Great decision :biggrin:. You are welcome.

Another thing, maybe you could PM TonyPerkins203 right here and let him know personally. The more compliments the merrier.

quick question elizabeth, if I use Tony Perkins setup, do I put the humid hide on the hot side? right over the uth? I would keep the uth at 90 degrees too

Best to locate the humid hide on the warm end of the tank. The warmth from the UTH increases the humidity and provides a semi-cozy resting place for pre-shed leos. It also aids in Django's hydration.

I'm ready for those pics: :yahoo:!

Okay so this is the home! no tiles yet, but I will have them soon! The warm side is on the left, with the log hide (warm) then in the middle is his humid hide and calcium, and on the far right is his cool hide and water dish. He already seems like he LOVES the new tank. Climbed to the very top of the climbable background and went poop right at the top hahah but everything seems good! the heat pad is under the log, and its set at 90 and I have the CHE on top and thats set at 85. Temps seem good, I just need to check the cool side, which I am sure is fine. Here is a pic of his tank and a pic of him asleep! He used to always be in his humid hide but I guess he loves the log and the UTH now!

Setup looks good! How could it not with such guidance :D. Thanks for sharing both pictures.

Only thing I might add is to maybe scoot the humid hide to the left so it is more over the UTH. But it doesn't look as if it would fit.

Sounds as if setting up Django's habitat has been F-U-N for you.

Yes I could not have done it without you Elizabeth, crickets4u and TonyPerkins203!

I will definitely scoot it over! Was thinking the same thing, was just waiting for your positive reinforcement! :)

Setting all this up was costly, but very fun! I am so happy I found this site and all of your help! I will post pictures when I get the tile in and will regularly update with photos and such!
