Hi Orin

 

I think that the breeding Guinness of Japan was 50.7mm.

Guinness in the wild is 54mm.

That's a great beetle. Do they really get much bigger? I saw some in the 90s and they didn't have quite as large of jaws.

Yes the dreamsize is 50mm (1.9 inch), but this is a hard way to get this.

I get this guy as a L3 Larva, i keep him (it) in Flakesoil (everybody know this soil ?).

And give some Additive (Japanese Protein in Powder form) and it works, the guy is 3 cm i think.

 

Next time i will (if i get Larvae from the "Parentbeetles") experiment with this Additive from the first Larva Stage now.

 

I hope do you understand my english... :)

 

This Picture show a Male L. adolphinae 5cm in size.

Hi,Mashku

 

The Lamprima adophinae of the Mt.Arfak birth grows easily most.

Do you have Lamprima adophinae of the Mt.Arfak birth?

 

I think that it is a shortcut of Dreamsize. ;)
