I always forget the name of these ones but they are my favorite little guys to see around my bins! Saw her wondering around the top and was trying to lure her onto the paper towel to get a good pic for a solid minute XD
Anyways just wanted to share the pretty little lady! Hope someone also finds joy in watching them just be pretty
Hello! I am not a springtail breeder and unfortunately don't know much about them. Recently was told I had a bunch in my snake tank and my isopod tank! Very happy news for me since I didn't have to buy them.
Unfortunately I have to clean my snake tank as soil gnats came in with the season and got into the tank, so it needs a deep clean, which involves some dirt washing and light baking. I am rather sure this might kill off despite people saying they're pretty hardy! Is there anyway I can still clean the dirt without killing them? Or at least mitigate as much as possible? Or will they be fine and I'm overreacting?
Apologies if there's nothing I can do, and much appreciation for any advice, especially that might help save them. Thank you for your time💚
(Also very very sorry if this breaks rule 2, I don't want to kill them and you guys seemed like the best place to go. Absolutely understand and will take down/not reupload if it gets taken down if it does break the rule)
