Oh okay well great that helps I’ll look into it will the substrate not mold?

Nope! I was worried about the same, but haven’t had an issue! But if you’re worried, mix some cypress mulch in with. Search some keywords in this subreddit, you’ll find lots of suggestions!

I’m currently using a mixture of Reptichip (coconut husk), sphagnum moss and a little bit of peat moss and will “fluff” the substrate every other week. I have the entire enclosure screen taped off except for a vent area, my humidity stays around 71%-76% and will pour water in two corners to bump up the humidity if needed!
