I've ordered another load of substrate luckily he's not really done much climbing (yet) but yes, it is a little low. The springtails underneath.. will they be able to burrow upward toward the top? I also really wish i didn't heave to mess up his/her webbing but safety first and all that.I've got water don't worry you just couldn't see it as it was only a bottle top when i first started in my previous pictures and now i have a properly themed one for him which suits the theme of the enclosure. Once i get all the extra stuff in it i will update you all on it. Thank you for the advice.The LED's shouldn't be an issue as they are coated in plastic but as you say if he/she chews on it then that could be bad. I will keep my eye on it as i don't really have any other way to light up the enclosure. In terms of heat these don't seem to get hot but then i only use them when i want a peak they are not on constantly as i feel that would be unfair on the T.Is that your GBB? It's stunning! Is it fully grown? I'm curious how big mine will be as he's like a dwarf T at the moment which is nice but it would be fun to see it fully grown. No rush though.</blockquote>
