so my Buthacus arenicola died this morning. not sure why. just wondering if anyone here has had any problems with this species not eating properly and basicly self terminating.
i only had one of these guys. around 3" total length. he would ONLY eat fruit flies. would not eat crickets, mealworms, superworms, or dubias of any size. i tried everything. he would eat up flightless fruit flies though. every week-10 days i would offer him water and he would drink like no other.
based on your guys' ecperiences, just wondering if this species is a sensitive species and hard to maintain or if mine just got old and died.
