Hey guys. I have a scolopendra polymorpha coming in through the mail from pinchers and pokies tomorrow. I was reading some things about them online and had a few questions for you guys.
1. how do they stay hydrated in the wild? Do they get the water from the insects they eat, or from real water?
2. How moist does their moist side have to be?
3. How often and how much should I feed it?
4. Do they dig tunnels, or do they bury themselves like crabs? if they make tunnels, What happens if it collapses on them?
5. is there any specific care for a molting pede?
6. How can I ventilate my 10 gallon tank? Would a screen top be enough? How important is ventilation?
I have a 10 gallon tank with 3 inches of ecoearth and 2 inches of sand on top. Unfortunately, the sand is not dry. Would this be a problem for him? Otherwise, i have a little bin with some really dry sand. I wanted to wait for your answers on humidity before making one side of the dry bin more humid.
