I keep my E. muelleri with a hot spot around 100F on aspen. My two biggest females were picked up at a Florida show as fresh imports and took to F/T mice with ease...
What are your temps?
I tried sand for a while and they didn't do as well IMO. Aspen has worked best and I use slightly damp vermiculite when I am expecting 'eggs'.
Cool end temp is in the mid to upper 70's with warm side temp at ~100F.



Best of luck,
Chris
