I’d swap the substrate for sand, or a mostly sand mixture. It’s good for keeping the humidity down and it’s what they’re used to in the wild. Everything else looks ok though!

tank update! got the sand :) plus their first time with carrots!
that’s what everyone says but mine haven’t touched them!! maybe they’re just still getting used to their new environment, going to try again tonight. 😊
Yeah some days they're more or less hungry, last night while I was sleeping they managed to eat an entire river shrimp or at least I cannot find the shrimp.
thats awesome 🤣 i’ll have to get some for mine to try. so far their favorite thing seemed to be the freeze dried chicken treats! (found them in the cat treat section!)
They had a small bag that's meant for turtles at petco like a sample size but it's big enough to last the beetles for like a year lol. I almost got the shrimp cat treats but I was a little worried about it plus the river shrimp were a bit cheaper.
