This species is a larger body species. It is characterized by a clear/white body accented by yellow skirt and black splotching.
Temperature can range from 75-80 is adequate but I find not only require decent ventilation but airflow is key to keep air from stagnating and lead to possible stress issues. Can be kept on a bit drier side but do require a portion of their tank to be wet.
Feeding on carrots with success. Dry food powder/gel with high calcium and protien content.
Offer plenty of cover like flat bark or an area of leaf litter for the best environment. Mancea will have a tendency to burrow. Eventually becoming foragagers on top of the substrate. Adults will be out and about but have a tendency to mass under bark hids offered.
