Re: Non-eater for 2 months

We got ours on Ebay and promptly threw out our dial thermometers as they were as much as 10degrees out.

Re: Non-eater for 2 months

I would also suggest covering all sides of the tank until he eats. At the very least cover the back and two sides with something he probably feels to vulnerable with all the sides open.

Re: Non-eater for 2 months

Ok, I'll flip the hide-- I'll try taping black construction paper on the sides of the tank too.

I need to wait for my paycheck to get a thermometer, I'm broke as **** fdgkljdflkg
