[QUOTE="leaveittoweaver, post: 75253, member: 4055"] Everyone was on different substrate. The M.Balfouri was on cheap potting soil that it has been on for a year. The P.Cam was on some dark substrate(it came on it so I don't know exactly what it is), both vagans were on cheap potting soil they had been on for quite awhile(months), the H.Vonwirthi was on eco earth, and C.Darlingi was on cheap potting soil. I'm very careful with what potting soil I use as well. They all molted first then died, except Vonwirthi,Versicolor and the C.Darlingi(sorry I didn't say this initially), they did not molt. They just died. I think the Vonwirthi though was very unrelated to whatever happened with the rest because it was a newer addition that was not doing well from the start. The Darlingi was always super skinny and may have just died from never having been very healthy to start. I got him in January and he was in way too small a container and clearly not fed for a long time. [/QUOTE]
