I have had Chomper for almost 2 months and he is growing very quickly! When I purchased him he came with a 20 gal long tank. I am working on upgrading him to a large plastic tub. Once I get a little further I'm hoping to upload a few pics and get any constructive criticism from those of you who are well knowledged with these little (soon to be huge) torts.
As I have it set up right now it's a plastic tub about 2.5-3 feet long and about a foot wide. I have a fairly thick layer of Eco earth (closest thing to coco coir I could find) in the bottom as substrate. I also have a medium sized dish tub as a humid hide, with some of the coco coir in, on, and surrounding the sides. I have placed a piece of slate rock in the substrate to serve as a basking spot.
If anyone can think of anything to correct so far, please let me know! Thank you!
I forgot to mention that Chomper was born in July!
