Ugh, that's why I never found it. Was looking in the wrong place. I did find the 18" somewhere else and paid WAY too much. Anyway, I mounted using the tape itself, which worked out great. Now I have these hooks I don't need...

I keep hearing about this "$10 fixture." It doesn't exist.

Okay, so I've read that people have used 3M Command hooks to mount the UVB fixture. My question is: How? Just use the included tape and throw out the hook?

Yeah, they do get tired of just one food.

That sounds like parasites.

Yes, someone did test it, and posted their findings here. While there's variation in the design of screens, the tests showed that there is a significant reduction in UVB even at optimal distance. What's in doubt is how much UVB is enough. If you're using an MVB, enough is probably getting through.

If you're talking superworms and an adult beardie, sure. Can even be a staple, according to some. But mealworms? The impaction risk vs the nutrition is the main problem. Superworms have softer chitin, which makes their fairly low nutritional value not as bad. Plus with a baby? It's like giving a...

Millet seed or alfalfa pellets work good I've heard.

Babyfood is a good substitute in these situations.

This remains to be seen since they're that new. Also, the bulb may be cheap, but you need a special fixture, which is not.

Keep in mind that a lot of what gets repeated as advice on this forum is just that - repeated advice. The people able to give expert advice can't respond to every thread (if they even come here.) It's possible Exo Terra fixed the issues that were causing the eye problems. It's possible that...

I'm glad it worked for you and your pet. But the common wisdom is to stay away from it. One anecdote saying it's fine isn't enough to contradict that.

I had a teacher like that. I pointed out to him that all newspapers online are .com He stopped insisting on .edu Just site your sources in the correct format. I assume you're to use APA citations?

Take the dish out and give him baths daily, he'll learn to poop in the bath only. If you take a nylon sock and fill it with oatmeal, tie it off, and hang it in the corner of your tank, it will absorb moisture and lower the humidity.

Yeah, relocation stress can happen even when just changing tanks. This is why people prefer to move them to the biggest tank they can rather than small upgrade several times.

The beetles are flightless and escapes are unlikely if you do it right. As for how to breed them, youtube has tons of videos, plus there's a thread on here about it.

It's funny, her tail is always like that. It's in stark contrast because she lightens everything else at bath time.

That seems normal, actually. Mine starts opening her eyes around 5:30am but the lights don't go on until 7am. It could just be because I'm checking on her then, of course.

There will be a charge of course, but the vet is able to do it.
