[QUOTE="octanejunkie, post: 192108, member: 3872"] That enclosure is too large. Your T may be stressed because he/she feels exposed, insecure in a big glass box with no place to hide. Get a 32oz deli cup. Poke a bunch of holes in it all around and one or two in the lid. Put an inch or so of substrate in, pack it down. A slab of diagonal cork bark, some moss, a few plastic or silk leaves and a water dish. See pic. [ATTACH type="full" alt="16165565241661879421075807678874.jpg"]55054[/ATTACH] Moisten the substrate somewhat, tansfer your T and put the container in a low traffic part of your house that's warm-ish (72-78° F) with a modicum of airflow, not stagnant air, not too humid. Then leave it be for a day or so. [/QUOTE]
