I'm going on a little trip and was searching the threads for just this idea. However this thread is so old the pics don't work. Does anyone have an updated version or could post something?

Just make vacation cultures in advance - timed to produce while you are away.

thanks Alan. Do you just remove the top or punch some holes in it when you're ready to use?

I punch a hole in the smaller vials - and have drilled holes in the caps of the larger cups.

A moist viv (obviously there is a span of degrees here) will soak coffee filter caps after a few days. So I adjust my approach based on how I keep my vivs.

Also - I don't want frogs getting into mischief trying to get into a vial/cup chasing flies.

ETA: I store developing cultures with vented (coffee filter) caps. I change the large cups to plastic lids (with a hole) when they go in the viv.

Sorry to revive a necro thread ... but does anyone still have a copy of the photos on this idea or any examples of what something like this looks like?
