.. ;D

Are the temps for the next few nights predicted to be in the 20s out your way...like they are here? Wondering if your Lloydiella will be okay when it's that cold.

I've got three 5 gallon buckets going here.  Very cool mornings makes it easy to catch them......  LOL

Man, I wish I could raise mosquito larvae.  I set up containers for them to breed in but the frogs took them over and I decided that I like the frogs better.  I need to get the right kind of hardware cloth and set up new mosquito cultures that the mosquito's can get in to but the froggies cannot.  They're a great live food and they're free!
