hi there..i had recently posted about having found one of my creties having eaten some substrate in its tank..turns from the posts i kinda over reacted..and since i wanted a realstic vivarium i changed a couple of things...this is my 46 gallon bow tank with improvements..it looks ok..but i wish i could have turned out to be like some others ive seen here..but not too bad for a 16 year old rite?lol

the ground is now all moss with very little to no substrate which they could possibly ingest on accident..3 live plants..2 fake ones..a big coral rock in the middle..and 3 sticks and 1 piece of driftwood..

these are my 3 cresties when their not fired up at all..there all about 7-8 moths..the 1st n 3rd are a either over or under 4" by a bit..the 2nd is a tiny bit over3.5"..is that a good size for their age?..i know it might b a bit early..but it seems like the 2nd one might b a male..n the other female??its kinda hard to tell from pics but in person sure seams that way..also..the 2nd and 3rd one seem to like each other or something..their always together in the tank..they sorta cuddle up all day when they sleep..is that normal??lol

Nice vivarium! Good at any age :) I think your geckos are cuties. Not sure from the photos, but there may be pores on a couple of them. You may have to seperate them in the future if you've got a couple of males.

thx!it was fairly cheap too..i even have mushrooms randomly growing here and there..lol yup they sure r..i bought a 30X magnifying glass on ebay to see if they have pores or not.(also bought a scale to c if they r growing).im hoping there all females so i can keep all 3 in there and buy a couple males later on when they're ready to breed..if not ill have 2 buy a couple more setups..lol
ive also bought some exo terra night glo bulbs so that i can heat tank evenly as the small heat pad i had before i renovated cant heat through about 4 inches of dirt n moss..lol
