I have a box of click togethor vinyl flooring. Non adhesive floating floor stuff. Is it okay to use that for my beardie? I can put a picture up if need be.

Vinyl is unlikely to be textured well enough and depending on the type can give off unhealthy fumes.

Not sure actually. If it's texture is okay, I'd at least try sitting it out for like a month to get rid of fumes, and see if you can find any info from the manufacturer about VOCs (volatile organic compounds) given off by the product.

You could use non adhesive shelf liner, works great. Easy to clean & bugs won't get under it.

I would stay away from anything that that gives off fumes. Plus i was reading on Vinyl material if really hot which beardies need hot temperatures you could be risking a fire and fumes inside so not worth it. You can do what terry mentioned or ceramic tiling. Super cheap costs $9 for my 40/50 gallon tank. Naturally files their nails down but i would stay away from Vinyl IMO :D

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. 😔
