So I’m quite new to this and plan on creating a vivarium to house max 6 millipedes, mostly Florida Ivory Millipedes and either Smokey Oaks or Rainbow Millipedes depending on humidity and temp needs
So I’m another newbie with lots of questions and I’ve already done a lot of research on keeping millipedes so I know a fair bit. I’m first concerned about plants in the vivarium. I have a lot of suitable propagations of pothos, arrowhead plants, a few bromeliad pups, lots of rubber plants and more that could easily live with them (and I wouldn’t mind if the millipedes devoured everything). Im worried that the “mother plants” have an unknown past for the most part and might have been sprayed or fertilized which would then transfer through the propagations. Anyone have issues with this?
Im also worried that a 20 gallon long tank filled with at least 6” of substrate would be too big. I would fill it with plants and rotting wood andother features like that. Can you ever have too big?
