The 1st creature of my ecosphere was a Leech but her and her babies kill everything else so I've decided to move her.

I'd love to hear your ideas of what would be a perfect home for her.

So far i got:
a small jar with transparent lid so light goes through and a small hole for air exchange.

Inside I added her fav spot (a plant basket she hangs in since day 1, when not hunting)., some foxtail and a floating plant.

Shoud I add substrate? Never saw her going to the bottom.

Can she survive on micro life she catches or do i need to throw in some frozen tubifex?

Thanks in advance

    Best home for a leech? Fish hook.

    Since they need vertebrate blood for some of their diet, I don’t think you can morally keep them. Alot of their diet is invertebrates like snails (you could probably put ramshorn snails), but I don’t know how you would provide their blood needs… Maybe feeder fish?

    Oh, ok, got it, it’s not doable as I thought!
    Thanks for the replies
