    can she eat to much?

    I was breathing...so literally I can just let her kill off hundreds a week and it's ok? I had read somewhere were they shouldn't eat more than 30 a week? She has gained almost 2" these last 4 weeks.

    can she eat to much?

    8 months old now, we got her a few weeks ago. she ate 10-12 crickets a day plus some greens, we moved her to her new tank 2 weeks ago. This on has way better heat and a megaray UVB. Anyway, it took her a week to adjust, she ate a little here and there, then this week, she has been going to town...

    Can the habitat be to big?

    Well if need be, I could always setup thermostatic controls for the area. 2 days now, the temps have been pretty stable.

    Can the habitat be to big?

    thanks...right now I'm working to dial in temps. The basking area is hovering at 93-94, cool spot is at 73. I'm using a 100W mega ray SB and a 75W halogen to get the basking temp up, but this temp may not be accurate given the fact that I'm unable to measure the surface temp, the digital...

    Can the habitat be to big?

    pics are here. The entire enclosure is built in a 150 gallon tank. We used foam sheet and expansion foam to create the shape. Then it ws coated with 4-5 layers of grout, then faux painted to look like rock, then sealed with 4 coats of water based finish. We added a sand layer to all climbing...

    Can the habitat be to big?

    no sand, I've read to much bad about it. tils will be on the bottom. What we started doing tonight was building the interior as a 2 section back and bottom. All foam so far with a cave, ramps, rocks, and platforms. The plan is to foam it all, then grout coat it all, give it some texture for grip...

    Can the habitat be to big?

    we got him/her home here. It's about 12" long already and in need of the new space, it will be about 2 weeks before I can completely get the 150 tank done. The bulb they just got is a 10.0. I was originally concerned that the new 150 gallon tank for it was going to be to big, it sound like it...

    Can the habitat be to big?

    We are picking up a 7mo old today and it comes with a 20 gallon tank to stay in temporarily. We have a 150 gallon empty at he moment from a red ear slider. I was thinking of converting it into a desert habitat minus the sand, of course. The setup already has several basking lamps(mega ray SB)...
