Default *sigh* this is depressing

My A versicolor died last night. It was acting really strangely and at one point was hanging by one leg about 8 inches above the media. I moved it as I was afraid it would fall. It was really sluggish. On another forum it was mentioned that it sounded like it was perhaps getting ready to molt and stressing out. (In which case my moving it likely didn't help.) Also read on that forum that these T's sometimes die for no readily explainable reason.

Really bummed -- it was only about 1 yr old. Had it since it was just a wee one.

Pavel, sorry to hear that. I think I am getting ready to lose one of my T's She is my 1st and I am hoping she is just going through a phase. A. versicolor is a beautiful T. Again so sorry to hear that.
