    Makes Me Sad, Concerned......

    Hello - So My Husband and Daughter got me the coolest cam for Shiva's tank (See Video). I watch her all day while at work. :) For the last few weeks though mid-day she goes crazy glass surfing, black bearding and acting really stressed out. It breaks my heart to watch this. Of course my 1st...

    New Outdoor Enclosure - BUT.....

    Thanks Everyone! Generally she enjoys going outside and sits with me, etc... So I am sure the issue with the enclosure is a vulnerability type of issue. I will try covering 3 sides to start and adding more stuff/hides (I intended too) and give it another shot this weekend. Keep you posted.

    New Outdoor Enclosure - BUT.....

    So I saw this online and had to build it. Thanks to my Dear Husband because it was harder than I thought on my own and turned out much larger than I anticipated lol.... This is only for the occasional supervised use. I was using a netted hamper and closing off the top but as she got bigger I...

    Is this a normal sleeping position?

    This has become Shiva's favorite overnight sleeping spot. It looks so uncomfortable but yet she seems relaxed. Those legs all streached out lol She heads up there about 30 minutes before lights out. We are new to having a BD and it is her 3 week homeaversay. So I thought I would check in. *...

    New Enclosure, Officially Named & Feeling Good!

    Thank you! And yes we are going to replace the glass. Already have 1 quote for $80 (both panels). Which is not bad but also not needed asap considering holiday shopping time. It was dusk when bought the tank and I thought it was just dirty lol. But for $100 I think it was a steal. :)

    Lighting HELP ASAP!!

    Ok - I found this 36 inch T8 UVB on amazon. The description is saying to use on top of screen? So can this be used inside the tank? Is there such thing as too much UVB? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006L11D8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

    Lighting HELP ASAP!!

    Need help fast. I am getting so confused on the proper UVB set-up. I got a new tank for our new BD. The enclosure is 4x2x2. The lighting is all housed inside. No wire mesh top. I had read that T8 is for inside and T5 for over wire mesh. After reading more and looking on amazon and reading those...

    Opinions Please....

    I am shopping for a BD home. Came across this on ebay. Any thoughts? I was almost settled on the Nat Geo 50 gallon Sanctuary but then found this. I like the idea of the ebay ones lighting being all inside vs. on top. I am new to this and just really want to make the best choice for the long...
