I have had this substrate installed for a week now, and I dont really have anything bad to say about it. It packs down well, but there is still a little bit of looseness to it, so tile would be safer, but if you want to try something that is more customization and not just flat Natural Reptile...

Happy birthday Elizabeth Freer and thanks for everything you do for this community! I definitely doesn't go unappreciated!

How many of you feed your gecko by making them hunt for their food? I know crickets can bite but ill be doing this with dubia roaches only. Right now I tong feed, but i want to simulate a more natural hunt for my gecko. Hes always hungry and I know how much he eats, so I dont think he will let...

Here is a video of Gaz shedding. The coolest part is after 11 minutes, so if you dont feel like watching the whole thing but want to watch some, skip to around there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikXLqMgsPz0

My roaches go crazy for water and purina layena sunfresh crumbles chicken food.

Heres a video of Gaz eating a dubia roach. He always does this thing with his neck after he eats where he turns his head to one side and pops his neck. Idk why he does it, but he does it often and multiple times after eating. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mchDuFBQu_w

My girlfriend has a stuffed gecko that her mom was going to donate because all the kids have grown up, well my gf snatched it up and gave it to me. Well I ended up coming across a thread of people saying their geckos like soft rags to lay on. Yesterday I threw the stuffed gecko into Gaz's tank...

Hey guys, I havent been on here as much as I used to be, but I just wanted to show you all my current setup. It seems like I'm always tweaking things around so idk how long it will stay this way, but I like it the way it is so far. I threw the stuffed gecko in there tonight to see if Gaz would...

I had a lot of fun slowly adding to mine. It started out very plain and boring but i slowly added to it. I didnt make anything, but i still feel like i have a nice looking display tank. It started out looking like this

This is my display tank, i have moved a lot of the hides and driftwood around, but gives you an idea. I put the lamp up there only to take pictures. My over head heat is a CHE.

Would it be cruel to use have Gaz chase a red laser pointer like cats do? My temp gun has a laser pointer and when im checking Gaz's tanks temps he gets his hunting eyes, I think it would be cool to watch him chase it, but at the same time that seems mean.

So Gaz started doing this thing, after he eats a roach he will turn his head back towards one of his front legs, and then put his head back to normal again. Ive heard of other peoples geckos doing this, but when Gaz does this sometimes it sounds like his neck is popping, just like a human would...

Looks great, it will be perfect once you get the moist hide. I used to use eco earth in my moist hide, but my gecko always drug it out when he would exit the hide, not a problem just annoyed me. I now use a damp paper towel with no problems. My tank looked very basic when i started too! It will...

Great questions, go to your local hardware store or home store like lowes or home depot and get some aluminum tape. I searched all over for information on these tapes and on the internet, and they are all about the same. Aluminum tape is great because it is heat resistant and is very sticky. If...

So I got the 39 foot heat cable, and it gives me a lot more heated area than the 11 x 17 inch heat mat I had for my 40 gallon breeder. The cable was a little longer than needed. I didnt follow the instructions and looped them a little tighter than 1 1/4 inch apart, but with a thermostat I dont...

For those who already have Dubia Roach colonies, you may find cleaning the waste a pain, at least I know I did. Having to make sure no dubias escape while transferring them to a different container. So I came up with a bin that makes cleaning so much easier. I started off by going to walmart...

I bought some pieces of wood from a pet store a while back, but now i am noticing that small piles of dust are appearing under the wood. So this leads me to believe there are small bugs living in the wood digging holes through it and the excess wood is piling up into dust piles under the wood. I...

Hey guys, I havent been on here in a while, but the heat mat Im using now for my 40 gallon breeder tank is a 11 x 17, which only heats up 1/4th of the tank. I want to get some heat cable to tape to the bottom to replace my mat so I can get 1/2 the tank heated. What length would i need for a 17 x...

Is there any way we could get gu back on tapatalk. I realize it was in the past, but why not anymore?
