Damn a house call sounds great lol.

Oh no please don't think I'm a terrible person. My brother didn't turn the heat matt off when we took it off the 75 gal tank to transfer her to a 20 gal tank and left it on folded on itself hence melting I read a 75 gal was too big for my small baby .

I usually let her chill in the bath for like 15 minutes before I add the dawn to try to lessen any chance of her drinking the soapy water. The qtip is a great idea. I have claws haha.

Awe thanks I think you might appreciate me more than my brother lmfao. When she first wasn't eating that was the first thing I learned. Petco told my brother she was eating FROZEN pinkys. Absolutely not. I got a lot of the mites off her and fed her live fuzzy/crawlers the first few because she was super weak and under weight so I wanted her to have something easy until she got her strength up then went bigger now she's eating like a champ. I'm just glad we ended up with her. Even though it's a lot of work I feel like she would have died either from starvation or the mites.

Wish me luck! Thanks again I really appreciate you. I will probably have more questions for you as I go.
