we have 3, they cost £50 each from local shop but you can get them cheaper.
set-up they need an arboreal viv we use exo-terra 45x45x60 with live plants and a waterfall/fogger to help with humidity which we keep between 80-90%,temp around 28C with a heatmat on one side, low % UV bulb mainly to keep the plants alive, plants with big leaves as they sleep on them, decent size water bowl about an inch deep so they can bathe, put something like the end of a jungle vine into the water bowl so they can climb out, planty of things to climb and plenty of cover, we use a soil/peat mix on a layer of hydroleca as a substrate

we feed them fruit flies, size 2/3 crix, moths, sometimes meal worms as a treat

we have 1 male and 2 females, although you can keep more than 1 male, females get bigger, but not more than about an inch an a half i think
anything else you wanna know, just ask

pics:

Cool idea.

Looking at some sort of dim lighting for the mossies so I can see them at night.

Completely off topic you've got curly tails in your sig. What are they like to keep. I'm looking for something to put in a four foot viv and these are on my list of possibles either schreibers or personatus, cos they'r a bit bigger.
