Most wc imports do poorly if kept at the humidity levels one usually reads about in current literature! They do not require high humidity levels to thrive - actually high humidities will result in recurring upper resp. disorders that can kill in a matter of days! Best to keep them at no more than 30% humidity w/the afore mentioned temp. gradients being accurate. Increase humidity levels a week or so before putting the sexes together and maintain for two weeks sfter that(when attempting to induce breeding). If you want to keep wc Goynosomas long term - deparasite heavily on a consistent basis for two months and unless breeding keep them semi-arid. Bill
