Well, first off i would like to say hello. My name is Mitch, i am thirteen years old, i keep reptiles, rats, and my tiger salamander. I joined this forum because i want to learn more about these cool animals, get knowledge about axolotls (wich i plan on getting one of), and Possibly learn how to do a bioactive enclosure for my tiger salamander, boots.
I currently have boots in a ten gallon tank with sphagnum moss, a water dish, and a hide, but i want to give boots a nice burrowing substrate with poop eaters and plants, to make it more aesthetically appealing and give boots an nicer, more stimulating place to live.
Now, for the plants and poop eaters... i don't want to use worms (although i use these as a main diet when i take boots out for feeding) because of the risk of boots attacking one and swallowing substrate or moss, and i know most plants get destroyed pretty easily by tiger sals.
Has anyone done this? Does anyone have any advice?
Regards,
Mitchell.
