[QUOTE="SikmT7, post: 158962, member: 10145"] What's up my T family? I have an A moderatum that's about 1 1/4 inches and was looking for best husbandry suggestions for this species. At night it gets a little overactive trying to always climb out of the container that it's in. I provided a hide, source of water, and the substrate is coconut fiber. I keep it more on the dry side only lightly misting every 4 days. The container is about 18 inches wide by 5 inches high. I put 3 inches of substrate to prevent injury from fall and I even have the hide situated 2 1/2 inches deep for burrowing. This T is very sweet just quite skittish, she will even run from small crickets at times. I have a nice husbandry set up but yet, still climbs a lot at night, during the day, inside her hide. Wondering if I need to rehouse or reconstruct the husbandry to calm her down? Thank you for any suggestions! :) [/QUOTE]
