Ficus for sikorae

[Kevin McRae]

Anyone use ficus for their adult sikorae? I like the look for the plant, but too me it doesn't look like it would support a adults weight.

Any thoughts?

I use Pothos and Sanseveria for my adult pair.
I think that Ficus is too tiny for these geckos.

Kevin,

I'm not going to say that Ficus is appropriate but I have a young Ficus Benjamina tree in my fimbriatus tank. This morning I found Hydra laying on top of the leaves, he is about 10 inches. I have also seen his back limbs attached to cork bark with his front holding onto the leaves...

Thanks guys.

I'll have to look and see if I see any ficus with thicker branches.

I currently am using Pothos and Sanseveria with my adults too.

I have a four foot ficus in my terrarium for my White Eyes and they love it, I mean love it. You can never go wrong with Ficus. There are three or four different types of ficus. Some with larger branches and then some with smaller. These plants/trees hold water well and keep the tank regulated for humidity and supply a nice amount of droplets that hold to the leaves and make for nice drinking fountain for the geckos.

I'll have to take a look at a tropical garden shop sometime. Maybe I can find a thick branched ficus.
