I've just adopted an adult male EWD. Lovely animal. Do you guys feed fruit and vegies to yours? If so, what do you use? Thanks in advance :)
 
I feed mine squash sweet potato blue berries strawberries green beans parsnip raspberries carrot pawpaw leafy greens but no lettuce as its got no nutritional value
 
Yeah Andy, it's the one on Facebook changed it up a bit though will get another picture.

I just have the black ghost knife at the moment, lowered the water level and made more walking areas and such. I got a polystyrene box and filled it with gravel and rocks haven't seen her up there much though

has anyone else noticed that their EWDs swimming under water much?

Ahhhh ghost knives......we have had two........great little fish. Haven't had much luck with them.....think the ph issue got them. Could watch them all day.
 
Changed my paludarium completely, expanda-foam background and I'm hoping I siliconed the barrier properly so then I can put sand in the front and fill it with water! Will upload pictures when it's looking more aesthetic.

I want to get one(or two) but I've heard that juveniles can be difficult to look after and need several feeding a day and quite often need to be force fed. is this true? would I be better off trying to get an older semi-adult, how hard are they(adults)to get hold of? im planning on housing them outside

Juvenile EWD take a lot of time to tame down & can be difficult feeders "they rarely eat in front of people" You'll find that most keepers only feed once daily+ fruit/vege... They are also pretty skidish... i have a 7 month old male who now starting to come out of his shell...

I have spent a lot of time with him & was definitely worth the effort... I would suggest to get a juvenile so as to learn their traits from a young age...

I have a frill neck & bearded dragon. My EWD is def my fav... There's a few keepers on here that can assist with providing you with some helpful info...
