After being a broke college student for 4 years, I saved up my grad school stipend to give Hugo the enclosure he truly deserves. Some of you might remember my post from a couple weeks ago asking for tips on making my enclosure. Got the coconut fiber bedding, also found a moss terrarium kit that specialises in trapping moisture, so I used some of that too. It came with a moss vine which im sure he'll love climbing. The moss will help with hugo's penchant to nibble on just about EVERYTHING too. Still looking for something he can hide under. Might try for a nest of tree branches since I don't want it to get too cramped in there. Here's some pics! drive.google.com/folderview?id=1CWHRSwmh1GM9LRqT-LBGhQGSr7UVT_0mHe's currently facing away from the camera but this is also the longest I've seen him stay out of his shell when im not letting him crawl on my leg or somewhere similar. Dipped some of his favorite food, cilantro, in his water dish and let him get acquainted with it. In case anyone's wondering how the mist isn't escaping through the lid, the answer is tape, so much tape. (The fish tanks at petco were too big for my room) The tank is currently at 67° and about 87% humidity. Might open the hatch and let out some mist though. Didn't realise I had the mister on medium fog instead of light mist. Should I try to adjust the temperature and humidity of the tank? EDIT: so apparently the images in the folder don't work on mobile, but if you download them they'll load
