We have a few different crustaceans in the largest of our tanks. Tons of them really, performing clean up duties at the bottom! I really enjoy watching them down there in their masses, moving around at the lowest level of the aquatic diversity tank we have running. I need to do a video on that soon.
4:48 Wholly Canole Batman!!! That Cactus is HUGE!!!!! Seriously didn't look that big until Jesse started walking up to it and I'm over here like WHAAATTTTT!
Oh that l looks like so much fun! I was wondering what those sky Island adventures were. Too bad I'm in Chicago I would love to go on one of those adventures. Since I was a child I've always loved going on excursions anywhere and everywhere that had animals and plants and nature. So I received my orange scrub millipede and the two desert millipedes yesterday and oh my god! I love them! Thank you! They are so cool and the deserts, which I named Dante and Dakota, are so friendly and curious they're a blast to watch crawl all over the little jungle gym that I made for all my millipedes.
16:05 Sounds like you could call them "not sure flies" instead of shore flies lol. Thanks for uploading these, I love watching them during the winter while I hope for a daily high above freezing.
I 100% need to book a stay in the next summer or two, I can't imagine how much macro photography I would be able to do. Seems like the best way to explore Arizona for invert lovers.
Hey! Im very hyped to hear u guys moved here in AZ! I recommend going to sabino canyon at night during monsoons, you'll find many frogs, snakes and ect!
A couple other people have mentioned it and for sure I want to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation, Jorge! I'm going to Google map that right now as I'm not even sure where it is.
@@bugsincyberspace lol sounds good lemme know how it goes! I have a couple honey holes for rattlesnakes and various arachnids ill tell u them if you wanna at some point!
I'll be looking next time! I actually take a lot of ant videos but often they are in the vertical format for instagram and I just never seem to post them for some reason. Thanks IA!
I'm very sorry to say they were the only thing I personally drove down here for the move and they did not survive the trip, it seems, during transit. I don't know if they got too hot or too cold or what. I didn't know if they were alive or not for months because they spend so much time in burrow under the plants in the tank. I mean, they could still be in there for all I know but I have seen one in 9 months. For now it's just my peacock spikemoss tank. ;) Hope to get more this year!
those green things are ostricods

they are tiny freshwater crustatieans
that’s funny i have pictures of me standing next to that same saguaro in the beginning of the video from when i took a trip down there 🤣
Yeah, it was pretty much the closest one off one of the first pull offs!

I must confess, every video I watch makes me even more excited for next time!
Can't wait to see you again, Rus!
I'm not so sure on the paint your wagon sound track but Jesse's humpie shirt hits the mark! Great video as always Peter!
lol, there's only so much time to make these videos and I'm a far cry from a perfectionist. ;)
@@bugsincyberspace All in good fun Peter. I love your videos!
@@teleking58 lol, Robbie, you weren't wrong. Do you think if I had better taste in music I'd get more views? 🙃
@@bugsincyberspace Hmmm....maybe you'd blend in too much?
Those round things looked like seed shrimps or ostracods.
Yep, we have both seeded in the tanks now too although they aren't green like they were in that video, though we gathered them in another location.

Appreciate it, Braden and I very well may use that the next time I see a fly!

ALSO you should start a Discord if you know what that is
I've been told this off and on. Not even really sure what one is. I keep forgetting in between the times people tell me I should. 😉
You should’ve looked for pheidole rhea the biggest pheidole species in the world!
I'll be looking next time! I actually take a lot of ant videos but often they are in the vertical format for instagram and I just never seem to post them for some reason. Thanks IA!
Can you do an update on the Velvet worms. I’m actually looking to acquire some myself.
