I saw this green metallic beetle the other day. Does anyone know if this is the Pine bark Beetle? Or is it something else?

If these turn out to be SDC and not Zabrinas after, I may get some, just because of the coloring. They are so beautiful.

Re: a good soil for bananas

Re: Tiny Green Spider

The spider I saw looked nothing like those spiders, nor was it anywhere close to size.
