I heard it's the same light as reptisun 5.0 just different brand. No?
As for live plants. I want to but one in because of humidity benefit and
actually tried a (shefferella) but the crix were hiding in the rocks. I covered
soil with screen the rocks and pulled it out because I found 6 or so...
I saw the 16x16x30 complete package for chameloens at LLL reptile. Is this all
I need? Just spray 3x's and dust crixs as I have been doing? Right? I'm swaping for the bigger cham this weekend.
He gave me antibiotics because I told him he was sleeping. Did anyone see my pic of setup. The bulb is off to one side. Shouldn't this be enough of diverse heat. The temp. is 87 degrees 12" right below light. The other parts of tank vary from low 70's. The cham chooses the side with the light...
N. Canton OH-
Thanks Kevin-This is great info to have. I can see how this light can effect the animal. Though I do have the bulb 12" above highest basking spot and it's at one end of the tank (see attach) so it thermal regulate. Does this make sense?
The Cham can stroll to other end of tank to...
Wel the breeder uses aquarium's for all his young chams. I did buy
a 3" tall cage for when he gets bigger. Maybe I can section it off and use it now.
The bredder also uses MV bulbs.
As for dusting w/ Jurasi cal and flukers multi-vit. Feed them apple peels orange, dried seaweed, potato and...
I'll do that. But I should tell you guys just to get your opinion.
I've only had him for about 3 weeks and the breeder told me today if I wanted
to swap this guy with a larger guy he would do that. He's getting rid of everything he has to another breeder. Should I swap it out?
I noticed him once before about a week ago. Then today again he's napping for awhile. He's eating a 3-4 crix a day. I mist a couple times a day.He goes to drink. He's in a 20 g glass aquarium with stick and silk plants I got from breeder. Light is 100w Trex MV bulb. A couple nites it got down...
Here's his set up I just got the 100 w MV bulb and put it in. He seems to like the live shefferalla plant. I'll be putting 2 more plants in and takeing out fake stuff over the next week or two. Light is 12" away as instructed and the temp
seems to hold around 82.7.
I know the light has a lot to do with their appetite. So when I get
the MV bulb that should get him hungrier ..... right? Don't they depend on UVA light for appetite and growth?
Okay Gaerei- I'm going out to get 1/4 " crixs or smaller. I'll put 10 or 12
in at time. Dust calcium every other day and mineral opposite days. How long until I don't dust as often? I also clean by spraying paper towel NOT tank glass. It evaporates immediately. I put 1 sheferalla plant and...
Absolutely, I'm offering at 5 to 8 a day. He just seems be content on couple.
I noticed he seems to bed down early about an hour before light goes out he finds a high stick and wants to sleep. Is this typical?
I have a 75 g reef tank and I use a glass cleaner that I got at the fish store and it's safe for all aroung the fish. It says non-toxic. Should be good to clean bottom of tank ..... don't you think?
My cham is still eating about 2 crix and spending most of the time basking. The temps are 83...
Wow it seems I've started something here.
I'll get him a screened cage in a couple mths. The breeder told me I'll be good w/ a 20 g tank for a few mths. I'll be very careful not to roast him when I do get the 100 w MV bulb in a couple days.
He can eat 1/2 " crix.
So he ate a couple crix...
I think I will try the sheflera. I'll repot it using organic soil with a screen on bottom. Where can I get organic soil, Home Depot? Or any nusery? Are they
all safe? What to wash it with? Plain water? For that matter what's safe to clean the bottom of tank with? I've just been wipeing...
Okay... so I read the article as suggested. Oh thank you all for replying as this
is very important to me. I understand from the article, since I'm using a glass tank, I should lightly mist and keep temps down. Other than that I think I'm doing it right. I'll try putting more than 5 crix in at...
