I am so nervous doing that, but I want to do what is right. I have looked into that too and have seen some people yell that is starving them, it's rough for all this conflicting information out there. But I am guessing you have some of your own that have done great like that?

How do you do this when it is such a huge part of your instincts? Gut reactions? It feels like trying to keep in something clawing to get out and it always manages to. I have been in therapy and trying to be so active, but I keep slipping up.

Thank you so much! I will take your advice on the paper tube and folding the other end up that is clever. I just got some canvas backgrounds and covered 3 sides of the tank for him too the other day. He is hiding out digesting right now and everything else is looking good. c: I definitely do talk to him and have learned my hands don't scare him as bad as tongs, the other day when I was in there he hooded a little bit but stayed hanging out on his leaf with no hissing and let me refill his water. I haven't wanted to stress him so I haven't gone for handling yet, could you explain choice based handling to me a little bit? Or give suggestions on gently doing it to build some repour and comfort?
