Hello,

That sounds fine, no problem. Yes, it does need to be kept in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.
Do you give it straight or, do you mix it with other liquid or a slurry?
If you mix it with a slurry, you could mix it with the food you were going to give then put the
bottle back in the fridge.
Leaving it out for short periods shouldn't affect it.

Hello,

Sorry! Yes giving it straight is fine so letting it warm up for a few minutes as you are doing is
perfectly fine. It will be easier on the system that way. :D

I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
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
