Enclosure H. Mac, questions

[Tnoob]

so here's my H Mac enclosure. It's a sling. I want to say 1 1/2 to 2" probably 4th instar, I'm guessing. I have about 2 inches of substrate, still moist. I'm curious, should I hot glue a soda bottle lid near the cork bark, or just spritz the sides and bark?

I always prefer a dish...misting evaporates too fast.

I've heard they like their water up high too. Does it really matter all that much? Hot glue is a pain in the ass.

You can have the dish on the ground, the T will find it. This same myth goes with Avics, and I can tell that @Arachnoclown 's Avics, my C. versicolor, and many more all over the world are drinking from a dish that's placed on the ground level.

My C versicolor basically won't ever go to ground...ever.

I use an elevated waterdish with no problem. In fact, it's a wine glass in an ExoTerra nano tall cage. If they won't go to ground, they could dehydrate.

I'm going to start a go fund me page to save the Caribena versicolor on the island of Martinique. My mission will be to attach wine glasses to all the trees so all the versicolors can drink from. I dont know how they have survived this long with out elevated drinking bowls but I'll be dammed if any more are going to die on my watch. No more dehydration!!!

Where do we donate!?!
cash only or will unwanted wine glasses be accepted?...I wanna do my bit! x

I went ahead and attached it to the side of the cup. At least the hot glue is non toxic

A little tip to make it cheaper: Use plastic wine glasses...LOL

In fairness I imagine when it rains there are divots in the trees bark that collect water and act as a waterdish

Hydration by osmosis.
