i don’t know about you, but i would try to make use of more of that height. maybe if you made some taller shelf, or something like that. it would give the little girl more surface area.

You might want to try incorporating some cinder cinder blocks in there. The big ones with two square holes. If you stand them on ned there’s not only a nice high basking rock but also caves to perch in at two levels. I suggest cinder instead of terra cotts bricks becuae it’s courser sp she’s less lilely to need other things around it to help her climb. Although she still might.
People who think their 20 gallon tank is big enough just have no uidea how effortlessly those lizards wil utilize something more space when they’re healthy. They’re like little chipmunks, aren’t they?

I agree with scaly dog, I’d make more use of the height in that tank. In my case I have a taller rock pile for basking, with lots of openings in the rock so she can go in between and access different temperature gradients in the backing pile.

Otherwise you setup looks great!

with a tank like that,

I suggest adding some logs in there...
and things for her to climb.

I recently purchased some styrofoam background from Exo-Terra, and my lizard loves it, shes constantly running about on it. especially when its feeding time with the crickets, when they decide to climb the wall, watching her just jump after em is amazing, I wish I had a decent, digicam to take some pictures, and video.


Your lucky with your lizard, mine hates the water dish, so I have to spray the tank, and her included every day to make sure she gets some.
