I have used a book case for his new home I lined it with a shower curtain he seems to be able to get under the substrate and sometimes under the liner I have tried nailing it down and that hasn't worked will he get hurt if im gone all day and he can get under the liner? What else can I add to...
I have him located in an 80 gallon tank now the basking light section has it around 95 and the other side has it about 85 what lights do you use in your indoor enclosure to get it around 70-75
I have a 3 year old RT that is currently inside an old fish tank I think it is too small looking at buying some large tubs and connecting them for him to have more space. Does anyone have any recommendations on what tub and what size would work best for him
