I have a couple Allomyrina dichotoma prepupas; However, there are some with damaged pupal cells. I have floral foam, but its my first time making artificial pupa cells. I just have a few questions. How moist should you keep the floral foam? And how long and wide should the artificial cell be relative to the prepupa? Also, Allomyrina dichotoma have vertical pupal cells, but is it okay to have horizontal artificial pupal cells? Also, some of the floral foam seems to stick to the prepupa, no matter how smooth I make it. Is this harmful to the beetle?
Thanks.
