lol - yes. So that it can just chill out and rest on the bottom without having to swim the whole time. |

a damp hide is a good idea, you might have to replace his usual hide...........maybe even both hides, to make sure he uses's it though |

I had this with a 3ft male royal! It had the dent when I got it so I gave it a bath in warm water then put him in his new viv with a damp hide (rubber tub with hole in lid filled with wet moss) n he used that for a day n it was gone! |

no, during ecdysis (the process of shedding) their eyes cloud over then clear again although their vision is still impaired, as a result a retained eyecap would look clear unless the eye was actually damaged or infection had set in - a possibility if left untreated. |
