Does anyone use thermostats on here for heat bulbs? I've always used thermostats in the past. I think i might put a 20w hallogen bulb on a 45x45x60exo terra viv (place the bulb directly on the mesh on the top). Would i need a thermostat to get the temps in the right range at a basking spot on a...

Hi guys. I might be getting a P. VN. Pastueri in a few months. As day geckos go, i am only keeping and have only had experience with standingi. I was wondering if anyone here keeps them or has had experience with them and knows how much more difficult they are to keep than standingi and are...

Hi guys, I was wondering what these guys look like as i cant find any pics anywhere, and someone near me stocks them occaisionally. Does anyone have any pics of ones they have owned, or just any pics in general will do. I would be very thankful of a reply. Cheers, Ed :)

I'm thinking of getting a few more phelsuma. I would like to get a few small ones all lined up in 30x30x45 exo terra vivs with a strip uv light across them and separate basking lights for each viv. Considering the vivs would be the same size, temps were needed the same, and basking spots in...

Hi guys, I was sold my adult standings day gecko as a male, but i'm unsure exactly on sex. Could you please tell me your oppinions. Thanks, Ed :biggrin:

Hi, me again :roll: lol Someone near me is selling a pair of lined and peac.ock day geckos. I hope to get a pair to keep in my 30x30x45 exo. I was wondering which species is easier to keep, and which is more rewarding to keep? I've heard that the quads need a large night time drop in temps. Is...

Hi guys, Im thinking of setting up a viv for a single lined or gold dust day gecko. Im going to keep him in a 30x30x45 exo, and i thought that a regular heat lamp will be too big. Has any one used hallogen lights as spot lamps? How effective are they for phelsuma? The person who sells day gecko...

Hi, My recently aquired male p. standingi is settling in well. He is eating (although not very much at the mo as hes still getting used to his new viv) nutrobal dusted crickets. He was being cooled over the winter, and hes got a 40w basking spot. Soon, hopefully ill put a piece of bamboo...

Hi guys. Recently i got my first phelsuma, a male standingi. He's really nice, and much more active than my cresties. I was thinking of possibly selling my cresties in the near future to get another species of day gecko (im also looking for a female for the standings). I have a 30x30x45 exo free...

Hiya guys, i recently got my first phelsuma, a male standingi. I set up his tank with bamboo ect in it. However, whenever I mist the tank, he loses grip on the bamboo, and he slips. Does anyone know why this happens, and does it happen to any of you guys? Cheers, Ed :)

Hi guys, I am thinking of getting into phelsuma. I was wondering whether to get a giant day gecko (Ph. madagascariensis) or standings day gecko as my first phelsuma (Ive kept cresties and a panther cham before). How much harder than cresties are phelsuma to keep, and could i keep a pair of...

Hi Guys, I hope to get a day gecko soon as they fascinate me and i saw lots of phelsuma ornata, phelsuma cepediana, and phelsuma guimbeaui guimbeaui on holliday in Mauritius. I am currently keeping a 5 week old crestie and i have kept a panther cham in the past. How easy are phelsumas to keep? I...

Hi guys, I have been researching on the net and fancy getting a pair/trio of either Ph. laticauda, lineata, or dubia to house in a 45x45x60 exo terra. Which one do you recon is the easiest to keep and breed for a beginner? Cheers, Ed
