[QUOTE="helenaoskars, post: 226761, member: 42709"] I have two Venezuelan Suntigers, and their new enclosures just arrived. I’ve bought the Exo Terra Mini Tall, and am currently waiting for a replacement acrylic top to keep them safe from getting stuck. My questions are: 1) I’ve filled the enclosures with substrate up to the door, and added a root, a ladder (yes, I know they don’t need ladders, but it’s cute) and a fake plant to climb on. Do I need more in there than that? I plan on keeping the moisture up of course, by spraying the ground and the sides of the enclosure. 2) How many cm should their bodies be before they can thrive in their new homes? It is 30•30 cm, and their bodies (not counting legs) last time I saw them were maybe 2-2.5 cm. (They usually hide under ground.) They currently live in circular plastic boxes that are about 7 cm across and 10 cm tall. According to the people I bought it from, it should stay in there until it is grown. That feels like it would be WAY to crammed as far as I can tell.. Will 30•30cm be too big for now? I don’t want them hurting themselves.. Thank you for any answers. [/QUOTE]
