Okay, another question has arisen. I have decided to make a 'thin' 3D background, but have been struggling with a theme. I have seen a bunch of different walkthroughs for creating the wall and have seen a ton of pics both with and without 'walkable' ledges. I read a bit and understand the...

Not sure how helpful this is, but I am using Lowe's and a local furniture craftsman to help prefab my own custom design. The process is a bit extensive to get the way I want exactly, but I'm really happy with the save on money as well as personal design. They are cutting each piece I need to...

Thank you Tater, I can't begin to express my gratitude for you, this site and it's other members for how patient and helpful you've been. I will probably start a thread in the next few weeks documenting the enclosure creation and hope you stop by to see the efforts you put in coaching me through...

Would LED strip lighting work in place of the florescent option, or do LEDs cause problems?

Sweet, I am looking forward to getting everything ready for assembly, and cant wait to try this soil mix style. I am anticipating it will be much like aquascaping in regards to the need for patience in the initial beginning phase until I get my dragon. With the lighting in a dragon home, is...

Ok Tater, I will include the side viewing window, I will waterproof seal the enclosure seams and viewing windows below ground level, and get a protective layer to keep moisture out of the wood. Do typical dragons actually burrow, or do they just dig and more stuff around?

I think I will try that then, using the clay balls covered with a layer of landscaping weed prevention tarp. So I am making a custom tank, should I put a viewing window on one of the sides to keep an eye on the drainage and bottom layers? And how deep is your soil mix? I figure about 6" should...

Yeah I have a couple of aquascaped tanks, one with electric green tigers, corys and yellow glo danios with a jungle theme. The other tanks has swordtails and corys with a forrest theme. Now I am attempting to get into reptiles. Thank you for the advise given everyone. Tater, if I may ask, what...

Some of my local reptile stores have been telling me about clay substrates and 'tier/level' mixes and I was wondering how many have used this approach. I was told that there are a few ways to go about it but these seemed to be the two that stuck in my head. First is the 80/20 mix of clay...

So I have decided to take my old tortoise table and modify it for a dragon. I figure not many changes will have to take place so I'm hoping it will be a simple project. The tortoise table I'm working with is 8 feet long and 3 feet wide with 2 foot walling, no lid or top of any kind with 2...

Hello, I am a father of two children (3 and 5) and two dogs (7lb highland terrier and 70lb pitbull). I am basically wondering if my children or dogs pose risks in keeping dragons and if so how much risk. The ages of my children I know pose a risk to any pet in general with their excited learning...
