Hey guys,
I have a tegu with Terra Firma dirt from thebiodude as his substrate, mixed with cypress mulch. His humidity is within the range after lots of tweaking, so I don't want to reduce the amount or frequency of how often his misting system runs.
However, there is a lot of water starting to build up with his dirt. It's basically mud at this point, and I see puddles of water in the corners of the tank. I'm worried about oversaturating and having these stagnant pools of water.
Any suggestions for how to fix this oversaturation? Do I just have to scoop out the water periodically?
Any substrates I can add to soak up this water? I've tried ecoEarth, but that just soaked up the water and got mixed up to add to the mud.
Thanks!
