If he is molting lots, then I wouldn't worry about him being in the water at all. Gherkin molts every two weeks or so, and for three days before and three days after, he is in the water. And leaves a stinky mess behind, I might add!

That must have been a sight to see! Both my males have stretched up to the top and managed to lift the lid of their setup...Obi doesn't have the stretch, but she can move from one end of her setup to the other in a flash, so she hold her own.
