Yes, I would highly recommend reading it all. Each post has a # in the top right corner. This is post #191. At the bottom left there are page numbers(should be 1-10, this being page 10 if you haven't changed settings) ,just click on page 1 and start there.

I know it's a long thread, but read through it all. There's good info here that helped me get mine built. Mine has been finished for a little under a year and it's the greatest thing we ever could have done for our chameleon and for us. We fill the water reservoir about once a month, we trim the...

The one I have is for marine aquariums. Fluval sea 3.0. I just used that cause I already had it. I figure if it will grow corals and anemones, it will grow some plants. So far my setup is working out really well. 2 incandescent basking bulbs, one 36” uvb and one 36” led in an enclosure that’s...

It’s been a while, so without reading the thread again I recall @Brodybreaux25 used epoxy, not flex seal. Flex seal doesn’t cover very well. I don’t think 1 qt would even cover 1 full coat on an enclosure the size of his. If I were relying solely on flex seal, I would buy a gallon.

My first one didn’t work. Amazon exchanged it and I’m loving it now. It’s a Game changer for us. Even if it’s not perfect, it’s still miles ahead of the alternative.

What kind of enclosure do you have? the biodude has some videos on basic bioactive setups for the traditional screen cages.

Only a few months. Still relevant.

Those instructions do not work for the RCT-24 which is the controller that came with the starter system I purchased.

The instructions for programming the controller are not in the instruction booklet. It just says to go to their website. The instructions for the rct-24 are absolute garbage. I’m currently combing the internet trying to find some help. It shouldn’t be this hard to run a simple timer.

My wall is about 60% covered with large pieces of cork bark and rounds that I got from biodude. I just used the foam to attach and fill in between. I like the look a lot better than all one or the other.

Well it’s good to know. As I have to replace peat moss I will give eco earth a try.

Agreed. I’ve heard people “rescuing” sick fish by purchasing them. Like they don’t realize they just prompted the order of two more to replace it since it “sold” instead of dying. They are notoriously bad at saltwater aquaria husbandry(petco that is, petsmart doesn’t do saltwater any more)but...

Right but I recall reading somewhere that coconut husk was particularly harmful. But then again, when you read enough, you end up with a lot of crazy opinions. I do think it was in regard to leaf litter though.

Hopefully the price point will deter some of the impulse buyers who take them home and then find out what they’ve gotten into. If they don’t sell, petco won’t continue to carry them.

Yeah, I’d like to think that would make a difference but would it really? Do the location managers control inventory? I would think corporate decides what to send them.

Whatever you use, do it in small areas so you can get it on the silicone before it starts to form any skin, which can happen rather quickly. I did find I had some small areas where the moss didn’t want to adhere very well. It really needs to be pressed into a liberally applied and very wet bed...

Walking through petco the other day I noticed they had some new juvenile chameleons. I’m used to seeing the little $69 veileds they sell, but this time they’re selling $300 panthers. It’s disappointing to see given how much misinformation there is about giving these creatures proper care. They...

I was under the impression that coconut fiber is not good for Chams if they accidentally ingest it when grabbing food.

Does anyone know where I can find a bunch of free stuff that normally sells for a ton of money online? I’m just wondering cause I have bunch of friends who love free stuff. It’s definitely for a friend...

Thank you. Wouldn’t have been able to do it without the wealth of knowledge I found here. The flex seal in the aerosol can is NOT non-toxic. Only use the liquid version which just goes on like a really thick paint. I used GE silicone I multi purpose. Some of the big box stores carry it. It’s the...
