I saw U. phantasticus from my own eyes in real. It's just amazing, they're wonderful as yours. But can you write their full name ? I guess it's not just Uroplatus sp. right ?

Do they practice autotomy ? It's like if they lost their tails, or maybe it's normal for the specie.

Great pic by the way.

Do you have some photos of their setup ?

See you

These guys are Uroplatus sp. nov. aff ebenaui and not Uroplatus phantasticus. These species only has the small spear point for the tail and do not have a nice large tail like the U. phantasticus. These guys are in large plastic critter keepers right now as they are still growing. It is about time I get them in a more suited tank. I will be placing these guys in a converted 10 gallon on its side to make it an aboreal tank...

Hannibal and Louis like this.

Study up on them... and search for CB. I got these from T. R. Herps. they are not that hard to keep in my book, but I have been keeping Uroplatus off and on for over 10 years. I understand the requirements and meet them. Look for areas they are from, and match the terrian and climate as best you can, and you can't help but have them thrive.
