Why is the thread titled "full species list" when there isn't a full species list given?
 
Cut him some slack, please; Chli. ;)
If I might add:

Spiders:
Latrodectus hasselti (my L. hesperus and obscurior died of old age recently)
Lasiodora parahybana
Pterinochilus murinus
Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens
Viridasius sylvestris

Scorpion: Parabuthus villosus

Giant centipede: Scolopendra subspinipes
 
Ah, I thought PDFs might have been the missing species because I was surprised not to see any listed.

Any interest/plans in eventually adding saltwater species @Batto, like cone snails or puffer fish? Or perhaps the extra work of maintaining saltwater tanks is a discouraging factor?
 
There are two reasons currently preventing me from adding maritime aquaria:
- The Location: the rooms of WdG are currently located in an old office building with suboptimal ventilation. I already have a hard time preventing mold with the tanks I currently have.
- The Competition: the two public aquaria at Stralsund already display several venomous maritime species in a professional setting. I have to be up to my game to compete with that.

In a future extension, live maritime species are planned in.
Thanks Jurek7. :)
