Hey Nevin-- glad to see a familiar face on this board.

AFT's love and pretty much require belly heat, not sure if you mentioned that in your post. In our experience, our AFT's appitite doubled with 85-90* belly heat. She does not require an over head heat lamp because of this. Also, have you had your wild caughts tested for parasites/viri or were they vet checked before you aquired them?



A varity of hides are also helpful, especially if you are housing two females in a small enviroment...I've read in several books on AFT's that the min. requirement is about 10g per AFT-- however, our AFT is pretty spoiled with a 20g (long)and I do not have experience with small set ups and how the AFT would react.



Cheers and good luck,





Cat
