In that case I'd just keep it like the rest of the genus until you can find info that says otherwise. Looking up where the species is endemic to gives some insights but I'd imagine good burrowing sub that is kept moist would do the trick, my Filipino species seem to enjoy that setup.

I've yet to hear of an Asian terrestrial that shouldn't have moist substrate and moderate ventilation. There aren't care sheets for every species, nor should there be, as what's out there is bad enough as it is.

As Poec said because this species comes from Thailand you just need moist substrate and moderate ventilation. Also make sure the you have deep enough substrate so it can burrow, I haven't seen any Asian terrestrial species who doesn't like to burrow yet.

I am going to spend some time in Koh Samui in May so I will surely look out for these beauties.
