Default Newbie Question - 02-02-2011, 12:56 AM

rather than jump head first and buy the animal first then panic over their home and looking for a home first.
I am considering getting a Leopoad Gecko as so cute but also may change my mind and get a beared dragon so appreciate advice on both. (both would be juvies not addults)

I have seen two tanks advertised on ebay, would appreciate what you think of them and the size?

2. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/REPTILE-GLASS-...item588c6aff18

3. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vivarium-48-Sn...item2a0da674f2

bigger is always better.

the 2ft viv would be ok for 1 adult Leo.

None would be suitable for a beardy IMHO as they need a lot of floor space (both length and width ways)

I have opted for the following:

1 x Exo Terra Large (46L x 30W x 17H cm) Faunarium
1 x Exo Terra Cave (Small)
1 x 11" x 11" heat mat
1 x water bowl
1 x small cap for calcium
1 x heater/thermostat thingy
1 x thermometer

I will make a moist box from something i get from poundshop
