[QUOTE="spodermin, post: 150418, member: 29048"] Wait a week or two after it molts because the fangs will be soft and can be damaged. They need to harden up before it can eat after molting. You'll know because the fangs will turn jet black when it's ready. Here are pictures of both red/pink fangs and black fangs. Whoever told you a large enclosure can stress them out is incorrect. You certainly don't need a big enclosure and most keepers air on the small side for this reason, (having 100 full sized aquariums would be infeasible for most) but they live most happily in the wild, which is literally infinite roaming space.
