There is something happening - some kind of understanding between my Cham and I and I am not sure what it means to him, but there is something there. As in a tolerance and approval of my presence as opposed to him being offended at the sight of me at the start and running for cover when I would...
Fungus gnats (small black flies) are a real bugger. I have poison for them for my house plants but of course a no-no for a plant in a cham cage. Piglett79 is right, they cannot live in dry sand and they only live in the first inch or so of the pot so a layer of sand will keep them away. I...
