Can you take decent pictures of your setup. I am looking for something with Seans pods for an article but they would have to be really good pictures

Great photo Ricco, looking good. Don't worry about pipe openings being covered, they will sort it. Sometimes they even built fungus in the pipe for a time but again nothing to worry about, they will always get leaves to the gardens.
So do you have 4 pods now?

Brilliant, I know I've said before but I would say this to everyone with Sean's pods, eventually, which comes sooner than you think, your not going to be able to feed them from a pod in the long term. I had an acromyrmex colony which where a f@#$@#$ nightmare to feed and that was in a big exo Terra. Have you been thinking about this?
