Since I moved Blob into his new tank about 2 weeks ago, he isn't burrowing completely. He is basically just sitting in a concave hole in the substrate uncovered. I have about 3 inches of substrate for him to burrow in. I have been covering him up a little and when I go back to check on him he is back above the substrate.
He is eating normally and seems ok overall, but just not burrowing. I did add extra plants and he has been hiding under one, could that be a reason that he is not burrowing?
I am including photos of him and his tank:
This is his tank. A 10 gallon fish tank. I have coco fiber substrate, two plastic plants, a water dish (excuse the mess in it, it needed cleaned out today), a heat pad on the side, and an overhead heater with a dimmer and a red 60 watt bulb. I have an Exo Terra Monsoon fogger set up also. I do not have a thermometer or hygrometer at the moment (please do not get angry with me, I know this is a big no-no, I am ordering one offline. I would have one right now, but I wanted to get a really good one and no pet stores had any in stock in-store, I went everywhere this weekend looking for one!!) the one I had broke it was terrible anyway- it was analog.
This is how Blob has been sitting since I moved him.
