new millipede need help
looking for : assistance/ info on care and whatelse i can add to his enclosure / how best i can care for him
i recently came into possession of a millipede as a gift from my mother (who has known i’ve wanted one for about 5 years)
i’m in college online so i have a lot of time to care and look after him but my research on the care for the species he was labeled as ( Vietnamese red leg) was very limited
he seems pretty well adjusted but i just want them to live a long and comfortable life
i currently have limited substrate but i have a bulk order coming in today so ideally it’ll be as long as he is in vertical height
other what not : they’re in a 20 gal tank , i mist is twice a day , the soil does not contain any coco or what i believe is harmful, i don’t handle him too much and i keep the lights dim
if anyone has tips for care and things to purchase please let me know i really want to care for him
++last image my dad fed him some avocado ( i removed a lot of it after the photo so he didn’t get full of it and still eat his dirt )
sorry for bad spelling / english i am very tired and walking as of writing this
