Message: <blockquote data-quote="Eighth Eye Blind" data-source="post: 242229" data-attributes="member: 49683">What Trooper said.In the wild, G. pulchripes lives in a wide, wide range of habitats. The Chaco region is a mix of tropical and subtropical areas that go through cycles of wet and dry seasons with lots of varying eco-regions and micro-climates scattered about. This T is found pretty much everywhere in the northern part of the Chaco so it's going to be happy with anything from semi-arid to semi-tropical.As Trooper said, most people are going to keep them a little drier if for nothing else than to avoid problems with mold. Just don't let it get drier than Afghanistan or wetter than the Phillipines and you'll be fine (and even it you do go overboard one way or another the T will probably not even notice).</blockquote>
