I got a viatnamese centipede from a reptile expo a couple of months ago, and I had a few questions about maintenance.
First, how often should I completely change the substrate? I use eco earth and sphagnum moss, and its in a 10 gallon tank if that helps with coming up with an answer.
Second, how do I safely move the centipede from the tank to change the substrate without being bitten? I've read that their bite can be pretty bad, and I'd like to avoid that at all costs.
Included a pic because I'm not 100% sure of the species. The dealer just said it was a "vietnamese yellow legged centipede."
