Thursday night I noticed this white spot on Vera's back and it just didn't look right. So I pulled her out and got the magnifying glass and sure enough this little white spot was raised, NOT normal. So I took her into the Vet yesterday and sucked it up and dropped some fund-age for the little girl. They first numbed the area then did a scrape to culture it. It came back with bacterial and fungal organisms so she gave me some SSD cream to apply daily until it's gone. So now trying to figure out HOW this happened since I keep the viv clean, the plants were all “safe” before they were put in, change water at least once a day and the temps and humidity have been the same as the other tank, no changes so what happened. Turns out, and I didn't know this, that wild caught moths carry bacterial AND fungal components. That's it, no more wild caught anything for ANYONE!! They'll just have to be happy with roaches, crickets, wax & butter worms. I've tried raising wax worm moths in the past with no luck.
