HAHA. Seems as though neither of us have enough to do...Damn, Usambara! Beat me to the punch that time! :}
Travis,
Sand...no way in my opinion.......I would use Eco-earth substrate.....and not moist....as dry as possible....put in a water dish and you are set. When you get a rosires substrate moist.....they hate it and start climbing.....robi have her on sand..
someone told me to try to keep it moist though?
should it be dry?
For housing, use dry substrate (eco earth or bedabeast, some sort of coco fiber) and provide a hide with a water dish.
I keep my rosie (adult female) in a large kritter keeper with about 3'' - 4'' of DRY bed-a-beast for substrate
I've always housed mine in an at least 5.5gal critter keeper or aquarium with 3/4 the cage full of bone dry 100% peat moss, with a hide and water dish.

i changed out her substrate yesterday. she is in vermiculite now, hopefully she will like it a lot more
I agree. I've always used peat moss and never had any problems. Back when i first joined this forum everyone agreed on peat moss....There is NOTHING WRONG with peat moss, leave the huge text at home. I use peat for all my Ts, moist or dry as species needs, and have done so for a couple years now. No problems, no complaints.
