Wow, that looks great! Do you have a ReptiSun 10.0 t5?

yes I have been researching everything for the last 3 years. Now my only concern is night time heating and the bugs.

Perfect! Unless your house drops to below 65º on average, you won't need any heat. If you do need heat, just get a ceramic heat emitter (no light). And for bugs, I personally get dubias online. Cheap, and they last a lot longer

I'm still trying to convince hubby on the dubias I know he wont have an issue with the supers though. I need to learn how to take care of those so I am not wasting my money on dead buggies.

Supers aren't a great staple though. The little dubias just look like rolly-pollies, really. They're not that bad

guess I will do some test runs to see what the baby will eat and go from there.

Okay, sounds good. Also, supers shouldn't be fed at all until he/she is at least 16"

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
