Hi, I do have a nice stick in the tad aquarium half in ,half out. They do come up on it. But I've seen them go back down to the bottom and drown too. Sorry but I'm not stupid-two, 2 degrees in science ! I of course was misting them 2x a day. And I have half an inch of water in the tupperware unit, with sphagnum moss and live plants.too. HECK I 'd like to live in there!!! Thanks for you input.
