Yes, vary the diet, and put in new toys every now and then.

toys? like shells? rocks? i have a climbing wall which she has experimented with. i put in the salt water pool, which someone went into last night because there was sand in there this morning. i don't know if shelley or lemi came up or if it was bebe. so experimenting with more food is what you're suggesting right? bamboo is ok right? and dried bloodworms?

Dried bloodworms are very nutritious :D What bamboo are you putting in there? Is it live?

Are you growing them inside the tank? I don't think bamboo will grow well inside a tank.

nope, it's one of those "lucky bamboo" plants that you buy. i bought the one with the most leaves. i asked, before buying, if they sprayed their plants with anything and they said no. i don't want to unintentionally poison bebe, who is digging yet again. the salt water pool is a terrific success! i have seen bebe just sitting in it, not moving, but seemingly enjoying the water.
