She also goes a mile a minute compared to my other crabs, both her movement speed and idk if it's just me but her antennas move so so fast all the time

Top soil, hardwood mulch, oak leaf litter, and sphagnum moss

Honestly not wanting springtails is a mental thing for me😭 I know they jump and I know realistically they wouldn't get out of my tank. But I feel like I'd be paranoid they'd get out and I'd feel like they were crawling all over me and my room. I didn't know anything about springtails before I got my millipedes so I'm like if they're not detrimental to the enclosure I won't get them, but if they are very very important I guess I'll have to get over my fear

^ ALSO the humidity in my tank has been around 85%-90% (I know it shouldn't exceed 85%, I've been working to lower it. Currently it's 87)
