Hi
My big S. subspinipes has pretty much died it appears. Can anyone tell me why he died? I kept it in a large aquarium with 5 inches of peat moss, a log to hide under, a water dish, I kept the substrate moist, and I fed him usually 2 large crickets once a week. He then just recently molted and then appears to be dead or close to it. Probably wild caught as well because when the shipment came in, he was already 6-7 inches. All my captives are only an inch or 2. Did I do something wrong in caring for him? Did the molt kill him? Or was it just his time?
Cheers
