Grapewood, and ROOTS?

This is where you discuss the conditions of your crabitat -- temperature, humidity, substrate, decorating, etc.

Grapewood, and ROOTS?

Post by CharlesMTF » Mon Nov 06, 2017 9:09 pm

I have a nice grapewood piece in the crabitat, and it seems to be growing roots. Anyone have similar issues?

More than likely it is something that your crabs buried that is growing roots

Either way, nothing to be concerned about.

Does the grapewood have roots sprouting from it? (I doubt it, since its meant to be dead.)

By grapewood, do you literally mean like grapevine .... wood? I know that seems like a rediculas question. On an abandoned yard nextdoor, is a dead small grapevine, but close to the ground on both sides is thicker peices. So, is that considered grapewood?
