Still no room?

Post by Hermiesguardian » Mon Nov 27, 2017 11:24 pm

I went from a 10g to 15g to 40gb. And STILL not enough room to walk around. So when the molters come up, will they be able to come up? Or keep bumping into things?

Usually they're pretty smart on where to come up when they're ready to

That green container on left has openings on both sides for access through.

It looks quite good! :)

If they run into something when comming up they'll just dig round it. They'll be fine.

Lools fine. At most, id suggest maybe getting some more levels and maybe placing some objects - like the pools or food dish - on the level and leave the sub free...

It doesn't seem like there would be enough verticle room to put the pools higher up. And I don't think they would find the food higher up. Lol.

Trust me, they do. They have an amazing sense of smell not to mention, if they are determined they will make the effort to get to it.
