Since the Fat tail forum is a little dead right now, I thought I would try and ask this over here.

I am going to be building a new place for my African Fat tail in a 20L. I would like to have some plants in with him. I have seen African violets and pathos mentioned, but what else is recommended. Any input is welcomed, thank you.

Also good: haworthia, aloe, jade, dracaena.

Oh you can put african violets in with fatties? How cute, I absolutely love those flowers. When I get my fatties that's the first thing I'm adding to their enclosures as decoration! lol

Just realize that if you have a lot of crickets in there they will eat the plant.

Ya, I have thought about the crickets eating the plants. But with my guy I put 5 in at a time and they usually only last about 15 minutes before he tracks them down. So even if they do a little nibbling I am hoping it wont make to much of a problem. Thanks for the input.

Yea, I've always had plants in with my cresties and leos and any damage the crickets do it never that serious. What's important is that they aren't toxic, so that anything the crickets eat doesn't go straight into your geckos.

But I'm totally getting african violets for my [future] fatties :3
