How long to let the Viv settle and who has Pygmys for sale in the next month or so?

So after I have planted the viv added some springtails etc, is there a time to let the plant life and reach some equilibrium before adding the cham inhabitants or are they needed to maintain the springtail/isopod colony.

I am really excited about this project.

Is there a member who has pygmys for sale? Hoping for CB and only finding WC online right now. Looking to have 1 male and 2 females. I am open to any type.

It's good to let it cycle for about a month. You'll see little spider web like mold, fungus, gnats, fungi, and another things that will go away. The month will allow rooting, growth, and the micro fauna will breed.
There's a few people who have bred pygs on here and you can message them but they will probably only have one group so they'll most likely be related and you don't want to inbreed.

I guess I really should buy them from different breeders/sellers to do my best to be sure I have unrelated males/females.

I will take some pics once it is set up. I have everything all ready but decided to wait until I move next week to plant it.

there is a pygmy breeder here in Oregon called VooDoo Chameleons. You can google him. John really knows his stuff. I just bought 1 male and two females from him last weekend. There are so cool.

You aren't using coco fiber, right?
