if you don't have hermies at your museum and don't really care about them, stop reading now. I'd hate to waste your time.

For those who do have hermie experience, a couple of questions. We've had ours for about 6 months, my personal first foray into caring for them.

1. everything I read suggested that they don't molt very often--1x/year or so. All of ours are on their second round of molting already. Is this a bad sign? good sign? or was I misinformed?

2. the front of our tank is always covered in condensation. while the humidity is fine with the critters, it does prevent the visitors from getting a good look. The display area is ventilated and has fans. Any suggestions? 


that is all. 
many thanks!
