Whats a safe wood for vivarium

[gecko cat]

I am going to be makeing a vivarium for a few panther geckos (pictus gecko). But i am not sure what kind of wood to use, i was thinking about plywood but i am not sure if its safe? If anyone knows the best kind of wood to use please tell me

Thanks,

Basic plywood is fine. But you have to determine how you're going to seal it to make it resistant to the moisture that is going to be incurred. Otherwise it's going to mold and rot and not be safe.

For that i was going to use aquarium silicone and a few layers of a water based polyurethane.

So it doesn't matter what type of ply wood it is? So i can use pine?

I am also makeing some styrofoam caves. but i am haveing trouble finding nonsanded grout, does if have to be non-snded grout or can i use sanded?

Hi

Plywood is good, you can try to make home with this wood and some other streaks of wood so that whatever suits them you take it out from them.
