Yaniv, I know that there's at least one other CP list member in Israel,
so you're not alone.
Your VFT problems are a little hard to diagnose from what you've told
us. A pale green color on the leaves that lead to the trap -- I believe
these are called "petioles" -- could be caused by a number of things and
might not even be a problem at all. My first guess would be that it is
not getting enough light since it is in a terrarium. Is this possible?
