Substrate question

[mel262011]

I am putting my RF into a 50 gal or bigger plastic container this week and need to know how deep the cypress needs to be. In her current enclosure she has it 4" deep and she completely buries herself. Please let me know how deep to put it. Thanks!

4" is a good depth.You could go shallower,but I prefer plenty of cypress to hold a reserve of humidity.

Thanks! This doesn't pertain to this topic, but do you know how a RF gets white lines on their shell?

That's probably just natural growth...
