So when I joined I was kind of in a rush/panic trying to figure out his lights. Here's a more official intro thread for Bowser.

He's a red citrus tiger.
Cage is 3x2x14in critter condo.
Reptisun UVB 10.0
25W zoomed basking light
substrate is slate - yay!


More pictures at: photobucket.com/bowserthedragon


Here's a few of him:

He's a beauty! If you're just setting up, monitor those lights & heat closely. If he can reach them, he can burn his nose.

The rock is actually a little off center of the lamp so he can't get anywhere near it.

I'm so happy, he wasn't eating any greens so I went and got butternut squash and carrots and grated them up with collard and mustard green pieces. He finally decided to eat greens and went to town on them!

Right around 8 months now. I just measured him today(sorta). When he's on my hand with his head at the tip of my middle finger, his tail goes all the way to the inside of my elbow, which is 15.5 inches.

A few more pictures of Bowser, and a couple videos.. There's a lot more stuff in his photobucket, I just don't want to fill up a thread with a bunch of pictures and make it take forever to load.

Man I love that tank! Where can I find one?? and Bowser looks like a BEAST!

Its a critter condo, I'd go with one a little taller if I was going to do it again. I'm planning on making a custom viv or 3 stackables (the addiction has begun already apparently) that will be wider and taller.

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.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
