    Away for 3 Days...

    Thanks, but I decided I'm just cancelling the plans. Darn spoiled animals.

    Away for 3 Days...

    I have to stay in a hotel for 3 days due to a work thing. I'm in a new state where I dont have any friends or family who can help me out. Will my 2 beardies be okay? Of course I will add extra food in their tank that they can pick at over the course of the days. The only problem is, I dont have...

    Heating and Lighting Questions

    I really don't know if the stick thermometers that people use to take people temperatures will work, maybe someone else could clear that up for you. I've only used the thermometers that have the long cord with a probe on the end. You can pick up one for only like $12 at walmart that reads both...

    Heating and Lighting Questions

    Like the other poster said, get a second opinion with a new therm. A 20 gallon tank is what? 12 inches high? Depending on your household temperature, that 100w should be all you need. I wouldn't think it gets that hot, haha. I have the MVB 160w for my 40 breeder tank and it keeps his basking...

    Heating and Lighting Questions

    Hmm, for the 20 gallon tank a pair of Leopard Geckos would be a good choice :D (two females or male/female only, not two males). Bearded Dragons need heat from above, so I would recommend the ceramic heat emitter, which is the non-light emitting heater that screws into the dome fixture...

    Heating and Lighting Questions

    It's recommended that the UVB tube stretches the length of the enclosure, for maximum UVB levels. Lots of people don't use them the entire length of their cage, but the longer the tube, the better.

    how much to feed?

    For feeding, you just feed him as many as he will eat within 15 minutes. Any uneaten food should be taken out after that (salads can be left in). There isn't much to do about the crickets unless you change the paper towels to something else. They are sneaky little bugs and seem to get...

    Installing Lighting (Custom built Enclosure)

    I actually have the second link, that's part of what inspired me to make my own! The first link is pretty helpful. Thanks a lot

    Installing Lighting (Custom built Enclosure)

    haha, yea I didn't think about all the different fixtures, but either way, installation must be pretty similar! I don't have the lights yet, in fact I haven't even started the viv yet. The lighting was just the confusing part and I wanted to try to figure that out before the project. I guess it...

    Heating and Lighting Questions

    It's really unfortunate what pet stores will do to make a quick buck. Even if complaining doesn't get you far, it still feels nice to do it, and just maybe, just MAYBE, you can educate the people giving out the bad information and they will actually start giving out the RIGHT information (we all...

    Installing Lighting (Custom built Enclosure)

    I sent out some personal emails and messages to a few people from the "Viv Thread Only" thread, but thought I would ask here for the whole lot of you to see, to hopefully get the most help. If you built your own enclosures, I was hoping you could help me with the light fixtures. I'm building...

    My Vivarium completed with pics!!

    It looks great! Where did you get those half log things that you're using as a bridge? I'm sure your dragon will love it :)

    Gutloading Question

    ANYONE?

    Gutloading Question

    I always gutload my crickets and other feeders before feeding them to get the most nutrition out of them. I was wondering, would the crickets eat calcium and vitamin powder if I sprinkled it on their food? Wouldn't that be the best way to make them more calcium rich along with the gutloading...

    Question about Mulberry Farms

    I will never order anything from wormman.com again. I had a horrible experience and the people were by no means nice and considerate. I do order my phoenix worms directly through PW.com... but they won't ship because of temps. Thanks for the advice.

    Question about Mulberry Farms

    I went ahead and entered my info and found out that shipping to my house is very expensive through them. They are nicely priced and all, but shipping to NY is what kills it. Well, at least I tried!

    Okay, thanks for the clarification.

    Question about Mulberry Farms

    So in other words, $19.99 isn't my final price? There is going to be shipping included after all in info goes in? It doesn't bother me, I'm just trying to shop around for prices. I just didn't like the idea of submitting my info just to find out what the final price was.
