I had schefflera plants before but they only lasted about a month, even with watering from the mister. At the moment I just have fabric leaves, but I want to get more real plants. What is the best method for keeping live plants in your enclosure?
I just got back from Petco. I bought some mealworms, waxworms, calciworms and small superworms (thanks Gwen) and got rid of my night light. I also gave the crickets some dark greens. Thank you all so much for your help getting him on track. I'm hoping that he'll grow bigger soon and shed again...
