How dry are you letting it get between watering?

좋아요 1개I’ve always had a hard time with those. I keep all my carnivores under humidity domes, but once they get so big, they don’t fit. I’m still learning but in my experience, they need to basically stay wet and humid most of the time. I’d try a pebble tray instead of hanging it personally, with it being that big. But I could be wrong on the species as well. That’s how I’ve got mine set up. Hopefully it’s something useful!
2개 좋아요Yeah all definitely try the pebble tray method
좋아요 1개How do these guys get insects to eat when they are under these domes? Do you feed them?
2개 좋아요Yeah I hand feed them. Lol meal worms

좋아요 1개Yeah all add a layer of sphagnum moss and I give them rain water
좋아요 1개Depending on where you live, your rainwater could be too acidic and have trace things in it. I would switch to distilled and see if that helps.
