Default Terrarium Remodel: Curious about Paints
I'm thinking of remodeling my terrarium but I'm curious to know if there is a preffered type of paint that won't harm my Crested Gecko? Anyone know?

Most people use non toxic acrylic paints from what I've seen.

I've used acrylic house interior paint. It' really cheap to get at Home Depot. Just get the sampler size ($3) in how ever many colors you want. Just make sure you let it dry for like 3 days before you let your little ones on it. Otherwise there's no need to seal it because it's acrylic.
