Hello everyone, my name is Gryphken.
I'm new here and I'm so glad I discovered this site, finally I can exchange knowledge concerning Forstenii's.
To start off for my first thread, I would like to ask some questions.
Havn't found all the answers yet true the search function, so here I go!
Q1: I'm planning on rebuilding my 2y old Fortenii's Terrarium, I want to build a platform so I can expand he's living area a bit.
Any idea's which materials won't get moldy? I was thinking about styrofoam. Like the backgrounds some people have to imitate rock. Just hope he's not going to bite pieces out of it.
Q2: A very important one, what sort of lights do I need for sure and how long do I let them on?
Untill now I gave him natural supplements, but I have the idea that light would work better on him, he's still kind off small. So I guess I need UVB, anything else ... ?
Q3: The water spraying isn't working for me like it should, it dry's out very fast.
So I was thinking of buying a fog-machine, does anyone has experiance with this on Forstenii's?
How do they react to it?
Will it get to moisted? Cause I don't want to damage my little friend's shield.
How long should I turn it on?
And what's a good humidity-level?
The fog-machine I'm planning to buy: SuperFog Nano - Lucky reptile
Q4: He loves to climb stuff, but instead of taking a safe route down again, he always let himself fall off hights. Any ideas why he does that?
Thanks in advance,
Gryphken
