thanks for the complement on the set up. the plants are fake as i know pacmans can be brutal with trampling. that gauge is the only gauge thats on the top. its the one for humidity, i put it there before i realized the lower portion of the tank was the place to put them. it has a sticky back so the only way its coming off is if it never gets stuck to anything again. its there pretty securely, so i just leave it. however her infrared temp setter has a gauge that i suction to the bottom portion as well as the thermometer. as far as spraying her, i was only softly misting her, and i would NEVER use distilled. i only use polland spring and once in a blue as a back up, i use tap water that has been treated for chlorine with a solution AND by sitting for 48 hrs or more
shes must be a female because shes so much attitude lol

shes pretty tolerant of me, once in a blue if my hand is in the tank adjusting something or catching crickets to replace in front of her shell start the process of burying herself so ill just leave it at that cover her and give her her space than shell stop burying and relax. my only real thing is trying to get her to stop using the bathroom under ground so i can clean it. but as long as i keep reg. maintenance on her tank i think itll be fine. i think i may put her on the scale so i can keep track of her weight to make sure shes doing alright and groing strong. My wife seems to think shes plumped up a bit in the month shes been home.
