Hi Friends,
I've moved the babies into their new home. It's 8 x 3 x 2 ft. Substrate is coco coir. Lights are 12%uvb fluorescents in back and double 6400 t5 ho bulbs in front.
Plants are mix of real and plastic/silks.
Torts are almost 1 year old ibera. There are 3.
2 of the torts are great. One paces.
1. Can you guys help me figure out why one is pacing? Do I need more visual barriers?
2. My humidity was too high for ibera, so I'm letting the substrate dry out. As it dries, it's crumbling as they walk--sort of giving way under their legs. Should I add something to make it more firm?
3. Could 2 6400 bulbs and 1uvb bulb be too bright?
Enclosed are pics from inside the enclosure. There are cameras at each end.
Thanks in advance for any help!
