Hi everyone,
I've just had a small mite outbreak in my two T tanks, so I decided to go for a 100% vermiculite substrate this time - since it won't harbour those little critters. Before I used Coconut Fibre. Are there any advantages/disadvantages of using 100% vermiculite? BTW...I have a B.Vagans and a L.Parahybana. Is misting really that important too? Or can I get away with only doing it pre-molt or something? I do have water bowls in both tanks.
Thanks!
