Do you caulk or grout between tiles?

I was wondering if others use aquarium silicone to caulk, or use regular grout in between tiles, or just leave the gap unsealed?

It's up to you.

If you grout or seal the cracks, you prevent things from getting in the cracks and under the tile, but you can't remove the tiles.

If you don't, things will get in the cracks but you can remove the tiles if you want to clean them and under them.

I would leave the gap unsealed so you can pull tiles to clean --- many have grouted etc and regretted doing it because they then can not pull them to clean -- I use a thick shop paper towel under my tiles to catch the urate that runs down in between - I pull the tile clean it w/ vinegar/ water 50 50 in a spray bottle and replace the paper towel that is wet --- here is a pic of one of dragons tank

What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
