First post! I had to undo the enclosure and dry out the soil with a hair dryer more for my A. Chalcodes. Hoping the soil is sufficiently un-wet so mold won’t grow because it appeared a couple times. What do ya’ll think? This is my first T so I’m open to tips and suggestions.

Add some more dirt so the distance from the Top to Bottom is lessened in case of a Fall from Above.

1 and a half times the leg span for safe fall to the substrate.from the top of the enclosure for a soft landing.

Way more substrate and I wonder if you have enough ventilation. Enjoy your T.

You did a great job, it looks really nice. Just more substrate and you're good 👍

fill 1/2 that tank with dirt. Inset the bark hide at an angle and dig a bit of a burrow. As others have said, Fall Hazard. Your T can climb that bark to the top and then fall and hit some of those hard surfaces which can be fatal
