Well, my Pings and Drosera live in an enclosed terrarium, and can
not access gnats (unless I put them there). While I have attempted
to grow fruit flies inside, nothing really ever seemed to eat them.
So lately I've been dropping little ants on top of the Pings, and
stuffing mostly dead flies into my Dionea.

Is this what I must do to keep my little plants happy?
