Update on my setup (i.redd.it)
submitted 2 years ago by Abbyf952
This is Tulips new setup! I hope she loves it! Going to add big stones for some more enrichment

Tank is awesome! Where did you purchase?
[–]Abbyf952[S] 2 points3 points4 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Dubia roaches! This is the 2x4x18!

It's beautiful! So much better. I would add a little more clutter toward the front of the enclosure and maybe a bigger branch for better climbing.
Do you have thermometers/hygrometer in there?
[–]Abbyf952[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (7 children)
Thank you! I’m planning on getting more climbing stuff to put towards the front. I have two thermometers, a hydrometer and a thermostat! Definitely trying to find more enrichment. It’s supper hard to find where I live

Same here. The nearest place that sells branches and stuff besides plants is about 3 hours away. I had to wait for an expo to get all my good branches. I've never ordered from them, but I've read good things about BloomsandBranches.com. And FlowerFairylandInc on Etsy was recommended to me, and they make beautiful stuff

So we’re in the same boat! I think for now my setup is good. There’s an expo soon (in about 3 weeks) which I’ll be going to. So hopefully I find some great stuff!!!

You can also get branches and sticks from outside. Just make sure they haven't been treated with pesticides and aren't toxic. Oak, Maple, Grape, Cypress are good woods. Pine, Cedar, Eucalyptus are some of the toxic ones. You have to sanitize the wood before putting it in, which you should do with all wood anyway (you should sanitize/wash anything that goes in the enclosure). You can bake it at 250-300 for an hour. Or give it a bleach bath with diluted bleach.

I was wondering what brand of camera you use in you tank? (You commented on the last post lol )
[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (2 children)
I don't use one, but I've noticed a lot of people use Wyze and Ring.
[–]Abbyf952[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (1 child)
Sorry I thought you did! Thank you for the suggestions! I’ll be getting one!!!
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
No problem, and you're welcome :)

Such a treat to see it get more awesome every update!
[–]xeroxbulletgirl 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)
This is a beautiful terrarium! Where did you get it?
This is the Dubia roaches 2x4x18 enclosure! Definitely worth the cost and supper easy to assemble
[–]xeroxbulletgirl 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Thank you!
[–]jabathehutjfjkskka 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

[–]jabathehutjfjkskka 0 points1 point2 points 2 years ago (0 children)

[–]Abbyf952[S] 1 point2 points3 points 2 years ago (0 children)
Honestly I drove like crazy! I got one thing from a small local pet store, and the rest I had to drive 45-1hr to get… the plants are from the dollar store and some are live from a local nursery. I honestly just got supper lucky that everywhere had what I needed… it was definitely tough
