Message: <blockquote data-quote="IMAGINE1391" data-source="post: 146456" data-attributes="member: 28125">So my T. Stirmi has been hiding under its log hide for about 3 weeks now. It has not came out at all and has even closed itself in for the most part by building up the entrance with substrate. Meanwhile, there is a considerable amount of mold growing on said log hide. I introduced Springtails into the enclosure about a week ago and I haven’t seen any of the Springtails since. The mold certainly hasn’t gone away and it’s actually growing more. I’m afraid to disturb the T because it’s almost acting like it could be in premolt and I don’t even know how I’d go about getting that log hide out of there. I would like to get it out and put some cork bark in instead. Please help me!</blockquote>
