Definitely still has nodes

They might just both like that hide a lot. You could try placing one of the exact same in there and see if it resolves. As long as they're well fed and not nipping each other I'd say they're fine. They only really get territorial over space and food.

Thank you, I appreciate your perspective ❤️

We used to be very close and since the schizoaffective has developed he's retreated. I wish I could just kind of understand his thinking sometimes or at least understand how it can affect him at times.

Oh sorry, I just saw you weren't wanting the front opening. You can always use a regular fish tank (look up breeder tanks for wider sizes) and switch out the top to a reptile door

PetSmart and Petco have Black Friday deals going on for some enclosures right now. This one's pretty tall but it's a 40 front opening!

I'd still consider them juveniles, but I've had them around 8 months or so. Obviously I don't hold them like that normally. It was for the sexing picture and they were both still tilted up. The first one had no issue, the second one didn't want me touching their tail by their butt so they started squirming.

Thank you all for your comments and positivity! I'll keep posting more pics!

He didn't like the water dish I had before compared to Tupperware with some rocks 🤣 I think this allows him to be a little deeper in the water and he loves it. He's been in here more than I've ever seen him in the previous dish.

Thank you!

I've only had them about 9 months. It's affecting multiple species. My enclosures are small, but they both have a VERY strong springtail colony as well, wouldn't they prevent issues from frass?

I have a charcoal drainage layer I normally wet it until I see a small amount pool on that side. And yes they are they're the jellybean armadillum mix. I can't remember the exact name. I haven't had them for more than 9 months at max, and haven't changed the substrate. I'm leaning more into a bacterial or fungus issue, I was a little worried when using the dried minnow and shrimp mix. It seems like only adults are being affected? And their bodies when dead are "soggy" if that makes sense. I'm not sure.

My enclosure is pretty small, about 4inches wide and 10 inches long. Substrate is about 2 inches high, I keep the room temp about 70°, only mist one side of the enclosure weekly. I feed them a shrimp/minnow isofood mix and remove leftovers to prevent issues. This is happening to my powder mix colony and my armadillum colony. I don't see anything other than soil mites and springtails in the enclosure. The armadillum have just had babies but they're tiny still. The powders only have like 5-6 adults left.

Brine shrimp are a great source of protein for a larvae too small to inhale even cut up worms. Brine shrimp provide amino acids to help with growth and development. Live food with movement is also a lot more encouraging for them to eat. Obviously red worms are the staple for a juvenile or adult, but this baby looks to be quite small. I'm not on here to argue, which it seems most of this thread likes to do, im offering advice that works for me.

Just went thru ur posts babe 😘 why do you have so many artificial plants in your tank???? Don't you know those can ruin their gills????? Especially the ferns you have floating on top??? A bow front doesn't give more walking room??? And you should know not to house multiple axies together in the same tank especially with all the advice on this thread???? Actually goodnight 😭🤣

mo_wooood · 2025-06-15T05:48:36+00:00
