[QUOTE="Steph1304, post: 210018, member: 38180"] Only other info I can think to give is tank is a constant 24C during the day and drops to 19.5C at night. I use a dechlorinator to treat the tap water before I put it in the bowl, 1 drop per 500ml. Diet has been meal worms which she would take and I have offered crickets but she refused them. I've had the meal worms since 12th January and I feed the worms with cricket pellets and the fruit jel. I always check the meal worms are healthy and active before I introduce them. Tank is 29cm diameter and I overfil the waterbowl once a week so approx 50ml goes onto the soil. If the water evaporates during the week I pipette a little more into the bowl but am careful not to overfill. No flysprays, flea treatments, or scented candles in the house (I have kept tropical fish for 20 years so know how hazardous they can be). Any cleaning I do in the office is with antibacterial wipes and never near the tank. [/QUOTE]
