Just thought I'd share some pics of some pretty nice web...although I feel the pics don't do her justice {D ... she's matted down the floor completely and made kind of an igloo out of the vines shes pulled together. the shiney stuff is water, we just misted. enjoy!

for one thing theres not enough dirt for her to burrow, 2nd they can take to hides given to them and the will do web funnles around and inside there hide but mostly they burrow so take her out and give her 4-6" of dirt and pre start a hole for her (if you want) but they will dig there own and 2nd it's looks to dry in there, they like it moist and humid... but to each his/her own just thinking of the T :D

1st: we had her in 6-8" of dirt with pre made hides and she could care less to burrow or use them, she made her own and shes happy. we transfered her to this tank and she did all that in about 2 days and hasn't burrowed even 1" into the substrate so i think shes ok.
2nd: the humidity in her tank stays around 75-80%. i know the dirt looks dry but thats because of the "mat" i mentioned above...all the water just sits on it and collects in the leaves so any wetter and we'd have mold issues.
Finally: i posted the pictures out of pride for my HAPPY animal, i didnt ask a what-am-i-doing-wrong question. i'm no expert, but we been doin this a little while and all our t's are happy so thanks but no thanks for the advice.
