I actually ordered my pair from Dan Scolaro of DTSherp, INC. The pair cost me $125.00. Which was $45.00 less then what I was being offered by another dealer.

I'd recommend Dan whole heartidly if anyone is interested in these guys.

I am surprised they arrived alive, check the fauna classifieds on that guy.

Glad you got them in good shape though.

Pretty crazy. I used to do a lot at faunaclassfieds but moved on a few years ago. Seems like some have had issues with him in the past, but I can only comment on my experience that I just had. The animals arrived fast, the packaging was excellent and the critters were in great condition.

Glad such was the case. Thanks for the information though!

Here ya go. Nothing too elaborate, but all in all, I think they like it thus far haha.

cool. Do you ever see them soaking? I have read some care sheets that say they like to stay dry but humid and others that say they will almost constantly soak and swim around...

Not quite yet, heh. So far all they do is hide. They'll sit there with their heads peakin' out of the hides, then the minute I move ***BAM*** they're gone hahaha. I too have heard that they LOVE to soak, but so far, not mine... :)
 
Great pick up! I've wanted to get a pair of these guys for ages now. One of these days I want to turn a 40 gallon breeder into a river tank for a few.
 
hi ragnew, I need help, I just bought a pair of these guys and both r ready to breed, but I'm concern with the temperature in my tank, my hygrometer points at 80% of humidity which is suitable after I've done some research, but my thermometer sets at 30-31 degrees of Celcius, I've read that it needs to be around 22-27 degrees of Celcius for the egg's temperature in order to fertilize, do you know how I can drop this temperature? I've regularly mist the tank but so far the thermometer shows no significant changes, is it because of my substrate? I'm using coco-peat
