Think you can get a pic of the side of the enclosure in good light, just so we can see if it really is moist enough? The kind of substrate these guys are found in in the wild is very different from coco fibre(which tends to dry out much faster as well). IMO coco fibre just doesn't hold shape like peat moss or soil, and I've always preferred to use peat moss for any tropical species.
