Really strange one here
I have noticed what looks like white powder on top of the substrata in places and under my L Para's hide / log the weird thing is it fluoresces under a green light! Oh er missus
very pretty it may be, thousands of pin*****s of light but is this likely to be some form of fungus / mould starting
I have dropped the humidity from 80% down to about 60% over the last month and increased ventilation and the spider seems a lot happier and more active than she was in high humidity as the air was getting stale and its only since then this white powder has appeared
could it be dead fungus now the humidity has dropped ?
Like i say the spider has never been more active and happy than she is at the moment so its not effecting her in any way, but should i play safe and change the substrata ( currently about 4 months old ) completely even though she will sulk for ages
Any thoughts
