I will be adopting a new hermie tomorrow. I am so excited. You would think this is my first.

Gotta get the ISO ready...

I just got my first hermies yesterday (yay!). i bought three (all PPs)- 2 from petco and 1 from petsmart. The petco ones are really healthy, but the petsmart one is missing half of 2 of its legs.

its also really slow, but the only one i could find that had all 6 limbs. i really hope it survives (but im pretty sure it will)

Hey WizKidsMom, What's an ISO?

WizKidsMom · 08-05-2008, 12:44 PM

An ISO is an isolation tank. This is to just make sure she is not sick and to get use to the new environment.
It is a small 10 gallon set up the same as my main tank. Right now the humidity is real low as that was her (Evvy) environment. (and fed commercial food as well

)
I will slowly bring the humidity up to what my main tank is, then after a salt water bath, she will go in the main tank.

I was surprised at how friendly she was. Right now she is climbing over everything checking it out.
