New terrarium (Underwoodisaurus Milli)

[postskunk]

I know I was just kidding around, context is a hard thing to express in writing. I apologize cause this is a topic for another thread;-)

I definitely don't want to be responsible for getting off track from Marcs absolutely beautiful terrarium. Thanks again Marc, for sharing and great job:biggrin:

This is true. Like I said before. nicely done!

i keep all my geckos except hatchlings in exo terra tanks the only draw back i find is heating them as i have all mine individually heated.

Thanks for the reply's everybody.

No, this is not my first terrarium. I had Pogona Vitticeps/Henrylawsoni and Varanus Exanthematicus/Panoptes Horni/Tristis and Acanthurus.....but switched to geckos because of diffirent reasons. Now i still have Pogona Henrylawsoni 2.2, 2,3 Underwoodisaurus Milli and searching for other australian geckos.

I know a lot of people clean there whole decoration before putting it in....i don't. I put them under water and clean the visible spots.
I think nowdays a lot people are a little bit overprotective for there animals ....i just check the decoration and never had a problem and don't think i will ever have a problem with that.

I keep mine in a naturalistic terrarium, as I said before, but the substrate is tile. I don't have sand because i lost a lizard to impaction, so stay away from sand!

Not all geckos die if housed on sand and many species don't do well without it. In this case it's perfectly okay.

Oh, and speaking of new pets, I'm planning on getting a crested gecko. Any advice on terrarium size and cost of the terrarium?

I think that a 'velvet gecko' is Australian. Just an idea.

 

[Marc]

I think "velvet gecko" is a oedura species isn't it, i am not very handy with the english names......
I am looking for Nephrurus, diplodactylus and strophurus species....Nephrurus Levis will be my next geckos i think.

thanks for the tip anyway!

No problem! Just a thought. I was looking in to it recently. It's not quite my cup of tea.

......It's not quite my cup of tea.

how are Oedura not your cup of tea? they're some of my favorite geckos that I keep and have ever kept.

I think that they're a little small, and I don't have the steadiest hands. I'm sorry if I offended you.

They're only small compared to a leachianus. My marmorata are almost the size of a female leopard gecko and castelnaui aren't much smaller. most of my Oedura are between 5"-7" TL.
