[QUOTE="smaugthebeardie3756, post: 1990596, member: 113095"] I recognize it as the same kit my guy started with. The Thrive one? I recognize that carpet, food bowls and cave. Just a heads up, I would definitely have at least one more carpet so you can switch them out when they need to be cleaned. They are a pain in the ass to wash and disinfect, so you may want to consider a different substrate at some point, like ceramic or slate tile or textured nonadhesive shelf liner that can both be cleaned with a 50/50 vinegar and water solution. As far as the tail, it definitely looks like some kind of damage occurred, poor guy. I haven't dealt with it personally, so I will defer to what I've read on here which is what AHBD was saying. Betadine soaks and keep an eye. Sometimes the affected part will fall off and that will be the end of it, sometimes it gets necrotic and keeps spreading and an amputation may be necessary. You can also try raw unfiltered honey or plain neosporin (NOT the pain relief kind) after the baths to help prevent any further infection. You can also try pangeareptiles.com for the lighting. They are reasonably priced and good shipping. I ordered a bulb from Amazon that was twice as expensive and arrived broken. Returned it and ordered from these guys and it was still about half the price even with shipping and arrived in one piece. [/QUOTE]
