Thanks for the suggestions. I stopped and grabbed some plantation soil today and probably need one more block to have enough to do the change.
I'll have to order some leaf litter from Josh's and add that in once received.

I'm also planning to add a bottom layer of clay balls to the bottom since I'll haveit tore down to make the substrate change.

Thanks again for the advice.

As a side note: The poor little guy was skinny as anything today and as I was looking at him his stomach blew up like a balloon after eating a cricket. Good sign I believe.

One of my Whites has decided to sleep next to the ballast on the lamp and today he is so brown its like he got a tan. Thank I'm going to have to keep him off of there so he doesn't look like he had a bad day at the beach :-)
