Would that be a label with the latin name on it at the front of the pot?

Nope, it's latin, and here are some more pictures of cacti from the Mammillaria family.

That's a fine set-up Nizzle. Do you buy insect food from pet shops, or chase around like a thing possessed with a fine mesh net catching your own?

I lure fruit flies by placing a banana peel or half an apple or orange in the terrarium.  Once i see there are some present, i remove the fruit, close the terrarium and have the plants compete for the flies.

Compared to the wild, my plants are underfed, but that's OK because they'll still survive. They won't grow as fast though, which is good for a terrarium anyways cause this way I don't have to prune the plants that much.

Smart thinking. Perhaps, if you know any keen anglers, you could ask for a handful of maggots as a treat once in a while, or even get some from your angling stockist.
