hi, my axie had some health issues in the past but he’s been doing good, i just had to switch up his diet and stay more on top of checking parameters! i’ve been feeding him earthworms and he’s been great. i ran out, and for the past couple of days i’ve been using some frozen bloodworms. today, his poop is long and stringy, and he seems a little constipated. i’m guessing this could be from the change in his diet. ammonia is 0 ppm, nitrates are 5 ppm, nitrites are 0 ppm. can i do anything to help this besides going back to earthworm? it looks uncomfortable for him

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
