Currently I am using ceramic tile in my leos enclosure and I am thinking about changing to a loose substrate for a more natural setting when I receive and set up my new pvc enclosure. To start I am planning on going Non-Bio and possibly full bio in the future. I am wondering what is a good loose...
Also as for ambient air temps. Ive always been a little confused of what those should actually be. With my current set up Ive been running for 3 years now and dont seem to have issues I get air temps in low 80's on hot side with 90 surface temp in her hot hide via heat mat and thermostat and low...
I will do that. If anything my thermostat has day and night settings so I can set my thermostat to run a lower night time temp if need be. Im expecting some confusion after the change but Im just hoping she will eventually look for the basking spot during the day after taking away her heat mat...
I am going to be moving my Leo from an Exo Terra 36x18x12 to a 36x24x18 PVC enclosure. I currently use a heat mat under her warm hide as well as a 50 watt halogen to keep my ambient temps in check. In the new enclosure I will be ditching the heat mat and going with over head heat using an...
Ok I have narrowed my enclosure choices down to 2 and hoping you could maybe give me your opinion on which one you would choose
1st choice is this one which I do like because of the extra mesh side venting but it is 18"H

I am thinking of possibly getting a second Leopard Gecko and I'm wondering if a 30x12x12 is actually a good sized enclosure to go with or should I actually maybe go a little bigger ? I know a lot of people say the bigger the better in the long run. I currently have a 36W x 18D x 12H for the Leo...
Yes I am aware of those products and they are awsome. I was just trying to find out if a uvb light on top of screen lid would provide enough for a Leo instead of mounting it inside enclosure. The enclosure I will be providing her isnt very tall so Im afraid mounting uvb inside would make it way...
So I recently found out that my daughters 9 year old cousin was given a baby leo and I know she has no knowledge and no way of taking care of it properly. I have pleaded with her parents to return it to the pet store with no luck but they are allowing me to at least make a good enough setup to...
Geckos need some kind of heat source coming from underneath that they bask on. They rely on belly heat to digest their food unlike other reptiles such as Bearded Dragons that rely on a heat source from above. Using a heat mat controlled by a thermostat set at 90 degrees placed under a warm hide...
I got my gecko ( Gretchen ) a little over a year ago and up until the past month she has been doing very well. I believe she is a she from what I can tell. I have her in an Exo Tera 18x36x12 enclosure ( see pics ) and for heat Im using a 50 watt halogen as well as a 50 watt Arcadia heat...
