Last couple weeks I been putting veg in the tank with mealworms so the food moves etc and he's been eating more and more veg which is good.

I checked his poo today and seems like half the meal worms haven't been digested. There still quite obvious that they are meal worms..

Any concerns? Or is it ok

If you want to make the food move try morios if you can get them as they are better for beardies than mealworms
