They're both doing great today! Cleaned out their tanks and they seem to like it. Rhark is getting chubby...but she's still really active. Is there a limit on how much I should be feeding them? Lately I've just been offering a few at a time and if they want more I give them more until they stop eating.

That's great to hear that they are doing a lot better. Sounds like they love their new lights. Did you get the probe thermometers yet? If so, what did you find for their tank temps?

You should be feeding them 2 to 3 times a day and all they can eat each time in about a 10 to 15 min timeframe. How many crickets are they each eating in a day now?

Yes, I got the thermometer a couple days ago. It's a Digital Infrared Thermometer by Zilla. The basking temps are 104 degrees and the cool end is 74-75 degrees.

They're eating a lot for their size...especially Rhark, she eats 8-12 crickets over the whole day. Zepik will eat 7 or 8 and he usually doesn't eat them until late afternoon times.

Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
