Re: Introducing Orko
That's a great, multifunctional hide. They seem to like unglazed terracotta hides.

They are not so easy to find which is a shame.

Re: Introducing Orko
Flower pots. The one Scottie has in the playground is Trixie. I was tempted to put it in his cage but am not brave enough after his last reaction when i changed something. He uses everything in his cage and seems to like it as it is.

That is a good idea. I agree it may be best not to move Scotties to his cage after last time.

Where do you buy flower pots without a drainage hole from? Any I see have a hole at the bottom which could pose a risk even if I were to seal it.

Re: Introducing Orko
I'd try places like Hobbycraft. I never saw the hole as a risk because it's so small and a pot is used lying on its side. A piece of dowelling could be cut to size to block it off.

Thank you for the tip. I remember looking everywhere for flower pots without holes when I had betta fish but never found any.

Re: Introducing Orko
Now that Orko is more active it takes me a lot longer to go through the camera footage. It is wonderful to see him so happy and busy. I notice he has a new game. He runs into his sand jar and then runs out again. I have a clip of it. He must have done that about 6 times last night.

The next video shows Orko pottering about and stopping to scratch himself with his cute little legs.

Re: Introducing Orko
Scottie does that running in and out of his sand jar. I've never noticed him roll in the sand though, only dig. Does Orko roll?

Re: Introducing Orko
Yes he does roll. It is so cute and always makes me smile. He rarely digs. Him and Scottie seem to be opposites.
