i currently have 40x20x25 for 3 pedes and yeah its just not big enough ive always wanted a new one but the best i can find are these glass ones with like no ventilation. but i bought one anyway cause space is important and i can do things to help ventilation

so i have these asian arboreal millipedes of varying size(the middle is photoshopped in in case it looks too seamless :P) and i am in asia, in a subtropical area, so at least ambient humidity is quite high and have not been an issue so far

first issue is the front door, so i got a piece of glass 35cm tall and imma attach it to the front to hold in the approx 30cm substrate

but imma get a fan automated to periodically pull air out(planned 10 seconds every 4 hours but ill check how it works first)

and i hope to one day replace the glass fromt door with a custom mesh one? but i dont think itll be easy so ill see how the fan works.

for substrate im doing humus soil mixed with crushed rotwood and leaf litter, with the top 10cm having more leaf litter and some calcium powder.

im gonna put a tube down to the bottom cause i think its important to have a way to do that, and for my humus soil it doesnt get muddy. i do mist personally daily so ill see how it does before getting a automated mister or idk.

as for the top vertical space i have no plans yet cause i wanna get the base set and done first, its heavy as hell so i wanna be careful

so iwanna ask people with experience and knowledge for some advice and comments!!!

wiggle wiggle

i witnessed 3 molts in 2 days B-)

new Alienostreptus bicoloripes(i think) i got

im thinking this is a not fully mature male(they are about 21 cm already) but im not sure and want to ask

at first i think its male because of a slightly larger 7th segment and missing legs, but on the bottom side it doesnt have visible big gonopods like my other male millipede. also it seems its also got missing legs after like 3 pairs?? is that something everypede has or indication for female??

in their tiny cat dish. shot on my phone so i tried my best for a good resolution and view :D

drilled extra holes in my lil box and i also heard they require a specific varied diet so i bought some lichen, rot wood, and special food just for them i hope they live good.
