George's tank is kinda boring 2 me...I'm thinking she needs some flare, a little color...IDK if live plants are ok, but if they are, what species are ok to put in the tank? Obviously I don't want 2 put anything that would be toxic to her. And if there are ones that are ok, which ones require the least amount of care?

Ive heard live plants can cause the humidity levels to increase. And the hight temps make most not survive long. IDK for sure, but on the bottom of the Beautiful Dragons nutrition page (Go past the foods then youll get to "safe plants for BD's) they list SAFE plants
Heres the link

I myself use artificial plants, they dont need water and care, dont die, can handle the heat . . . . works for me

there are a few that i found that are hardy enough to live in the cages.

Cage furniture: Provide branches to climb, rocks to bask upon, and shelter to hide in. Ideally a rock will be placed under the heat lamp that is above the under-tank heater. Hardy plants like Sanseveria, aloe, palms and cycads may be used.
