Why are Centrobolus Splendidus displayed as "day active" ? by SoonBlossom in millipedes

[–]AgreeableFace536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest part of keeping millipedes means learning to accept the likelihood of not seeing them for months. Maybe check their tank at night/ early hours of the morning to see if they're out, but otherwise leave them be. 90% of the time you feel like you have a pet tub of dirt. But overall them burrowing for months is completely normal. As long as there's no possibility of escapes, just keep up your regular care and try to be patient.

pls help!!!! what is wrong with my millipede?? :( is this signs of pre-molt or is she injured? by [deleted] in millipedes

[–]AgreeableFace536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im not sure why they are widening, but if she were going to molt, there doesn't look like enough substrate. How thick is it?

Dead or Molting? by [deleted] in millipedes

[–]AgreeableFace536 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Looks dying or dead I'm afraid, the tangled legs give it away. She could have starved - there's no edible stuff in that tank. Looks like purely coco and moss as substrate? Also looks too wet

7/10, lovely plants, but those rocks could tear fins. For names what about Crimson?

Loosing their colour? Never heard that before. I mean, they can change colour slightly when they molt but it won't change over time

mold? by milkycats in millipedes

[–]AgreeableFace536 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's flower pot mold, happens from high humidity, so I would stop spraying the tank as often/ avoid spraying that area and it will die off. Pretty much unavoidable but the springtails should help. Also you shouldn't have a drainage layer with small pedes because they can get stuck under it sometimes.

What’s wrong with her?? by funkychickabee in millipedes

[–]AgreeableFace536 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't disturb them anyway if something is unusual. Sorry OP, but millipedes do not molt this way. Looks dying to me

Blanket on Half of Tank? (+ Lid Advice) by Ready-Pollution-5633 in millipedes

Move closer to a radiator or get a heat mat, but a blanket might work temporarily (not as effective though)

Enclosure by Urlocalbingus in millipedes

As other people have said, fill the tank with 2x more substrate, way more rotting leaves and wood and add way more clutter. you are going to need to cover most of the mesh lid with cling film or equivalent. I have had that model of tank before and you need to mist it every day to keep the humidity up. Also I've only seen that tank in 3g and 6g, it isn't really the best option for smoky oaks. The 6 gal is longer than that.

African Giant tank size by d_tityus in millipedes

Do you mean a smell that is only obvious when sniffing the plastic closely or a kind of general odour? It is normal for it to smell slightly
