    Arcadia Pro T5 concerns

    Makes you wonder what herpers did before Arcadia. I have been out of tha game for about 6 years and getting back into it. The amount of Arcadia marketing by fellow herpers makes it seem cultish like. Some ppl truly get upset if you are not using Arcadia and judge based on that.

In the osmosis chamber there are two outlets; one that will continue to the other stages and eventually to the reservoir and another for water waste. The waste is needed to flush the osmosis chamber of the filtered...

    It won’t be bad, but the extra minerals might clog your misting nozzles and fogger unit due to the added calcium from the mineral cartridge. Have you looked into a whole home filtration system?

    Feeding window duration

    Every morning you will want to provide enough food for the day. The idea is to simulate nature, in the wild feeding will correspond to bug activity which is usually mid morning before it gets to hot and evening before sunset. You will notice your cham will probably eat quite a bit at first and...

    Rapashy Super Pig?

    I would assume it works the same way as it does with color enhancing fish food. The various carotenoids will correspond with certain colors that when taken over time can enhance the colors of your fish. https://reptilesmagazine.com/beta-carotene-and-lizards/
