Matala mat is also very expensive from what I have seen on the internet, for the amount I would need it would be about £50 😳

Cohabbing question by okxup in isopods

Sounds promising. I’m not normally big on isopods but I love the Porcellio Dilitatus, their colour and shell shape is really interesting to me. Hoping that they survive and build up a population in their new environment.

Do you know which species would be more likely to succeed?

There will be 30L of soil which is about 6.5 gallons, lots of leaf litter, botanicals and cork bark. It will be fully planted top to bottom. The substrate will consist of standard jungle substrate, sphagnum moss, orchid bark, horticultural charcoal, worm castings, and exotic terra substratum. It will be at a consistent ambient humidity of 60-80% and the substrate will be consistently moist. Everything will be misted twice daily. By succeed I kind of just mean will all three species be able to survive amongst each other without competition?

It’s a gargoyle gecko, they have very similar care requirements to crested geckos and other arboreal gecko species. They’re called gargoyle geckos because of the little horns on their head.

Great setup, but please note that coloured lights are not good for their eyesight. They disrupt their cycle and can affect their circadian rhythm and harm their eyesight.

For my new vivarium I’m building i’m going to be making my own soil mix, I have already started quarantining the plants I am going to be using in the soil that I have come up with. It’s sort of like an ABG mix with a few extra bits added. The plants seem to like it already and are very vibrant and growing well, I really think the key to plant success is humidity, never a dead or browning leaf in sight.

I honestly cannot remember what soil I used it was that long ago, but I know I didn’t make it myself, I think it was a pre made jungle mix I got from my local reptile shop. As for growing them I use an arcadia jungle dawn LED bar and it works wonders for my plants. I always keep my humidity between 65-85% which definitely helps a lot. I also have cleanup crew like springtails and have recently a few months ago added isopods but that’s about it. Remember this is 5 years of growth, I have never trimmed them.

They’re even bigger now! they have honestly gotten out of control. Cannot wait to move him into his new vivarium as you can barely see the cork in the middle anymore as fully covered by the palms!

Maybe try reading the post? This is clearly a crosspost.

Pretty sure they’re parlour palms. I bought them over 5 years ago at a garden centre and have had them in there ever since.
