Did a quick forum search and couldnt see anything like this posted yet so hopefully im all clear.
I have 5 centipedes (2x Ethmostigmus Rubripes, 1x Cormocephalus Aurantipes, 2x Scolopendra Morsitans), and each one is doing fine and growing well. But my only issue is i dislike that they live in nothing but a container filled with substrate, buried hides and a water dish. I have tried in the past to make nice looking setups for them but particularly the Ethmostigmus just excavate everything and bury all the decorations under an inch of substrate. I wish to give them a more natural setup but without it being uprooted in the first week.
If you use more stable and solid subtrate than cocopeat, would they be more inclined to use a set burrow instead of constantly making new ones?
Is there a certain kind of substrate that any of you have found works well for this?
Are there any other ways to stop them tearing everything apart?
Thx for any tips
