So I went to a petstore today and noticed they had a small terrarium with a female and male brev inside. When I went up to it I noticed that the male brev was fully submerged in the water staring at me. I told the petstore owner that I thought her pygmy was drowning and she told me that for some reason, a few times a day the male brev just hangs out about an inch under water. So I went back and watched him for at least another 2 minutes and finally he popped his head above the water for a little bit, then decided to go back down. While under the water he looked around and moved as if he was on dry land. Finally after about 10 minutes he climbed up the little plant he was on and started wondering around. Has anyone else ever heard of such a thing?

No that is a first for me. I've never seen a Brev submerge underwater strange.

I've got a young jacksonii that I caught soaking when it was around 3 months old. I forgot the mister was on and came back to an inch or more of water standing and slowly leaking out of the cage. The baby was completely submerged, except for the top of the head and tried to bite me when I reached in to pick it up. It was holding onto the screen with one foot and could have climbed out of the water if it wanted to.
