So I finally sorted out a faunarium and substrate to keep the millipedes I'm going to be getting however I'm a little worried about the temperature. My houses temp doesn't stay consistent to say the least and I'm worried the temperature changes won't be very good for them (sometimes even I can feel the cold in my feet) so was wondering if I bought just a basic pet heat pad with the adjustable gauge and put it next to the faunarium (not on it just next to it) would that be enough for them on colder days?
Also aside from the substrate (I've got cocoa fiber and some orchid bark to mix into it, possibly 70-30 cocoa/bark) and the obvious misting bottle and cuttlefish bone anything else I should be getting? Also would mixing a small amount of calcium powder into the substrate be ok or should I keep that a separate thing?
